They say that current resident has nothing to do with Alito.
Alito moved out of West Caldwell after he was confirmed to the high court in 2007.
Police warn anyone identified sending threatening mail or packages to the home will be investigated and charged.
Alito wrote the majority opinion in the Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade.
