Misogynistic pro-Trump lawyer murdered Judge Salas' son

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/25/nyregion/roy-den-hollander-esther-salas-list.html

An openly misogynistic lawyer who is believed to have killed the son of a female federal judge in New Jersey had a list of more than a dozen other possible targets, including three other judges and two doctors, three people with knowledge of the matter said.

The list was found on Monday inside a rented car on a rural road in the Catskills in New York, where the lawyer, Roy Den Hollander, 72, had killed himself.

This is genuinely bizarre, on every conceivable level.

According to his website, [Roy Den Hollander's] foray in the men’s rights movement was sparked by his marriage to a Russian woman he met while working for Kroll Associates in the late 1990s.

He alleges she was really a prostitute who swindled him.”

This is heartwrenching.
"Daniel Anderl, 20, the judge’s only child, who was home from college, was shot through the heart and did not survive the attack, according to the town mayor."

MT @robertjdenault: Man suspected of the attack on Judge Esther Salas’ family is NY attorney Roy Den Hollander, an ardent Trump supporter who filed a civil RICO complaint against the media in 2016 alleging a conspiracy against Trump’s candidacy assets.documentcloud.org/documents/3034…

"In the 1,700-page screed, self-published this year, Den Hollander also wrote about his hatred of his mother and other women and raged about female judges, including fantasizing about the rape of another judge who presided over his divorce case."

"Den Hollander claimed his ex-wife was a member of Russian organized crime circles. A set of files had contact info for Russian lawyers in case of his death.

He spent considerable time in Russia in the 1990s & gave a speech to the Kremlin in 1993, which he posted on his website"
