He didn’t plea down to discharging a firearm within city limits?
What is this world coming to?

Wow, so judges are not the lofty wizened saviors of democracy as claimed by the left? Their rulings are sanctified without question. How dare you question a judge!!! I’m thinking there are more like this one, and more hateful Democrat obstructionists than we yet know.

Anaheim Hills - very upscale neighborhood not immune to everyday ills. Notice the judge had a weapon in an ankle holster - apparently is armed wherever he goes - courtroom, restaurant, home...WHY at home?

So...... Big question, was he woke? My guess, yes!

From the article:
Ferguson's wife chided him to point a real gun at her. He obliged, pulling a pistol from his ankle holster...

Sounds like the charge is practicing "medicine" without a license. California has legal physician-assisted suicide since then-governor Jerry Brown signed it into law in 2016. The judge knew he wasn't a licensed physician.
Other than that charge, what's the crime? She's an adult, challenged him to shoot her, and got exactly what she asked for. #believeallwomen

I never understand how defendants think these “the gun accidentally went off and killed my spouse” defenses are going to work. What? You’re just walking around with a loaded gun in your house and it happens to go off as you are pointing it at your wife?

Based on that picture, looks like no love lost between son and mother. Not to justify the murder, but you gotta wonder if she was an Orange County Superior Beotch.

If he was a heavy drinker with a history of being out of control, she should have hit him in the head with a baseball bat and put him (and her) out of his misery years ago!
Wonder what his defense will be!!!! “My wife was a nag”.
To: Thank You Rush
“”claimed it was an accident.””
Sorry - THAT was the defense!!!
To: null and void
Nothing is sacred any longer, Nully.
It is a sad day in California when a Judge can’t kill his wife and get away with it.
He could not convince them that his name was Hillary Clinton.
Nor could he convince them that he played basketball for the University of Alabama.
It just wasn’t his day.

He can just do what democrat judges do and issue a temporary injunction or some other BS and declare he can not be prosecuted.
