Alan Dershowitz, a Harvard Law professor emeritus, said that Monday night’s leaked draft of the Supreme Court’s ruling to overturn Roe v. Wade appears to be authentic and suggested that federal investigators will be called to investigate the incident.

“This has the sign of authenticity,” Dershowitz told Newsmax. “It also to me, and this is just a theory, but I think it’s maybe correct: The leak was very deliberately–perhaps by a law clerk who was very strongly opposed to reversing Roe v. Wade–seeking to make it public now so that pressure could be put on the Supreme Court, either by an act of Congress to pack the court, or an act of Congress making a federal legislative right of every woman to have an abortion based on the Commerce Clause.”
