Assassination Attempt on Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh

Nicholas Roske attempted to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in 2022, inspired by leaks of a draft opinion on overturning Roe v. Wade. Roske traveled from California to Maryland to murder Kavanaugh but was arrested. His confession is being contested by his lawyers. The leaked opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization signaled the intent to overturn Roe v. Wade, causing uproar and left-wing protests.
