Jewish World Review May 20, 2005 / 11 Iyar, 5765 Let's not forget about the Lefkow murders and the need to protect our judges By Dan Abrams http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | Wednesday, for the first time since her mother and husband were shot to death in her Chicago home, U.S. District Judge Joan Humphrey Lefkow spoke out, testifying before the Senate Judiciary Committee, asking for more resources to protect federal judges and responding to recent attacks on our nation's judges. On February 28, Bart Ross broke into Lefkow's home, hid in her basement, waited for her to come home so he could kill her. Instead, he shot and killed her husband Michael and mother, Donna Humphrey. Ross apparently was angry that Lefkow dismissed his medical malpractice suit. He committed suicide at a traffic stop 10 days later and left a note. Judge Lefkow was also the target of a murder plot by white supremacist Matthew Hale, initially believed to be a suspect in the murders. In her plea for increased protection of federal judges, Lefkow touched on the more personal side of what the loss of her mother and husband means to both her and her family. JUDGE JOAN LEFKOW: Michael was a man whose excellent character and accomplishments at the bar and as a family man have been described in many recent news reports, and I will not attempt to recount them. On a personal level, however, he was a man who at the age of 64, looked to the future with hopefulness and anticipation. A litigant who was angry with me shot him in the head and my aged mother on February 28 of this year for no reason, other than that they were in his way on his road to murder me. He could have easily added my daughter, who is 16 years old and lived in our house, and me. 2/28 is our own personal 9/11. Since 2/28, our family includes a daughter and her husband who have to explain to their young children why their grandfather is now with G-d and they will never see him again. Two daughters who will not have their beaming father to walk them down the aisle at their weddings in the coming year, and two who will not have dad to be there to join the fun at their upcoming graduations from high school and college. From now on, they will have a father's guidance only through the memory of what he was to them. An entire family has lost its ability to feel safe when we walk through the door of our own homes. Beyond the family, there is a community of clients, friends, fellow church members, and neighbors who simply miss this man and woman who were significant parts of their lives in one way or another. Finally, I'm the wife who wakes up in the morning, not to a cup of coffee presented by my husband of 30 years, to reopen what we called the endless conversation of marriage, but to an open book that I was reading in an effort to banish the memories of 5:30 p.m. on the day our world changed forever. Just last Friday, Judge Lefkow was having dinner at a Chicago restaurant. A man apparently taped a profane letter on the window near her table. I said it before, I'll say it again: We need to spend the money to protect this nation's judges.
