Federal Judge Delivers Powerful Statement Weeks After Misogynist Lawyer Killed Her Son (VIDEO)

U.S. District Judge Esther Salas has delivered her first public statement since a misogynist attorney killed her 20-year-old son Daniel Anderl and seriously wounded her 63-year-old husband Mark Anderl at their New Jersey home on July 19.

“Two weeks ago, my life as I knew it changed in an instant, and my family will never be the same,” Salas said. “A madman, who I believe was targeting me because of my position as a federal judge, came to my house.”

Investigators say that madman was lawyer Roy Den Hollander. He had previously had a case before Salas, a federal judge in the District of New Jersey. Authorities are reportedly looking into whether shooter, who had been diagnosed with terminal cancer, was attempting to carry out a hit-list of his perceived enemies. Den Hollander fled the scene of the New Jersey shooting, and was later found dead by suicide in Rockland, New York.

Salas said that she and her husband had welcomed Daniel home to celebrate his 20th birthday. He had asked if they could host a party for a few of his Catholic University of America friends. They agreed when they thought they could adhere to COVID-19 safety guidelines.
