On Saturday, Judge Jeanine Pirro took a few minutes at the end of her program to pay tribute to her mother, Esther Ferris, who recently passed away.

It was the first time she appeared in front of the camera since publicly announcing her loss.

Judge Jeanine began by saying, “She was my hero, my backbone, my inspiration, my rock, my mentor and my muse.”

She went on to say that it was her mom who taught her how to fight for the victim and the weak, “long before it was vogue to do so.”
