Andrew Wilkinson, slain Maryland judge, remembered as dedicated, respected, even-keeled and unassuming

Just hours before he was killed last week, a Maryland judge known for being fair and even-keeled calmly explained his ruling in a divorce case following hours of emotional testimony. On the losing end of the ruling was the man suspected of fatally shooting Washington County Circuit Court Judge Andrew Wilkinson later that day in the driveway outside the judge’s home. For Wilkinson’s family, friends and colleagues, it’s an unfathomable end to an exceptional life.
