Reynal said that he also apologized for his actions in an email to the plaintiff’s lawyers who are representing the parents of one of the 20 young children slain in the 2012 Newtown, Connecticut, school mass shooting.
Travis County District Court Judge Maya Guerra Gamble addressed Wednesday’s courtroom clash as proceedings got underway on Thursday, saying, “Next time anyone wants to have an argument, you need to take it outside.”
