Investigators believe Pedro Argote killed Maryland Judge Andrew Wilkinson in Hagerstown hours after he ruled on his divorce and child custody case.
The judge had banned Argote, 49, from seeing his family and ordered him to pay $1,120 per month in child support after hearing about a 'shocking' litany of abuses meted out by the father-of-five.
