A man wants to plead guilty as soon as next week on a charge of plotting to kill Supreme Court Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh following the leak of a draft Supreme Court decision, according to a court filing from his attorneys Wednesday.
Nicholas Roske “wishes to enter a plea of guilty” to one count of attempting to assassinate a Justice of the United States, although there is no plea agreement, the lawyers wrote to the judge in the case.
Roske was arrested after authorities said they found him near Kavanaugh’s Maryland residence in June 2022.
