Greta live with this now - mentioning your point.
You need to give Greta a call QUICK!!
Did she really mention buckhead,,,ooops,,,borges?
I remember that...so that wacko is associated with the guy who's tried to take out a contract on this judge.
Quite a warm and fuzzy bunch of folks.
not by name, just regarding the information he noted.
"prestidigityping"?
How did they find her home? I would think that with the threats made against her, she had U.S. Marshals Service protection. From U.S. Marshals Service website:
Protection of federal judicial officials, which includes judges, attorneys and jurors, holds a high priority with the Marshals Service.

This was the judge who presided of a case involving White Supremacist Matt Hale and he was later sent to jail for asking people to kill her. I have a nasty feeling about this.
White supremacist church fined UPI 25 Apr 03
CHICAGO -- A federal judge fined the racist group once headed by white supremacist Matt Hale $1,000 a day for continuing to use the name the World= Church of the Creator. U.S. District Court Judge Joan Lefkow Thursday ordered the group now called= the Creativity Movement to shut down its Web site and to surrender its membership list. Thursday was the first day the fine was in effect. Lefkow last year ruled that the East Peoria, Ill.-based group was entitled to use the name the World Church of the Creator, but her ruling was overturned in July and the trademark was given to the TE-TA-TA-MA Truth Foundation of Oregon.
Oh wow .. prayers for her and her loss ones
The survivors must feel so bad. If this nazi guy did this, imagine how bad this woman feels that her dearest are dead because of her work. I would curl up and die.
She might have had bodyguards but this happened when she was not at home, a vicious thing.
A federal judge's wife was raped by a guy he had put away got out of prison. In Baltimore. The entire family had bodyguards for years after that as I remember. he threatened to come back and kill her if I remember.
We'll pray for her for sure.
I like it.
Trib reporting victims are the judge's mother and husband! Oh, God this is horrible!
If so then maybe other U.S. Marshals in the house were able to provide protection. Or maybe not.
Judges must never know when they are going to get a case that results in a personal horrible loss.
We have convicted this group and we have to remember the husband was a criminal attorney. A well known lawyer in BR was murdered by a client who got sent away and blamed the lawyer for his jailing. Got out and hi tailed to the lawyeers house and killed him. The lawyer was a polio survivor and in a wheelchair I do believe.
Prayers for all concerned....Good night.
It sounds like some sawed-off excuse for a Fuhrer got himself some payback. What a nightmare for Judge Lefkow and her family. I hope the Feds catch the vermin that did this and turn them inside out until they rat out their whole filthy nest.
I'm far beyond the edge of the Right wing myself, but I have zero tolerance for Nazis. If there is a lower order of life than that of a racial supremacist (no matter what color they are), it'd surprise me.
"Illinois nazis. I hate Illinois nazis."
