"I'm gonna call my husband": Federal judge's wife approaches man playing bagpipes before attacking his wife, authorities say

The wife of a federal bankruptcy judge in Texas was arrested after becoming enraged by a man playing bagpipes and assaulting the musician’s wife, according to police.

Eunice Isgur, 76, is charged with assault with bodily injury, according to the Harris County Constable Precinct 5. On May 26, deputies responded to a report of an assault at Houston’s Terry Hershey Park.

Isgur allegedly became enraged when he discovered a man playing bagpipes in a secluded area of the park. She confronted the man while recording on her phone and began yelling at him, according to authorities.

The man’s wife witnessed the argument and began filming herself. That’s when Isgur allegedly started yelling at the wife and assaulting her.

Scott Gibb, the bagpiper, told local ABC affiliate KTRK about the encounter.

“She said I had no right to play here in this public park,” Gibb told me.

According to Gibb, Isgur then invoked her husband, Marvin Isgur, U.S. District Bankruptcy Judge for the Southern District of Texas.

“She said, ‘I’ll call my husband.'” “He’s a federal judge, and he’ll make you stop,” the bagpiper told the TV station.

Gibb stated that the suspect brought her judge husband to the scene, but he is not accused of any wrongdoing.

According to Gibb, the assault occurred when Eunice Isgur hit the victim’s arm while swiping her phone. However, the suspect suffered a black eye when she fell while attempting to grab Gibb’s wife’s backpack.

The musician, who is originally from Scotland, told the TV station that Eunice Isgur had previously confronted him, but this was the first time it became violent.

“You can’t have people so disrespectful and attacking for no reason at all,” Gibb told the crowd.

Records show that Isgur hired Ryan Patrick, the son of Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick, as an attorney. He did not respond to a request for comment.
