For anyone who still believes against all evidence that Roberts and Alito are closet moderates, they were the only justices in this case who believed that the "dignity" of the state of Virginia should trump the real dignity of the citizens who are likely dead today and those who might be threatened in the future because of adequate administration of state facilities.

In my view, given the highly dubious nature of the "sovereign immunity" cases to begin with, anything that limits their application is a good thing.
