MADISON, WI (WSAU-WRN) — The President of Wisconsin Family Action says they are cooperating with authorities as the investigation into an arson at their Madison office continues.
“They’re apparently pretty aggressive in their investigation which we certainly hope they are,” said Julaine Appling in an interview on FOX News Wednesday. “This deserves that kind of investigation. But they told us they didn’t have any new leads or any suspects in mind.”
The fire occurred just days after a draft Supreme Court opinion was leaked which suggests that the Justices may be ready to overturn Roe vs Wade. Appling says she can’t imagine what could happen in the event that the leaked opinion does materialize.
“If they’re willing to do this kind of action with a draft opinion, what should we be expecting when we actually get a final decision from the US Supreme Court on this issue,” she said.
Investigators say someone threw two Molotov cocktails into the building, but they didn’t ignite. A fire was then started outside the building. Additionally, someone spray painted the phrase “if abortions aren’t safe, than you aren’t either” outside the building.
A pro-abortion group, Jane’s Revenge, has claimed responsibility for the incident though that claim has not been verified.
