Far-left activists sang, cursed, and shouted as they protested numerous political causes outside the home of Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett, despite a federal law that forbids picketing or parading "in or near a building occupied or used by such judge, juror, witness, or court officer" with the intent of intimidating or influencing that person.
Far-left protestors are back at Amy Coney Barrett's home demonstrating in violation of 18 U.S.C. code 1507
- They have been protesting outside the homes of the justices for almost nine months, since the May leak of the draft opinion indicating Roe v. Wade would be overturned
- Frequent protesters include Sadie Kuhns, Melissa Barlow, Nikki Enfield, and Nadine Seiler.
Virginia and Maryland
- Republican Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin and former Republican Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan begged the Department of Justice in May to enforce the federal law protecting Supreme Court justices
- The DOJ did not fully respond to the request until June 8
- Laws in both Maryland and Virginia also prohibit picketing to disrupt or threaten to disrupt that individual's "tranquility in his home."
- Since then, law enforcement have continued to stand outside the justices' homes as the protests take place
