A FEDERAL judge whose son was killed and her husband critically injured in a shooting at their home is receiving 24-hour protection from US Marshals, according to reports.
The incident took place on Sunday at the home of Judge Esther Salas, who last week was appointed to hear an ongoing lawsuit with ties to Jeffrey Epstein.
Salas’ son, Daniel Anderl, 20, was killed and her husband Mark Anderl, a 63-year-old criminal defense attorney, was critically wounded after a gunman — dressed as a FedEx delivery driver — ambushed them inside their home in North Brunswick, New Jersey.
Sources told ABC News that Judge Salas, 51, had received threats in the past.
On Monday, the suspect, Roy Den Hollander, was found dead near Liberty, New York, from what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound, law enforcement officials said.
Hollander, a self-described anti-feminist attorney, previously represented a New Jersey woman who was suing the US Selective Service System so she could register for the male-only draft, the New Jersey Globe reported.
Salas had agreed to hear the case, filed in 2015 – but in 2019, the judge dismissed part of the lawsuit, while another part was still pending.
