Nicholas Roske of California, who was found outside Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s home with weapons in 2022, intends to plead guilty to a federal charge of attempting to assassinate a justice of the United States, court filings obtained by CBS News revealed.
According to a submission Wednesday afternoon from Roske’s defense attorney, “Mr. Roske wishes to plead guilty to the one-count Indictment pending against him.”
A plea hearing could be scheduled for as early as Monday in federal court in Greenbelt, Maryland.
Roske was found in June 2022 outside Kavanaugh’s Montgomery County, Maryland, home armed with a gun, knife and burglary tools, according to court documents.
