Retired New York judge kills himself as FBI arrives on doorstep of his expensive home

A former prosecutor and retired judge killed himself on Tuesday as the FBI arrived at his home in New York to arrest him.

Stewart Rosenwasser, 72, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound during a federal raid on his $430,000 home in Campbell Hall.

The shamed judge has been embroiled in a federal bribery scandal involving a previous case that he oversaw as a public prosecutor.

After authorities arrived at his address to arrest him on Tuesday morning, Rosenwasser allegedly opened fire on federal agents before taking his own life.

Federal prosecutors allege that Rosenwasser had been taking bribes worth $63,000 while working inside the Orange County District Attorney’s Office.

  1. There must be more to it than this…
    $430K house in NY isn’t much. $63K bribe is petty larceny in NY. Going to say either there was a lot more in his closet that was going to become public, or he had dealings with the wrong people.
