Nevada Judge Shot
Has anyone heard whether today's shooting is related to the Los Angeles Times recent expose on crooked Nevada judges? Sounds like the shooting was a hit to me.

The news reports are saying that he was shot in the chest while standing in front of a window on the third floor. It defiinitely sounds like a hit to me.

i havent heard anything on this and i have to leave here shortly. Did the Judge die from the gunshot wound?
from your post it sounds like either a hit or a person with experience with guns out for revenge. I will try and watch the news tonight & get all caught up on what has been reported.

According to the news he is not dead.
I've been in that Court house quite a few times... doing some business, and it would be VERY hard to get a gun inside.

The news reports are saying that they believe it was a sniper but they are not sure if the shooter was inside the building or if the bullet came from outside the building.
I hope this Judge is going to be okay.

No name for the Judge yet? Sure hope it is not Judge Bonaventure from the Binion case.

The 10 o'clock news reported that a "person of interest" had had a case in family court there. The reporter didn't say that the judge that was shot was the judge in that case or not.....just said the case was "there."
They are lookin' for the person of interest. No more details, like how they determined it might be this person---there has to be many people who have had cases there who didn't particularly care for the outcome, if they were on the losing side. So, wonder what put them on this fellow's trail?

I did not catch all of Nancy's show tonight but they did show a suspect with his picture and name. Sorry I cannot remember what the name was but they said he was a well known businessman in the area owned a pawn shop and another business. They said they think he had been to the court about divorce proceedings.
Nancy also asked the police was the wife in protective custody and the officer hesitated. I picked up that they have not found the wife of this man. Also he may be tied to another man that was shot in the park shortly before the Judge was shot.
IMO

Re: suspect
From the above link: Johns said officers also are looking for two vehicles, a 2003 Hummer with the Nevada license plate of 392 PWP and a silver Ford Explorer.
That Hummer should NOT be hard to find imo.

You were right, the Hummer wasn't hard to find. This article has it as orange, tho. And the Explorer as silver. The Explorer is what they are lookin' for now.

Man, I just saw this on the news just now and just shook my head...What a nice looking family and how sad that these kids will no longer have a mother or a father.
What a bonehead - I don't understand this garbage at all. Big man hunt out for this guy...
What a shame and it just did not have to happen. Didn't the courts know of this guys disposition???

I sure do wonder where this guy is.  With all of the construction in downtown Reno I can't imagine him making a fast and easy get away.
I wonder if he will kill himself.

You know, I was watching the late news here in Reno last night and one of the local anchors had spoken with him and a friend not too long ago about the judges practices. I got the impression that this was a total shock. He seemed well composed and his thoughts were put together well. I believe she said it was like he just 'snapped'. Tragic indeed.

My husband thought he heard on a news cast that he had also shot the ex-wife's boyfriend. Did he just dream that or did he also shot that person?

I have not come across anything like that.
But what a piece of work  imo.
I wonder if this guy abused this woman before this.

Mack kills wife and shoots Judge weller
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,199240,00.html
I just heard on Fox he was ordered to pay his X 10G's per month for child support.
Apparently he didn't agree with the order, and is currently on the run.

Why both, it seems to me that one or the other would have done the trick

They just showed the picture of Mack with his wife and kids on Fox, a really nice looking family.
Very sad, but guess he was pissed at both. I'm guessing the wife didn't want to be with him, and he was going to be paying through the nose. Now the kids won't have either parent - what a twit, imo.

it is sad. There was no need to kill anyone, don't these people have any problem solving skills, you know there are people-well there is a person- that I hate so badly for his actions... but this world is huge, and there is room for both of us, although I have yet to see his purpose or value as a human being... oh I ramble...
I just don't understand why these people can't just deal with what they've got to deal with in some other fashion

FWIW, I've heard that most judges consider family court the most dangerous judicial position because of the likelihood of someone getting violent.
Really sad case. I'm betting that this guy won't allow himself to be taken alive, and he may already be dead by his own hand.
 For the Judge's family and for the children of the shooter.

Yeah he really screwed up, but I think for the people that are left sometimes they just snap.
Guess we'll get more details as time goes on. Maybe thats it, you have these kinds of cases because of lack of coping skills, or society is just getting more screwed up.
People are jumping into relationships, having sex resulting in kids planned or unplanned and its snow balling. Then before they know it, their in a big mess they never foresaw.

Re: Mack kills wife and shoots Judge weller
That is so sad. I didn't know that he killed his wife, I heard that he had shot the judge. Now the children have no parents.

Geez, 10G's? Why on earth does someone need that much money to live on?????? That is insane.
The guy is really dumb for sure but I have to wonder what the wife was thinking as well?

I was wondering just how many kids one has to have to have to pay out $10000 a month...

I have seen several people on the cable channels that knew this man. All of them said he was the nicest guy you could ever meet and that he was well liked.
He has done such a foolish stupid thing. Some just cant let go of losing their family especially their children.
Imo, they will probably find him dead somewhere.
Prayers for all the victims.

Ocean, I agree I think he will take his own life, if he already hasn't.
