Federal prosecutors have reportedly issued subpoenas as part of a criminal investigation into the unauthorized release of the draft Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade.

DOJ is investigating the 2022 Supreme Court abortion ruling leak, with prosecutors issuing new subpoenas. Four years after the Supreme Court failed to find who leaked the draft overturning Roe v. Wade, federal prosecutors are issuing grand jury subpoenas.

Federal prosecutors are probing the Supreme Court leak after Chief Justice John Roberts' internal investigation failed to identify the leaker. Some conservatives believe the source of the leak was an abortion-rights supporter who was hoping to derail the ruling, a theory President Donald Trump has voiced.

Newsweek reported the story as "Supreme Court Under Criminal Probe by Trump's DOJ." American Greatness reported the story as "Justice Department Opens Criminal Probe Into Leak of Dobbs Abortion Ruling."
