Records show a Jefferson County Judge shot and wounded outside his courthouse Monday was overseeing a wrongful-death lawsuit filed by the suspected shooter. Nathaniel Richmond was fatally shot by the judge's bailiff during the altercation. Joseph Bruzzese Junior also fired shots. He underwent emergency surgery at a Pittsburgh hospital after the shooting and is expected to survive. Richmond was the father of a Steubenville High School football player convicted of rape in 2013. He filed the lawsuit against the Jefferson County Metropolitan Housing Authority in April.
