We are deeply saddened at yesterday’s horrific events in Tucson, Arizona.
The victims were John M. Roll, 63, the chief judge for the United States District Court for Arizona; Gabriel Zimmerman, 30, the director of community outreach for Congresswoman Giffords; Christina Green, 9; Dorothy Morris, 76; Dorwin Stoddard, 76; and Phyllis Schneck, 79.
Judge Roll was the judge who swore me in to the bar for the District of Arizona. We lower the Legal Satyricon flag to half mast for all of the victims.
May Congresswoman Giffords recover quickly, and may the gunman, Jared Lee Laughner, suffer deeply for what he has done.
