In court, Rivas allegedly gestured toward Soto’s family, according to WOAI. Relatives of the victim jumped the partition to beat up Rivas.

Authorities did not explain what this gesture was supposed to be. Neither did they suggest why the victim’s family attacked the defendant then and there. In any case, footage shows several people whaling away on the same figure garbed in orange. According to the sheriff’s office, bailiffs broke up the fight. More family members became disruptive, they said in the report.

Authorities are charging two men and two juveniles with assault and disrupting court proceedings.
