COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.—Justice Neil Gorsuch said Thursday that the Supreme Court’s investigation of the May leak of the draft opinion overruling Roe v. Wade was continuing, and that a report on the incident is coming.

“The chief justice appointed an internal committee to oversee the investigation,” Justice Gorsuch told the 10th Circuit Bench and Bar Conference here at the Broadmoor resort. “That committee has been busy and we’re looking forward to their report, I hope soon.”

Justice Gorsuch didn’t say whether the report would be made public, and the conference prohibited reporters from interviewing him or other judges.

Like other justices, Justice Gorsuch condemned the leak of the draft opinion, and suggested it had been intended to affect the outcome of the abortion case.

1. Exactly

My thinking, too. I’m surprised they’re still investigating. I thought they’d let this fall off the radar quietly, lest it leads to one of their own knuckle-scrapers.

2. I still say it was Gin-gin.

He winked and nodded to one of his fanatical aides and it was leaked to stop any remote chance that Roberts could pull one vote and get a watered down opinion on a 5-4 vote.
