I thought nothing could be more horrible, but she died of a natural cause. I can't imagine if she had been murdered.

instead of killing her? I would much rather die than lose my only child. I'm just sick for her.

and he was shot. Judge apparently was in a basement at the time so didn't come to the door.
So it's hard to figure out if gunman wanted to kill the judge or wanted to kill her relatives.

Certainly whoever opened the door and anyone he could get a shot at. But as others have said, the killing of this judge's only child is an endless wound, something that never heals.

Despicable.

And reiterate Trump's language about the Hispanic judge that reviewed Trump University.
