Judge speaks out after beach mansion exploded, burned to ground, Libs already connect Trump and MAGA

Judge Diane Goodstein’s South Carolina home burned to the ground, and now she’s speaking out.

The inferno shocked the Edisto Beach community, but Goodstein was reportedly “cheerful” over the phone when contacted by Daily Mail.

“I’m alright,” she said, referring any further questions to a “court administrator.” The outlet reports that the circuit court judge was walking along the beach when her home went up in flames in what some are saying is a suspected arson attack. Her husband, former Democrat state senator Arnold Goodstein, jumped from a first-floor window to escape the fire and is said to have suffered multiple broken bones. Two others were reportedly also hospitalized after fleeing the home.

“Several reports said the circuit court judge had received death threats over the past few weeks following her decision to prevent the state from handing over sensitive voter registration documents to the federal government,” DM reported. “Trump’s Department of Justice had requested South Carolina officials turn over the personal data of more than 3.3 million voters, including names, addresses, birth dates, driver’s license numbers and the last four digits of their Social Security numbers.”

Rep. Nancy Mace, R-South Carolina, spoke out against the shocking act:

Judge Diane Goodstein’s Edisto Island home burned to the ground while her family was inside.

They survived by jumping from windows, three were injured, including her husband, former Sen. Arnold Goodstein, who remains hospitalized.

The fire also killed the family’s pets.

“Judge Diane Goodstein’s Edisto Island home burned to the ground while her family was inside. They survived by jumping from windows, three were injured, including her husband, former Sen. Arnold Goodstein, who remains hospitalized,” Mace wrote in her X post. “The fire also killed the family’s pets. If this was targeted political violence or arson, those responsible must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. South Carolina is done tolerating crime, chaos, and cowardice. Justice MUST be served, swiftly and completely.”

X users also weighed in:

Hopefully it was just an unfortunate accident.
But yes, the door swings both ways with our party.

Man, that’s awful…I couldn’t imagine loosing my home and all my possessions.

While we likely disagree on MANY issues I’d never want this for anybody

I agree, but I think the percentage of house fires that are political violence is vanishingly small, certainly when compared to bullet holes. Might be best to just see what develops.

I’m glad they’re all okay, but sad that their pets didn’t make it. And no one deserves this no matter what their politics are.

This is HORRIBLE and if it was done purposely it is even worse. But gas leaks also cause explosions and fire. Wait to hear what happened from
the fire dept.
