The Supreme Court Hot Dog Stand, Con't

 
The Supreme Court on Thursday announced that it has been unable to identify the person who leaked an unpublished draft of an opinion indicating the court was poised to roll back abortion rights.

In an unsigned statement, the court said that all leads had been followed up and forensic analysis performed, but "the team has to date been unable to identify a person responsible by a preponderance of the evidence."
But the attached report suggested the court was not watertight, with some employees admitting they had talked to spouses about the draft opinion and how the justices had voted.

Supreme Court Marshal Gail Curley, who is in charge of the investigation, said that 97 court employees were interviewed and all denied being the leaker. She said it was unlikely the court's information technology systems were compromised.

The report indicated that the justices were not scrutinized as part of the investigation.

"No one confessed to publicly disclosing the document and none of the available forensic and other evidence provided a basis for identifying any individual as the source of the document," Curley wrote.
 
I guess we'll never know who took the decision from the hot dog stand.
 

 
Of course they're not going to ask Justice Alito or Clarence Thomas's wife, Ginny about this. That might produce an actual fuckin' suspect.
