A transgender would-be assassin from California was sentenced for attempted murder of a Supreme Court Justice. “This attempt against the life of a Supreme Court Justice was an attack on the entire judicial system that cannot go unpunished,” said Attorney General Pam Bondi. Earlier this year, Nicholas John Roske, of Simi Valley, California, pleaded guilty to attempting to kill the U.S. Supreme Court Justice. He then took a taxi from the airport to Montgomery County, Maryland, with the intent to kill the Supreme Court Justice. Marshals, protecting the residence of a Supreme Court Justice, observed Roske arrive in and get out of a taxi in front of the residence.
