An inferno ripped through the waterfront home of a South Carolina judge and her Democratic ex-senator husband on Saturday, leaving three people hospitalized, according to authorities and reports.

Circuit Court Judge Diana Goodstein’s Edisto Beach home went up in flames around midday, sending plumes of black smoke into the air and forcing her husband, former Dem state Sen. Arnold Goodstein, to jump from the first floor to escape the blaze, The Post and Courier reported.

Arnold Goodstein, along with two additional occupants, were rescued by several neighbors and paramedics from a marshy, remote area behind the three-story home, resident Tom Peterson told the outlet.

The individuals were reached by emergency workers in kayaks, according to the St. Paul’s Fire District.

One person was air-evacuated to the Medical University of South Carolina, and the other two occupants, who have not yet been identified, were brought to the Medical University of South Carolina on ground, according to Cpt. KC Campbell with the Colleton County Fire Rescue.

Sources close to Goodstein’s family confirmed Arnold was airlifted after breaking multiple bones in his hips, legs and feet after escaping from the four-bedroom, four-bathroom home, FitsNews reported.

Diana Goodstein, 69, had been walking on a beach with her dogs when the flames swallowed the home in the lush Jeremy Cay private gated community, Peterson told The Post and Courier.

The condition of all three escapees wasn’t immediately known.

South Carolina native Judge Diane Goodstein was elected to her first judgeship in May 1998 and has served continuously ever since, according to her biography.

Her husband, Arnold Goodstein, served in the House and the South Carolina Senate for different terms in the 1970s, according to public records. He was a Democrat representing Charleston County, The Nerve reported.

He also led Summerville Homes, a large home-building business that ceased operations in 2008 and filed for $61 million bankruptcy, the outlet said.

The couple shares two children, Arnold Samuel Goodstein II and Eve Schafer Goodstein, according to Diana’s biography page.
