Maryland Gov. Says Police Prepared to Help Secure Supreme Court Justices’ Homes

Gov. Larry Hogan’s office announced that Maryland police officers are prepared to help provide additional security for Supreme Court Justices and their homes. 

“The governor directed state law enforcement leaders to work with local and federal partners and be prepared to assist in the event there is a need for increased security and protective measures,” Michael Ricci, a spokesman for the governor, told the Epoch Times. 

Both the Maryland State Police and the Maryland Center for Analysis & Coordination are working with  federal and local partners, including the Supreme Court Police and the Montgomery County Police Department, he added. 

Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh, Samuel Alito and John Roberts live in Maryland, and pro-abortion groups have been protesting outside their homes since the Roe v. Wade draft opinion leaked last week. 

Amy Coney Barrett, Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch all live in Virginia, where state police are monitoring the protests to ensure the justices’ safety. 

“The governor is aware and Virginia State Police will monitor the situation,” Macaulay Porter, a spokeswoman for Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin, told the Epoch Times, adding that the police “will assist federal and local law enforcement as needed to ensure the safety of our citizens, including Supreme Court justices, who call Virginia home.”
