Mourners pay respects to Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Mourners flock to pay respects to Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whose death opened a crucial US Supreme Court seat that Donald Trump has vowed to fill before the election, as she lay in repose at the top court.
Memorial services celebrating Ginsburg’s life and career began with more than 100 of her former law clerks standing on the steps of the court as her casket was carried inside in the crisp September morning air.
The progressive justice, who died last week, will lie in repose at the court on Wednesday and Thursday, when the White House says Trump will visit to pay his respects.
On Friday she will become the first woman to lie in state at the US Capitol.
