An inmate at Broward County bond court punched a public defender in the head on Wednesday morning.
His victim was Fort Lauderdale lawyer Julie Chase.
Staff wasted no time in restraining the attacker, who was captured on video approaching Chase from behind with a left hook in a crowded waiting area. Nearby inmates recoiled in shock, while they waited for a judge to set their bond and release conditions. Bailiffs then moved in to drag the man away.
