Federal Judge John Roll Killed In Arizona Shooting In 1994, Roll was one of several district court judges who held that provisions of the Brady Law violated the Tenth Amendment. That holding was upheld by the United States Supreme Court in the related case of Printz v. United States. Judge Roll was promoted to chief judge in 2006. Was he the REAL TARGET? Roll faced death threats in 2009 after presiding over a $32 million civil-rights lawsuit, the Arizona Republic reported: When Roll ruled the case could go forward, Gonzales said talk-radio shows cranked up the controversy and spurred audiences into making threats. In one afternoon, Roll logged more than 200 phone calls. Callers threatened the judge and his family. They posted personal information about Roll online HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF HIM? John McCarthy Roll was a federal judge for the United States District Court for the District of Arizona. He joined the court in 1991 after being nominated by President George H.W. Bush. Roll was shot and killed on January 8, 2011, in Tucson, Arizona.Death threats In 2009, Judge Roll faced death threats after presiding over a $32 million civil-rights lawsuit. The lawsuit was filed by illegal immigrants against an Arizona rancher. After Judge Roll ruled that the case would be certified, threats came from talk-radio shows which fueled controversy and spurred audiences into making threats against the judge. After one radio talk show, Judge Roll's name logged more than 200 phone calls as some callers threatened the judge and his family. This resulted in the judge and his wife being placed under a full-time protective detail for one month. A US Attorney's investigation identified four men as the makers of the threats, but no charges were filed. In a July 9, 2009 interview with the Arizona Republic, Judge Roll described the time under high security as "unnerving and invasive... By its nature it has to be," Roll said. Roll also said, "It (the security) was handled very professionally by the Marshals Service." Death On January 8, 2011, Judge Roll, age 63, was shot and killed along with several others at an event for constituents in Arizona in which he appeared with Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. Brady Bill Declared Unconstitutional by District Court in Arizona O R D E R The Court finds that in enacting section 18 U.S.C. 922(s)(2), Congress exceeded its authority under Article 1, section 8 of the United States Constitution, thereby impermissibly encroaching upon the powers retained by the states pursuant to the Tenth Amendment. The Court further finds that the provision, in conjunction with the criminal sanctions its violation would engender, is unconstitutionally vague under the Fifth Amendment of the United States Constitution. Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff Sheriff Richard Mack's complaint for declaratory and injunctive relief is GRANTED IN PART. The Clerk of the Court is directed to enter a judgment declaring 18 U.S.C. 922(s)(2) to be unconstitutional. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that defendant United States of America and its agents are PERMANENTLY ENJOINED from further enforcing 18 U.S.C. 922(s)(2) All other provisions under review are deemed severable from the offending subsection and are found not to violate the United States Constitution. https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18... IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all pending motions are deemed MOOT by virtue of this order and this case is DISMISSED. Dated: June 28, 1994 JOHN M.
