Authorities have confirmed that the shooting of a federal judge’s son and husband was committed by lawyer and men’s rights activist Roy Den Hollander before he took his own life in New York’s Catskills.
Hollander shot himself hours after he dressed in a FedEx uniform on Sunday and went to the Brunswick, New Jersey home of Judge Esther Salas, prominent attorney husband 63-year-old Mark Anderl, and their 20-year-old son Daniel Anderl. Once the door of the home was opened, Hollander opened fire, fatally shooting Daniel and critically wounding his father. Salas, who was in the home’s basement at the time, was not injured. While the motive remains unclear, authorities do believe that Judge Salas was the intended target.
According to sources, the man’s body was discovered near a gun that was possibly used in the attack, and a package addressed to Salas.
Hollander had tried a number of outrageous pro-men cases over the years, and his website detailed “anti-feminist cases” and calls for action to “help battle the infringement of Men’s Rights by the Feminist.” According to The Daily Beast, he had a case pending before Salas, which challenged the military’s men-only draft.
In 2007, he filed a class-action suit in Manhattan federal court against several city nightclubs, alleging that allowing women inside of their clubs at discounted prices on designated ladies night was discriminatory. He went as far as requesting to have a female judge removed from the case.
He was recently assigned to a class-action suit from Deutsche Bank investors who claim that the company failed to monitor “high-risk” customers such as convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.
