A gunman disguised as a Fedex delivery driver broke into the New Jersey home of U.S. District Court Judge Esther Salas on Sunday evening, fatally shooting her 20-year-old son and wounding her husband, according to a report from the New Jersey Globe.
Salas was unharmed by the gunman. Her husband, 63-year-old Mark Anderl, underwent surgery at a New Brunswick hospital, the paper said, and is in critical but stable condition. The couple’s son, Daniel Anderl, died in the attack at the family’s North Brunswick home.
WNBC in New York reports that Mark went to answer the door around 5 p.m. on Sunday and was shot multiple times. When Daniel came running to the door to help his father, he was shot, too, before the gunman fled. Police say that Judge Salas was in the basement at the time of the shooting.
Salas has been in her position for nine years since her nomination by former U.S. President Barack Obama, and she is the first Hispanic woman to serve on a federal bench in New Jersey. Before that, Salas spent five years as a magistrate judge and nine as a public defender. Mark is a criminal defense attorney and former Assistant Essex County Prosecutor.
The suspect in the shooting remains at large. It is not currently clear what motive they had for attacking Salas’ home.

Curious why she wouldn't have US Marshall security detail assigned to her for such a high profile case.

That's terrible stuff, despite what some absolutely disgusting people are saying in the comments. I'm going to hope that they are paid to discredit pedogate because the idea they are glad someone was murdered is far worse.

I think option A is probably correct.

This strikes me as odd. The word Basement comes up a lot - potential msm code ?.

suspish, the hitman wasn't a professional, if she was the target she would be pushing daisys.
Piscina ago
She was not the target.
tokui ago
Gunman stopped and left - he knew she was home (vehicles, surveillance).
She was not the target. She may have hired the hit.
gorofear ago
Why would she hire the hit on her own family
tokui ago
I need to ask her. Target was not her, obviously.

So she doesnt have to deal with the Epstein case lol
I don't think thats the case
TripleZ ago
Or it might be a message to her to go easy in the upcoming trial.
Lingon ago
If that was her only kid she has nothing left to lose and will not care about going easy on anything.
beefartist ago
If she is a judge and didn't have her kid until her husband was 40+ he isn't as important to her as you think
Lingon ago
In all likelihood she's like the vast majority of mothers in the world, who lives for her children. You don't know how much you love your child until you have them regardless. She could've had 20 miscarriages for 20 years trying to have children, I assume you haven't looked that deep in to it.
beefartist ago
I know all about miscarriages. Don't buy the feminist hype; you can't be a high level judge or lawyer and a top notch mom.

True. The false idea of feminazism is that women can have it all. Something always suffers for Mothers whom have a career.
beefartist ago
It isn't that I want to take anything away from women...quite the opposite. I want to give them what their husbands didn't have the courage to. My wife has friends who rushed "back to work" after birth and put their children in the care of strangers...infants may not quite understand but they know who their mother is and who is not...there are bonds not created that can never be made later on.
