the perp had been five times accused and indicted, including her case. She brought a handgun into the courtroom, and when the perp was being led away after being once again indicted, she pulled out and aimed straight at him and killed him in cold blood.

I believe the person you are asking about is Ellie Nessler. Here is a recent update:
Ellie Nessler
Ellie Nessler sparked a national debate when she shot her son's molester five times inside a California courtroom. Though public support for Ellie was strong, she was eventually convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to ten years in prison. Ellie Nessler spent four years in prison, and was released two-and-a-half years ago.
She now lives in Northern California with her two children. Ellie regrets the pain she's caused her family, and if she could do everything over, she'd do it differently. Ellie and her children are in the process of filming a documentary about their story.
