"SNIP....

ABC News: “The suspect was found dead of an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound near Campsite Road and Berry Brook Road in Sullivan County, the sources said. A municipal employee discovered the body in a car.”

“The deceased suspect was an attorney who, sources said, had a case before Judge Salas in 2015. A FedEx package addressed to Judge Salas was discovered in the car.”

......SNIP"

Is he a murderous patsy? Why would he keep a package with the judge's address and name on it with him in the car? He intended to get sway. So creepy.

1. Doesn't sound like a patsy to me. Sounds like disturbed man that took oung man's life for no reason.

Further, his plan on its face appeared not to disguise his identity but to gain access to the Judge. Right now it appears most likely that the killer knocks on the door, says he has a delivery for Judge Salas, but for whatever reason her son / husband get wary, tell him she’s not home, so he shoots them then flees. Then he kills himself a short time later.

The simplest explanation is most often the correct one. Let’s not swim in conspiratorial waters when there are plenty of far more realistic scenarios.

He was an american 'player' in Russia. They would have a file on him. I don't know. I am speculating. I am sure law enforcement will be looking into all peculiaralities.
