Brazilian judge known for tough sentences slain

Rio de Janeiro police are combing a suburb for clues in the murder of a high-profile criminal judge, ambushed and fatally shot at her doorstep by hooded gunmen, TV Record reported Sunday.Patrícia Lourival Acioli, a 47-year-old mother of three, was known for her hard-line stance against Rio de Janeiro's criminal gangs and brutal militias, mostly former policemen-turned-drug runners who formed extermination gangs much like the ones seen in Mexico.Residents of Niteroi, a suburb on a bay across from Rio de Janeiro, hung black protest banners on the beach near Acioli's home to protest her death.
