A convicted Las Vegas felon brutally attacked a fellow inmate during a hearing inside the same courthouse where another man jumped over a bench and attacked a judge just one month ago.
Dustin Langham, 18, was sitting next to several other inmates inside Clark County District Court Judge Bita Yeager’s courtroom when he suddenly unleashed a barrage of blindside punches at Berdon Bridge on Feb. 1.
Courtroom cameras captured the chaotic moment Langham began his assault, landing several hits on the target as court personnel rushed to separate the two men, according to the video, obtained by 8NewsNow.
The stream suddenly switched to a shot of Yeager raising her arms as she watched officers handcuff Langham.
Court marshals and other officers removed all the other inmates from the courtroom, according to the outlet.
Langham had just pleaded guilty to biting a corrections officer’s hand during an incident last year, when he was 17 years old.
He was charged with several counts of battery to an officer dating back to the December incident when he bit the officer inside the Clark County Detention Center before throwing a brick at another, the outlet reported citing court documents.
Langham had already been in legal trouble before his previous two incidents.
In 2022, he was charged with and subsequently pleaded guilty to battery with substantial bodily harm, a felony, according to court records viewed by The Post.
Before he was attacked, Bridge had pleaded guilty to one count of felony attempted ownership or possession of a firearm by a prohibited person, court documents show.
He was sentenced to one to four years in prison by Yeager, as part of his plea deal, according to the outlet.

The latest courtroom attack comes a month after Deobra Redden, 33, went viral when he launched a flying attack at Clark County District Court Judge Mary Kay Holthus in the same building.
Redden was attending a sentencing hearing for an attempted battery with substantial bodily harm charge, when Holthus decided to sentence him to jail time instead of granting him probation.
The three-time felon launched his attack because he wanted to kill Holthus, telling officers “Judge has it out for me, Judge is evil.”
Last week another inmate attack occurred, this time in the hallways of the courthouse, when an alleged teen sex predator was punched in the face.
Yousuf Azami, 59, appeared in court on Jan 23. for a preliminary hearing on charges of kidnapping, lewdness and sexual assault on a teenage girl, when he stepped out of the courtroom and was confronted by Glenn Cromwell Jr., who is believed to be connected to the victim in the case.
The two appear to briefly exchange words before Cromwell socked Azami right in the face — hard enough to knock him on his backside, according to a clip obtained by KLAS.
Cromwell continued to hit and kick Azami as several people, including a police officer, sprinted towards them and broke up the fight.
He was charged with battery.
