pollyannaish Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 A federal judge, John Roll, was killed in the shooting. Well, that changes things. It opened this up to a lot of other motives. I await the usual suspects asking us to understand the underlying cause of his Rage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rheo Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 From wikipedia. Judge Roll in 2009, faced death threats after presiding over a $32 million civil-rights lawsuit. The lawsuit was filed by illegal immigrants against an Arizona rancher. After Judge Roll ruled the case would be certified, threats came from talk-radio shows which fueled controversy and spurred audiences into making threats against the judge[2]. The threats materialized after one show, Judge Roll's name logged more than 200 phone calls as some callers threatened the judge and his family[2]. This resulted in the judge and his wife were under a protection detail for one month as Judge Roll was given twenty four hours a day, seven days a week security by the US Marshals Service. An US Attorney's investigation ruled that four men were identified as threat makers, but no charges were filed[2]. In a July 9, 2009 interview with the Arizona Republic, Judge Roll described the time under high security as "unnerving and invasive. . . . By its nature it has to be," Roll said. Roll also said, "It (the security) was handled very professionally by the Marshals Service."[2] At the end of the month, Roll said four key men had been identified as threat makers[2].

Rheo Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Why was Federal Judge Rolls and Rep. Giffords at the same event? I'm assuming it was regarding immigration as that seems to be the common thread so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming it was regarding immigration as that seems to be the common thread so far. * July 28, 2010, 1:53 p.m. A federal judge has blocked Arizona from enforcing the most controversial portions of its new immigration law but did allow other provisions of the law to take effect Thursday.
