More cheery news for Law & Crime in the USA
Roy Den Hollander, the misogynist lawyer who killed two men in a hunt for his perceived enemies, had a “manila folder” on Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, one of the killer’s targets said in an interview with 60 Minutes.
U.S. District Judge Esther Salas said that the Federal Bureau of Investigation discovered that Den Hollander had a locker in New Jersey.
“They found another gun–a Glock–more ammunition, but the most troubling thing they found was a manila folder with a workup on Justice Sonia Sotomayor,” said Salas, whose son Daniel Anderl, 20, was murdered by Den Hollander. Den Hollander also critically injured Salas’ husband Mark Anderl.
Over the years, Den Hollander kept a somewhat notable profile as a self-styled men’s rights attorney, who sued nightclubs in New York City over ladies’ nights and represented a woman in a lawsuit opposing the male-only draft. He also left behind an array of racist and sexist writings. A terminal cancer diagnosis preceded the rampage, which reportedly had a list of targets. Ironically enough, Den Hollander only ended up shooting men.
