Fed Judge's son shot and killed
-
The son of U.S. District Court Judge Esther Salas was fatally shot and her husband critically wounded when a gunman dressed as a FedEx driver entered her home near North Brunswick, N.J., Sunday afternoon, according to local media.
Salas herself was reportedly unharmed in the attack, the New Jersey Globe reports. Daniel Anderl, Salas' 20-year-old son, was killed. Her husband, Mark Anderl, a criminal defense attorney and former assistant Essex County prosecutor, reportedly underwent surgery at Robert Wood Johnson Hospital in New Brunswick, and is listed in critical but stable condition.
The FBI in Newark tweeted that it was "investigating a shooting that occurred at the home of Judge Ester Salas" and that the bureau was "looking for one suspect."

The suspect is dead. He did not kill himself.
Where is this story, Loki? I only find the original story.

The suspect was later found dead of an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound near Liberty, New York, multiple law enforcement sources told ABC News. A municipal employee discovered the body in a car.
The deceased suspect was an attorney who had a case before Judge Salas in 2015, sources said. A FedEx package addressed to Judge Salas was discovered in the car, sources said.

Thanks, Copper. Now we wait to find out what was in the FedEx package. Unless it is a dummy that he used at their home.

Three of them. To the back of the head.

It sounds like he was a nutter. Had posted online about 'Feminazis', and had said she was a 'lazy and incompetent Latina judge appointed by Obama'.

You think that would do it? I guess it depends whether the incel’s pain is physiological from lack of sex or psychological from the lack of being wanted. Or simply invidious, when he sees others that are successful where he repeatedly fails.
If he wasn’t white would the root cause been exogenous?

If you know how important the presumption of agency is, how ridiculous does that make all the permanent victim messaging that destroys that presumption? Is it evil messaging on the part of those smart enough to understand how much damage it does, but who also recognize the social power they can wield with it? Or is it ignorant messaging employed by high status echo chamber dwellers eating their virtuous marshmallow? I think it's short sighted ignorance born mostly of a competitive virtuousness, wanting to look and feel more moral than the next person.
