US EditionInvestigators don’t know who leaked a Wisconsin Supreme Court draft abortion order
- Over a two-week span in June 2024, investigators conducted interviews with 62 individuals connected to the court, comprising all seven Wisconsin Supreme Court justices, as well as staff members, interns, and others who had access to the court.

- The draft order, leaked in June 2024, showed the court would hear a Planned Parenthood case seeking abortion rights under the state constitution, and was forwarded to Justice Ann Walsh Bradley’s personal email as standard practice.
- The independent investigation funded at $165,740 by the court concluded the leak was likely deliberate but identified no suspects despite thoroughly pursuing all leads and analyzing emails, logs, and printer data.
- The seven justices unanimously condemned the leak as an unprecedented breach of trust, recommended security improvements, and suspended the investigation pending new information.
