SCOTUS Roe v Wade mole is CORNERED: Investigation into 70 individuals over the bombshell leak is almost complete
Justice Neil Gorsuch said he and his fellow justices could gain more insight on the leak that sent shockwaves across the nation ahead of the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
'The chief justice appointed an internal committee to oversee the investigation,' Justice Gorsuch told the 10th Circuit Bench and Bar Conference in Colorado Springs, according to the Wall Street Journal. 'That committee has been busy and we're looking forward to their report, I hope soon.'
It was Gorsuch's first public comment on the matter since the late June ruling.
The Trump-nominated justice did not say whether the report would be made public.
Justices have roundly condemned the leak, Gorsuch included, and suggested it was intended to sway their decision in the abortion case.
'Improper efforts to influence judicial decision making, from whatever side, are a threat' to the judicial process, he said.
'They inhibit our capacity to communicate with one another' in a way that 'improves our final products,' Gorsuch added. 'I very much hope we get to the bottom of this sooner or later.'
A majority draft opinion indicating the Supreme Court would overturn Roe in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization was leaked in May, before the final decision was released on June 24.
Such a leak is unprecedented and Chief Justice John Roberts ordered the court's marshal to investigate. There have been few updates on the probe.
Sources previously told Fox News that the investigation into the some-70 individuals who may have had access to the documents has narrowed. Several clerks sought legal counsel when in June court investigators insisted justices' law clerks sit for interviews and surrender their cell phones.

My comment: I did not think that this case was progressing. I hope they find the culprit soon.
