Security tight at funeral for slain Arizona judge

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — One day after mourning the death of a child, an Arizona city will remember the life of a judge.

A funeral for U.S. District Judge John Roll is expected to draw many other federal judges, and security is tight. Three hours before services today, U.S. marshals and local law officers were at the church, where Thursday evening 2,000 people gathered for the funeral of 9-year-old Christina Taylor Green. She was the youngest of six people killed Saturday when a gunman opened fire at a supermarket meet-and-greet for Democratic Rep. Gabrielle Giffords.

Across the street from the church, graffiti on a retaining wall reads “Stop the Hate.”

A huge sign draped over a house reads “Your community is standing with you.” Next door, an American flag hangs on a garage door.
