Judge whose son was killed speaks out about new bill to protect judges
https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/News/judge-son-killed-speaks-bill-protect-judges/story?id=84640559
Nearly two years after her son was murdered at home, a New Jersey judge is fighting to get a federal bill passed that would limit access of public officials private information. U.S. District Judge Esther Salas says the Daniel Anderl Judicial Security and Privacy Act would be vital in protecting federal judges and justices.
I think we have to start asking ourselves why are our leaders not passing this law. Why are they not moving it? To my knowledge, there is nothing controversial about protecting judges home addresses and our social security numbers, Salas told GMA Wednesday. The Daniel Anderl Judicial Security and Privacy Act is ready to go. It's been ready to go for months. It's narrowly tailored to address this immediate interest, this governmental interest that is vital to democracy.

Report: Federal judge says assailant who attacked her family had dossier on Justice Sonia Sotomayor

U.S. District Court Judge Esther Salas told 60 Minutes in an interview that will air Sunday that authorities found a dossier on Sotomayor in a locker used by the assailant, Roy Den Hollander.
"They found another gun, a Glock, more ammunition," Salas told the CBS News program. "But the most troubling thing they found was a manila folder with a workup on Justice Sonia Sotomayor." [snip]
Since the attack, Salas has advocated for legislation to scrub personal information about judges from the internet.
