BREAKING: The Supreme Court says it’s unable to identify the person who leaked the draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade.
the unauthorized disclosure, calling it a"betrayal of the confidences of the court." The Supreme Court revealed Thursday that it also consulted Michael Chertoff, former secretary of Homeland Security, to assess the marshal's probe.
In a report from the marshal accompanying the Supreme Court's statement about the investigation, Curley said it is"unlikely" the leak stemmed from a hack of the court's IT systems by a person outside the court. But after examining the Supreme Court's computer devices, networks, printers and available call and text logs, investigators found"no forensic evidence indicating who disclosed the draft opinion.
Curley's investigative team consisted of attorneys and federal investigators with experience in criminal, administrative and cyber investigations, and they conducted 126 formal interviews of 97 employees, who all denied leaking the opinion, according to her report. "Investigators continue to review and process some electronic data that has been collected and a few other inquiries remain pending. To the extent that additional investigation yields new evidence or leads, the investigators will pursue them," Curley said in her report."If a Court employee disclosed the draft opinion, that person brazenly violated a system that was built fundamentally on trust with limited safeguards to regulate and constrain access to very sensitive information.
She lamented that the COVID-19 pandemic, which eased the ability to work from home, and gaps in the Supreme Court's security policies, created an environment that made it easy to remove"sensitive information" from the building and the court's IT networks, raising the risk of"deliberate and accidental disclosures of court-sensitive information."
