So I thought I would just share a little bit about how the threats have affected me and my family personally.
voice-verified
They have required me to, my children, to think about and see things that children should not have to see or think about.
voice-verified
One example is when threats to my life were particularly intense a few years ago around the time of the Dobbs leak, my security detail sent me home with a bulletproof vest, and I carried it into my house, put it into my bedroom, dropped it down on a table,
voice-verified
turned around and my 12-year-old son was standing in the doorway of my bedroom and he wanted to know what it was and why I had it and I didn't know how to respond because maybe I lack imagination but I didn't expect that performing this service was going to put me in the position of explaining to my children what a bulletproof vest was and why I had to wear one.
voice-verified
It's also been reported in the news that roughly six weeks ago, I was the victim of a swatting incident.
voice-verified
At that point, my teenage son, one of my teenage sons, opened the door to go out with friends and saw in our street
voice-verified
It was full of police cars who had responded to a false report of gunshots and raised voices in my home.
voice-verified
I was very, very grateful that I had Supreme Court police outside my home because they were able to stop and meet with and explain to the county police that it had been a false alarm.
voice-verified
And so the police did not actually attempt to enter our home.
voice-verified
Many of us, me included, have received threatening anonymous deliveries designed to intimidate and harass us.
voice-verified
They are often sent in the name of Judge Salas's son, who I think, as you mentioned in the beginning, Mr. Chairman, is deceased because he was killed by a disgruntled lawyer who showed up at Judge Salas's home
voice-verified
intending to kill her, but her son, 20 years old at the time, opened the door and took the bullet instead.
voice-verified
Her husband, standing behind, was seriously injured.
voice-verified
So I think the message on these deliveries being sent in his name is clear.
voice-verified
As Justice Kagan said, federal judges across the country throughout the judiciary, including the Supreme Court, continue to do their jobs without fear or favor, but the threat level is really high.
