YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The abusive dad accused of gunning down Maryland Judge Andrew Wilkinson hours after a divorce hearing was found dead Thursday, ending a massive weeklong manhunt.

Pedro Argote’s body was found by officers swarming the area around where his SUV was located over the weekend in Williamsport, just a few miles from where the 52-year-old judge was shot dead outside his Hagerstown home on Thursday last week.

“The deceased was located in a heavily wooded area between Clear Spring Road and Bottom Road approximately one mile northwest of where the suspect vehicle was found,” Washington County police said.

Argote, 49, had been on the run since the shocking shooting, which police said was “targeted” after Wilkinson granted his ex-wife custody of his children in a divorce case.

The judge had signed an order saying there was to be no visitation or contact between Argote, 49, and his four children, or their mother, Eugenia Argote, according to the partial judgment in the divorce case cited by the Herald-Mail.
