New Supreme Court Report Fails to Identify Leaker of Roe v. Wade Draft Opinion
Epoch TimesJan 19, 2023
On Thursday, the US Supreme Court issued a report on its investigation into the leaked draft opinion of the court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade last year, stating that they currently have not identified the individual responsible.
The eight-month investigation, conducted by Court Marshal Gail Curley, involved interviewing 97 court employees and hiring forensic experts to track who had access to the draft.
While some claim this leak was intended to create a public backlash, and others maintain that the intention was to ensure justices reconsidered reversing Roe v. Wade, it is clear the purpose of the leak was an attack on conservative judges. This is a stain on the entire system's integrity.
Public opinion over the Supreme Court has been damaged in recent years by the politicized appointments of conservative judges making morally-questionable rulings. With too many personnel having access to the document this mystery is unlikely to ever be solved. How do we know the leak didn't come from those with right-leaning ideology?
