U.S. District Judge Esther Salas is calling for greater privacy safeguards for federal judges in her first public remarks following a deadly shooting attack that took her son’s life and injured her husband.
In an emotional video released on Aug. 3, Salas spoke about the pain she and her family have been experiencing since the horrific July 19 shooting, in which a gunman, who posed as a FedEx delivery man, turned up at the front door of the federal judge’s New Jersey home and shot dead her 20-year-old son, Daniel, and wounded her husband, defense lawyer Mark Anderl.
