INDIAN HILL, Ohio -- You can hear a federal judge make a distressful and chilling call for help after three gunmen attacked her husband and her in the bedroom of their $8 million Indian Hill mansion last Friday.

Guess she thought she was immune to criminals.
Her husband made millions off of Phen-Fen as a personal injury lawyer - wound up getting disbarred later.
Elitist snot.
Dlott: "Please send more. There's three black men with guns at our house."
Racist bimbo.
Went to the link to take a look at the comments and apparently they aren’t permitted. Pretty funny. Afraid of what people might say?
Well her husband is on the NAACP board.
Do they ever listen to themselves speak or see their own hypocrisy?
Better save this report.....it will be trashed as soon as the media libs realize what she just said....., takes them awhile they are not to bright you know.
She had liberal cloaking.
wow
Don’t need no stinking protection. She probably had a “”Gun Free” zone sign in her yard.
Eventually Darwin wins.
..... and for the rest of the story:
This judge’s husband is a disbarred attorney.
Federal Judge, Disbarred Atty Robbed At Gunpoint In Home
By Andrew Strickler
Law360, New York (December 7, 2015, 7:59 PM ET) — Three Ohio men were arrested late Friday after they broke into the home of a federal judge and her disbarred attorney husband and robbed them at gunpoint, a law enforcement official confirmed Monday.
An officer in a Cincinnati suburb was monitoring traffic at about 10:45 p.m. when he saw a car carrying three men go through a stop sign without stopping, said Lt. Chris Zumbiel of the Madeira Police Department.
The officer made what he initially believed to be a routine traffic stop, Zumbiel said, until he noticed a large number of fur coats in the car.
“The car was filled with them and the truck wasn’t even closed, they had so many,” he said.
A search of the vehicle also turned up a wallet with identification belonging to Stanley Chesley and other property in the car belonged to Chesley’s wife, U.S. District Judge Susan Dlott, he said.
Minutes earlier, the trio had kicked in the basement door of the couple’s home and threatened Chesley and Dlott with guns before fleeing with property, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer, which cited a police report and the Harris County prosecutor’s office.
The three men — Terry Jackson, 21, Darrell Kinney, 20, and Demetrius Williams, 20 — were each charged with two counts of aggravated robbery and two counts of abduction.
Kinney was additionally charged with one count of vandalism and one count of escape after he kicked out the window of a police car while in custody, Zumbiel said.
Chesley, a once-prominent plaintiffs attorney, was among a group of lawyers who represented a class of users of the diet drug fen-phen and were accused of siphoning tens of millions of dollars from clients after a $200 million settlement with the drug’s manufacturers.
Chesley was later disbarred for his involvement in the fee scheme; a Kentucky judge last year ruled that Chesley was liable for the uncollected portion of a $42 million judgment stemming from a lawsuit brought by the plaintiffs he represented.
A representative of the Indian Hill Rangers and a prosecutor’s office spokesperson did not respond to messages Monday.
Judge Dlott was appointed the federal judiciary in 1995 by U.S. President Bill Clinton. She served as chief justice of the state’s southern district from 2009 through 2014, according to a court biography.
A 2009 story in the Cincinnati Enquirer describes the Dlott-Chesley home as an “elegant French chateau” and the single most expensive single-family home listed at that time in the Cincinnati area. The home went on the market with an $11.9 million price tag before the purchase, according to the paper.

Chesley won billions of dollars for his clients in other mass torts, representing clients suing Pan Am over the Lockerbie terrorist attack and clients suing Dow Corning in controversial breast implant litigation.[1][3] Chesley was one of the "inner circle" of the plaintiffs' bar that negotiated the controversial $246 billion tobacco settlement on behalf of state governments, and settlements against the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Cincinnati for sexual abuse.
Controversy
Chesley was named in a lawsuit related to the settlement of fen-phen litigation in Kentucky. Former clients sued Chesley and three other plaintiffs' attorneys for allegedly breaching their duties by diverting most of a $200 million settlement fund to themselves with only one third to the plaintiffs.[5] Judge Joseph F. Bamberger approved the settlement, but resigned when it was revealed that he was paid $5000 a month as a director of a charitable entity funded by the settlement and directed by the attorneys.[5][6] Chesley, who collected a $20.5 million fee for negotiating the settlement, maintained that he was not co-counsel for the plaintiffs and was not aware that the attorneys were deceiving their clients and that he therefore owed no duty to the 440 plaintiffs[3]
Disbarment and retirement
On February 22, 2011, Kentucky trial commissioner William L. Graham issued an order recommending Chesley be disbarred for his actions. The Kentucky Bar Association's board of governors accepted a trial commissioner's recommendation on June 14, which called for disbarment and restitution of $7.6 million to plaintiffs.[7] It was determined that Chesley violated several ethic rules.
The Kentucky Supreme Court disbarred Chesley on March 21, 2013, unanimously voting to uphold the 2011 recommendation.[1] Chesley faced disbarment in Ohio due to reciprocal agreements between the two states; however, he opted to voluntarily retire from the practice of law in Ohio instead of go through the state's disciplinary process. The practical effect of his retirement in Ohio is the same as if he had been disbarred - Chesley will never be able to practice law in the state again.[8][9] On Nov. 18, 2013, Chesley was removed from the list of attorneys allowed to practice law before the U.S. Supreme Court.[10]

In 2004 Chesley purchased what is believed to be the most expensive single-family home listed in Greater Cincinnati, Ohio. The home includes six bedrooms, seven full bathrooms, custom chandeliers, wine cellar, two four-car garages with apartments on top and 27,000 square feet (2,500 m2) of living space. The French chateau style home sits on 5.3 acres (21,000 m2) nestled into 300 acres (1.2 km2) of private green space.[1]

Talk about profiling!
He’s 79 and they really messed him up, giving him a broken pelvis, a concussion, and three broken vertebrae in his thoracic spine. No way he’ll fully recover.

It Should Have Been a Defensive Gun Use: Federal Judge Susan Dlott Edition
Wed, 12/09/2015 - 20:00
It’s often said that a liberal is a conservative who hasn’t been mugged yet. As a former liberal who was mugged at knife point, copy that. Which brings us to Susan J. Dlott, Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio. President Bill Clinton appointed Dlott after her husband Stan “the father of class action law suits†Chesley raised millions for the Democratic Party. Fast forward 21 years [via news.yahoo.com]: “Judge Susan Dlott fled [her $8 million mansion] barefoot in her nightgown and through the woods, banging on doors for help.†The story continues . . .
One neighbor let the judge in.
Her husband, a prominent 79-year-old attorney, was being held at gunpoint at their house.
Dlott told the 911 operator: “My husband and the dogs are still there, there’s three black men with guns and masks in our house. Call the United States Marshals. I’m a federal judge, call the marshals.â€
Wait. Are we still allowed to identify home invaders by race? Can we pull rank in a 911 call? (I’m America’s most-read gun blogger! Send a well-armed militia!) Why wasn’t Judge Dlott’s mansion alarmed and equipped with a panic button? And why didn’t Dlott trust the local police/SWAT team to perform the necessary rescue mission?
That’s a mission that may not have been necessary if the Judge and/or her husband had been armed. Home carry people, home carry! Especially if you’re a federal judge living in a big house with a seriously wealthy significant other known to rip people a new you-know-what in court to prise big bucks from legally challenged defendants.
When cops got there, they found the judge’s husband had been thrown down a flight of stairs.
The three gunmen had already fled and three suspects were later arrested.
Let’s see what happens if and when Judge Dlott gets a gun rights case before her court. Probably nothing different, but you never know….
Uh huh.
I don’t mind higher bonds for these guys because of the victim. In some ways, judges (and prosecutors) ARE more important than most of us in this regard: they are on the front line of the criminal justice system. They cannot be making decisions because they are afraid for their safety or the safety of their families. (of course, they shouldn’t be making decisions because of bribery or favoritism either, but that’s a different discussion.)
Oldplayer
Stupid burglars! Fur coats have no value today. You cannot even give them away.
Her old man was a shyster.
She’s liberal, he’ disbarred.
Meh.
