The home of South Carolina Circuit Court judge Diane Goodstein was set on fire after she had reportedly received death threats.

State law enforcement is investigating the house fire on Edisto Beach which began at around 11:30 a.m. E.T. on Saturday, sources told local news outlet FITSNews.

Goodstein was reportedly not at home at the time of the fire, but at least three members of her family, including her husband, former Democratic state senator Arnold Goodstein, and their son, have been hospitalized with serious injuries. According to the St. Paul’s Fire District, which responded to the scene, the occupants had to be rescued via kayak. Law enforcement have not disclosed whether the fire is being investigated as an arson attack.

    The truth is the voters in states like Oregon don’t actually have command of their own police forces. The police don’t answer to elected politicians. They’re an independent occupying force that answers only to themselves. And they support the regime.

      The governors can’t arrest sherrifs? Mayors cant fire chiefs of police? Officers don’t follow orders?
