Kavanaugh Incident Could Lead to More Security for Judges

Last week, Wisconsin authorities said Douglas Uhde, 56, shot John Roemer, a former county judge, in a targeted attack against a judge who had once sentenced him to prison. Roemer was found zip-tied to a chair. Uhde had shot himself and later died.

Authorities believe Den Hollander also was tracking Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Salas said in a televised interview last year, because they found a manila folder with information about Sotomayor when they searched a locker belonging to Den Hollander. Sotomayor likes to walk among guests at her public appearances, often joking about the armed officers who are there to protect her. “The guys up here. The big guys with stuff around their waist and things. They’re here to protect you from me,” she said to laughter at an event earlier this year. “They get nervous if you get up unexpectedly. ... Please don’t make them nervous.”

A separate bill, named in memory of Salas' son, would provide more privacy and protections for all federal judges, including scrubbing personal information from the internet, to deal with mounting cyberthreats. The U.S. Marshals Service, which protects about 2,700 federal judges and thousands more prosecutors and court officials, said there were 4,511 threats and inappropriate communications in 2021, up from 926 such incidents in 2015.

The internet has made it much easier to find personal information pertaining to judges, and everyone else.

Biden's America

Kavanaugh “incident” it’s truly amazing how much the media downplays and deflects gravely serious issues when it looks bad for Democrats. A man admitted he was in the area because he wanted to kill the judge.

Could it lead to Garland doing his f’king job and arresting people for intimidating Federal judges outside their homes?🤔
