"Judge Tanya Chutkan Targeted in Swatting Incident Amid Trump Election Case"
Tanya Chutkan, the judge overseeing Trump's federal election interference case, was the apparent victim of a "swatting" attempt when police and fire trucks responded to false reports of a shooting at her home. This incident comes amid an uptick in threats against judges, including those involved in cases related to Trump. Chutkan has faced threats in the past, including a recent arrest of a woman who allegedly left a threatening voicemail. Trump has also targeted Chutkan on social media, leading to a gag order imposed against him. The incident highlights the ongoing security concerns for judges, prompting recent legislation to enhance their protection.
