Wife of ‘Duck Sauce Killer’ found not guilty of gun charges for allegedly stashing husband’s arsenal after delivery worker death

The estranged wife of accused “Duck Sauce Killer” Glenn Hirsch burst into tears inside a Queens courtroom Wednesday as she was found not guilty of controversial gun-possession charges.

Dorothy Hirsch, who faced weapons charges for allegedly stashing her late husband’s arsenal after he was accused of gunning down a Chinese food delivery worker in a dispute over duck sauce, sobbed as she blasted prosecutors following the verdict.

“This ethically challenged DA’s office came after me for 25 months – just because they couldn’t get their monsters – they came after me,” she told reporters.

“Not only did they promote the myths, dangerous, ignorant, irresponsible myths about domestic violence, they lied and just made up stories that I planted evidence,” she said. “That I packaged these guns. That I handed or gave Glenn a gun so he could shoot himself. That I wrote the letter that he left, his dying declaration. And that I intended to shoot up the restaurant! It’s just all lies.

“It was horrible listening to all that,” she added. “I became emotional a few times. I don’t think anybody can blame me for that.”

Queens prosecutors filed the charges after Glenn Hirsch committed suicide while out on bail four months after he allegedly gunned down food delivery worker Zhiwen Yan on April 30, 2022.

Prosecutors said there were eight illegal pistols and more than 400 rounds of ammunition found inside Dorothy Hirsch’s apartment after her husband killed himself.

But the woman’s defense lawyer argued that the guns were found in a closet where Glenn Hirsch kept his things and said the weapons were his and not Dorothy Hirsch’s.

“In all my years of doing this, I’ve never seen an actually innocent person treated this poorly, this improperly by a DA’s office at every turn,” defense lawyer Mark Bederow said Wednesday.

“I would suggest that DA [Melinda] Katz take inventory of her, the way they handle domestic violence in that office because what you saw in the courtroom during the course of this trial was inappropriate, offensive, and just clearly suggested that Dorothy Hirsch has always been a victim.”

A spokesperson for Katz would only say that the office is “disappointed with the outcome but respect the court’s verdict.”

Glenn Hirsch was charged with shooting Yan to death in the midst of an ongoing dispute with Great Wall restaurant, where the delivery man worked – with the beef stemming from Hirsch’s claim that the eatery shorted him on duck sauce on a pickup order.

Restaurant workers maintain the unhinged Hirsch repeatedly threatened the staff and vandalized the owner’s car at one point in an ongoing reign of terror.

Hirsch was busted in the shooting but released on a $500,000 bond and shot himself to death in August 2022, just four months after Yan’s fatal shooting.

Dorothy Hirsch testified at her trial that the accused killer abused her for years before the fatal shooting.
