Judge warned of 'very concerning' Justin Fairfax behavior weeks before Dem gunned down wife

A Virginia judge expressed concern over the mental state of former Lt.

Justin Fairfax while ruling on a child custody case involving two teenage children, commenting on his behavior and isolation.

Fairfax County Circuit Court Judge Timothy J.

McEvoy detailed these concerns in a March 30 court order involving Fairfax, his estranged wife, and their two children, writing that Fairfax’s "isolation, drinking and lack of participation in family life are manifestations of what seems to be a sense of fatalism and hopelessness," WTOP reported.
Fairfax killed his wife, Dr.

Cerina Fairfax, and then himself in a shocking murder-suicide early Thursday morning.

The two were living under the same roof during ongoing divorce proceedings.

The split followed sexual assault allegations made against Fairfax in 2019.

"At that time, [Fairfax] was the Lieutenant Governor of Virginia and was an ascendant political figure who was eyeing a run for Governor.

The assault allegations deeply affected [him] and appear to have put an end to those plans," court documents state.

Fairfax served as lieutenant governor from 2018 to 2022.

In 2019, two women accused him of sexually assaulting them while they were students at Duke University.

McEvoy's order detailed a 2022 incident in which Fairfax purchased a handgun, which he possessed during a "kind of adverse psychological event." The gun was allegedly purchased with money intended for his children’s horseback riding lessons.

McEvoy noted there was no evidence that Fairfax had sought professional help, but did not order psychological therapy.

Authorities believe the acrimonious divorce likely played a role in Fairfax's decision to kill his wife before taking his own life.
