Why are judges in US getting pizzas that they didn't even order?

Several judges in the US have complained of getting pizzas delivered to their houses and even to their relatives, though they did not place any order for these pizzas. Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI director Kash Patel have been asked to investigate the matter as the judges think these anonymous pizzas delivered are part of a threat that the President Donald Trump administration is giving them.

Many of these pizzas were sent to judges who are presiding over cases against the administration.

Anonymous pizza delivery only to judges: What is this strange thing happening?

According to reports, the deliveries began around late February. In March, the office of the US Marshald for the Southern District of New York sent a memo to some judges in the area mentioning this anonymous deliveries and said the incidents appeared to be connected to high-profile court cases, the Washington Post reported.

The senders have targeted judges at multiple levels, including Supreme Court justices, and the children of some judges.

US Circuit Judge J. Michelle Childs told the Washington Post that she received seven anonymous pizza deliveries at her home in the past few months — one shortly after she gave a verdict against the Trump administration.

“It’s really an unnecessary and an unfortunate threat to our security when we’re trying to be judicial officers in a very neutral position with respect to our cases,” she said. “You need a strong judiciary for the system to work. This is infringing on democracy generally.”

'We are now not opening the door'

Childs said that now she does not open the door when a delivery person arrives -- after several unsolicited pizza deliveries. “We’ve been asking questions, not opening the door, just looking through the Ring,” she said, adding that the deliveries have come through multiple pizza vendors and one third-party delivery app. “Each time, we learn a little bit more.”
