#Maryland #Crime #Manhunt
A Rabbi in Detroit was assassinated yesterday at their home.. (probably back page story to the pro Hamas democrat media).
Looks a bit like Hank Williams sr.
Crazy how he pulled this off and hasn’t been captured. Not condoning what he did but messing with people’s kids, livelihood or bullying them can push mentally unstable people to the brink. People in positions of power, whose decisions can substantially affect the lives of others, should keep this in mind.
@aaa38388 Doesn’t make it True. These women LIE all the time — we know this.
@mikejohns777 I rebuke you and this enemy in The mighty name of Jesus, first of all there was evidence, you need to use logic. She had evidence you don’t. To make a clear concise analogy it has to be coherent. This isn’t throwing things out there and making it up as you just did. Please be a human intelligent being and not say something disgusting like that. It shows how sick men are, why would you say something like that to prove what? You’re a sick person like he is?
Sorry you don’t know that
@mikejohns777 how do you know there’s no proof? Nothing has been reported to say that
@Jaco at least you’re proud to support domestic violence
Democrats. SMH
😢 geez , no security but $$$$ for war in a whole other country
Yes the united states can do 2 things at the same time. You obviously can’t so let the capable handle it😊
@Drexl SpiveyEveryone’s got an opinion. You have that right…for now.
How much money should the taxpayers be on the hook on “security” for judges? What does that security consist of? A 24/7 hour team safeguarding the home? Law enforcement assets being taken out of crime filled cesspools and re-directed at protecting a judge as he sleeps in his home?
Don’t be a dirty judge we got to many of them there are unhinged people out there gotta be careful 100% he knows the judge
He’s not a “dirty judge” for crying out loud; stop smearing a dead man shot by an unhinged “family man.”
I agree but should be judged on a case by case basis
@x77punk77x even if he didn’t deserve can’t be playing with unhinged peoples lives stay humble
Yep.
@M.M. Zorndid you know the judge personally?
Pedro Manuel argote, but somehow, he’s “white.” Next up from media……..”it’s trumps fault.”
Based af
That’s why public records should be off the internet and only accessed by Government entities.
👍
Judges Residential addresses should not be made Public!
Donald Trump will find it and post it online, he posted Leticia James address on Truth Social
why not crooked judges should have much to fear
They’re public servants. They don’t deserve any special treatment.
If judges weren’t crooked they won’t have to worry. It’s called freedom of info and they are citizens too
Denied the man the right to see his children lol
A right I’m sure he lost fair and square given this was his (over)reaction. I don’t get the people in these comments defending this man
@Delvercettiagree. Weird comments
@Delvercettitreated like a convicted criminal over wife’s accusations and arguments and a judge believing them. She had four kids with the guy and suddenly he is a monster that needs to be made homeless, bankrupted, childless and impoverished for the next 15 years… an indentured servant.
Pedro decided he wasn’t up to work into his senior years to pay 1000’s to a wife who took his kids. He blamed the judge that went along with her…. He was the one with the authority to destroy him so Pedro fought back.
Yep.proved the judges point.
This case has Duke Lacrosse team railroading written all over it …
@Muh Glen SchlopProve it! The cases shown was an allegation during the divorce…please show me one police report where he was investigated or charged with DV…..🤡
@Muh Glen Schlopyou have a history of abusing little boys
Only for all the bitter angry “men’s rights” misogynists, Clyde
no it doesn’t, you just hate women and children
@Muh Glen Schlopif he had a history of domestic violence he wouldn’t have been able to possess the gun legally! Have you not paid attention to the story sheriff was asked if he was a legal gun owner and the sheriff stated he was a legal gun owner! If he was such a bad guy and his parental rights was taken away he shouldn’t have to pay the worthless mom child support
Judge did not deserve to die but he did take away the man’s kids
I don’t know… maybe..
@Splinter In The Mind who knows , if this is truth ( that judge take away kids)???????????????????????
being biased has consequences .
I hope you are protecting the wife and children
Oh no. The wife and kids. You know they’re being protected. Its probably just the wife who’s in danger.
Yes.hopefully her family is protected. U
@MichelleI’m sure trump doesn’t care he probley planned it really that’s why there trying to kick him off the ballott
What MSLSD hasn’t blamed Trumps bullying tactics for this yet.
A martyr really…. just ain’t happened yet…. there really isn’t anywhere to hide but men are really not even heard in court even if they get the chance to speak. Treat people with equality under the law in courts and most people can accept a lose….but when you treat em bad by force for seemingly no reason…..well…..
Maybe the government should learn to keep their nose out of our homes
and ours body
After my experience with a couple of Maryland judges and their attitudes, I can see how this could happen. Just saying.
No different than Cops
I’ve been there myself, and yes, I agree.
NEVER.this creep will be caught soon.
Criminals tend to not like judges or justice
@Michelle — That’s starting to look doubtful …
This was posted 6 hours ago but I thought yesterday they said they found that vehicle with that license plate so is he still driving the truck I thought they said authorities found it
Sic semper tyrannis…
Always A two side of story
No.
Why wasn’t this POS in court.?
Check his mothers basement, thats where all democrats hide.😂
Trump will lose. Basement > dirty Trump
Oh, now we know he did it, despite not even knowing whether the guy owned a gun? And these clowns pretend to be reporters? Nauseating.
A Judge would not make such a life altering decision without some merit…
Wrong.
In an Ideal world No. COME DOWN TO REALITY PLSS
You’ve clearly never been to family court. Sit in the gallery for a day. Your views will quickly change.
Check out this guy Fred, he actually lives in the land of make believe lol
@Kenneth Smith Men are treated like criminals in family court. It is pure evil.
❤Pedro for president ❤
Snitches get stitches
Is he illegal? Funny how no mention of race or political association, isn’t it?
If it’s a white guy, conservative or Christian or Gid forbid, Trump supporter they blast details!
That poor judge I hope he had time to ask for forgiveness for all the lives he’s destroyed over the years
Amen and huh?!
Doubtful … Probably sold his soul 30 years ago …
A judge… this goes deeper than the news knows.
Oh great; it’s the conspiratorializing contingent yet again — predictable & baseless
We love you Pedro❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Pathetic simping on a child assaulter and murderer of a public official.
People don’t want to put up with dirty judges anymore
Make it to my place and your safe.
Judge not lest you be judged
Hmm wonder why this got National attention vs others that get shot ??
Prayers for the family of a Judge who died protecting other families. Godspeed Sir
Absolutely.
Judg WUAT I DED NO BARE CHELD FOR NATHING
News is never good news.. It is always bad crime stories…. Enough already…
*read the comments… people are not surprised… and that’s putting it nicely* *”family court” is ALWAYS decided for the wife/plaintiff with this one-sided outcome warping many judge’s perception of power… what could possibly go wrong?*
Judges are no different than the rest of us.
Like hot is no different than cold. Got it.
Better give him the 30+ years of death row when you catch him.
Blessed Pedro
Too many variables here w/how corrupt you people have become, maybe both @ fault here, maybe not?😐 The American justice system as we know is quite poor👎
In your dreams Pedro..in your dreams
Hahahahahhahahaha
GIMME SOME CHON CHON !!!
This is what happens when American laws always favor the women’s…sometimes you can clearly see its the wife’s fault but yet , the husband has to pay child support smh..
The man should always have to pay support even when reversed. Custody is the big issue
Did Argote have dual nationality???….He could be in Mexico, Colombia or any other S.A. Country by now.
Legal?
To quote Wreck-It Ralph, “you are bad guy, but this does not mean you are *bad guy*.”
This is something you only hear of in 3rd world countries 😮 an american judge getting assassinated outside his home and they still haven’t caught the guy 😳
Like police officers and military. Judges should know the risk before being a judge. He should had security for himself. Why not point out the INSTALLED BY CLINTONS AND OBAMAS JUDGES? THEY PROBABLY ALL EPSTEINS FREQUENT FLYERS.
It’ll be funny if they find Pedro didn’t do it, and he sues all these news channels for stating that he killed a judge.
Extremely unlikely; stick to fiction
Geez.cameras will prove it.get YODA on this case
There are issues with the laws.
Women can make false outcries and the law supports her.
A man can make a truthful out cry and it goes ignored.
Speaking from experience.
All the proof of abuse by my exwife againt our 8 year old son, solid proof…DA has done nothing.
Mom makes up a false narrative and keeps making them, and i have to keep protecting myself paying lawyers. If women lie to keep dads away from kids, then they
should have to pay the dads attorney fees and do jail time.
Biblical a Dad has just as much right to his kids, but the morals of this country has been replaced. With a Bias system.
Kids are the ones who are being effected.
Judged messed around and found out what happened when you take a man’s family away.
Stripping a man of his natural or in this case legal rights to his children is inhumane.
Geez.murder is never never ok.what a POS.
Facts
Your people are experiencing this with their treatment of Black people and other minorities, fentanyl, the sun, and declining birth rates
This was bad reporting. Pedro has zero history of any criminal convictions. The reporter can’t say he has a history of domestic abuse if he has no convictions. Slander reporting isn’t cool. Maybe he had a history of arguments but if you’re never convicted of domestic abuse you can say he had a history of domestic abuse. The media always wants to paint the man in the worst light. The fact is this man lost everything when a judge passed a harsh judgement against a dad that obviously cared and wanted shared custody. This judge forgot one lesson and maybe he skipped class today day in law school. It’s called there’s another form of justice and that’s street justice. Judges must never forget they’re never out of reach for street justice. Stop screwing over dad’s.
Exactly
Judge Bin Wilkinson has learned his lesson …
Playing god with people’s livelihoods is a deathwish.
We ain’t helping you. Stop taking our kids and homes from us just cause the moms want to break up.
you took something from him he took something from you
Who Cares
