The National Judicial College (NJC) at the University of Nevada, Reno reports that a longtime faculty member was found shot and killed on Wednesday morning in his home in Hobart, Indiana.
Tracy E. "Ted" Page was 64 years old. He had been a member of the NJC's faculty since 1996 and he taught more than 75 courses at the college.
Judge Page was at a workshop just two weeks before at the NJC and was scheduled to teach a course next month in Arkansas.
"Judge Page received high evaluation scores from his judicial peers around the country, not only for his legal expertise but for the warmth he brought to his presentations and his approachability and willingness to help students at breaks and during lunches," Provost Joy Lyngar said. "He exemplified civility and integrity; his loss will reverberate in courtrooms around the nation.”
The Northwest Indiana Times reported that a suspect was taken into custody and was a former client of Page.
