Justice Samuel Alito, who wrote the opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, retires

NPR published a report stating that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was retiring, which caused immediate confusion within the high court's press room. However, the news organization quickly retracted the story, issuing an editor's note explaining that the information was published erroneously. Despite initial reports suggesting Alito, a key figure in overturning Roe v. Wade, was stepping down, Scotusblog and other sources clarified the situation following the removal of the original NPR article.
