Suicide in Epstein legal saga
THE man suspected of killing the son and wounding the husband of a high-profile federal judge in New Jersey has been identified as men’s rights activist and lawyer Roy Den Hollander.
According to his website, Den Hollander specialised in “anti-feminist cases” to “help battle the infringement of Men’s Rights by Feminists”.
Den Hollander ( pictured) dressed in a Fed Ex uniform and opened fire on Judge Esther Salas’s North B r u n s w i c k home on Monday (AEST), killing the judge’s son and injuring her defence lawyer husband.
Den Hollander was later found dead in Rockland, New York. Investigators believe he shot himself hours after the attack on Judge Salas’s home.
Days prior to the shooting, Judge Salas was assigned a case involving the late billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
According to the New York Post, Judge Salas was assigned to handle a class-action lawsuit from Deutsche Bank investors who claim the company failed to monitor “high-risk” customers, including Epstein.
The investors also claim the bank made false and misleading statements about its antimoney-laundering policies.
Trump ‘on war footing’
US President Donald Trump has sparked fury among Democrats by threatening to send paramilitary forces into Democrat-run cities to quell anti-racism protests in a move slammed as an election-year political stunt.
According to reports, the government was preparing to send 150 paramilitary personnel to Chicago after police clashed with demonstrators seeking to tear down a statue of Christopher Columbus.
Last week, officers were sent to Portland, Oregon, to stop “anarchists”.
A video showed them taking protesters away in unmarked vehicles.
