A $10,000 reward is now being offered for information that leads to the arrest of a man accused of fatally shooting a Maryland judge in a 'targeted attack' outside his home. The U.S. Marshals Service said Friday that it is seeking the public's help in finding Pedro Argote, 49, who is wanted in connection with the killing of Washington County Circuit Court Judge Andrew Wilkinson.
On Thursday morning, hours before the shooting, he had presided over a hearing in the case and granted Argote's wife an absolute divorce from him as well as sole legal custody of their four children, ages 12, 11, 5, and 3. Argote did not attend the hearing.
