China’s judges have become the most recent targets of deadly assaults.

Three judges were shot to death by a postal bank-security officer in Hunan Province on June 1. One week later, in Guangxi Province, a couple splashed sulfuric acid on six court officials, including three judges, inflicting varying degrees of injuries.
