Re: the murder of the NJ federal judge’s son, which was professional work, I’d look at the cartel affiliated gangbangers she sentenced to 50 years

A self-described “anti-feminist” lawyer found dead in the Catskills of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound is considered the prime suspect in the shooting of a federal judge’s family in New Jersey, the FBI said Monday.

Roy Den Hollander, who received media attention including appearances on Fox News and Comedy Central for lawsuits challenging perceived infringements of “men’s rights,” was found dead Monday in Sullivan County, New York, two officials with knowledge of the investigation told The Associated Press.

The FBI said Den Hollander was the “primary subject in the attack” and confirmed he had been pronounced dead but provided no other details. Found among his personal effects was information about another judge, New York Chief Judge Janet DiFiore, a state court spokesperson said.

A day earlier, a gunman posing as a FedEx delivery person went to the North Brunswick, New Jersey, home of U.S. District Judge Esther Salas, and started shooting, wounding her husband, the defense lawyer Mark Anderl, and killing her son, Daniel Anderl.

#7  rj, I'm not sure if it's because of the lockdown/increase in online ordering or what, but several times in our neighborhood, FedEx delivers in a plain white van. The driver has a FedEx shirt, but that is probably not too hard to get hold of.

#6  When folks are locked in and the suicide rate goes up who knows who might just snap. The real question is how did he get the delivery truck? Does he know a driver? Did he steal it? Did he buy a similar truck and have it painted. Each points to a different level of planning that could be important.

There is also the chance he didn't do it and he's just another suicide by Covid.

#5  You do not open the door to anybody and say, "May we help you?" Basic survival. Got to learn basic survival when you are a potential target.

#3  Then I assume we are expected to believe that the late Mr. Den Hollander was the Salas shooter ?

I guess that just about wraps it up. Oh wait !

I know it sounds crazy, but could possibly do a ballistics test on the weapon used? Say, compare the results to spent ammo found in Seth Rich for instance, or others ?

#2  Unfortunately, this is the USA, and not much makes sense here anymore.

#1  It makes no sense that the gunmen did not kill himself at the house unless he was planning on being paid somewhere else later. This might serve as a warning to other potential assassins.
