Prosecutor: Pennsylvania attorney general had sought revenge
SF Chronicle ^ | 8/9/2016 | Maryclaire Dale

A desire for revenge drove Pennsylvania's attorney general to leak secret criminal files to the press to embarrass a rival and then lie about it to a grand jury, prosecutors said as Kathleen Kane's perjury and obstruction trial opened Tuesday.

Kane, 50, was once a rising star in the state's Democratic party....

SNIP

Kane is charged with perjury, a felony, and misdemeanor counts of conspiracy, obstruction and false swearing. She lost her law license over the charges and did not seek re-election this year. The trial is expected to last a week.

And she was the chief law enforcement officer of PA.

Another case of democrats being democrats.

The only surprising thing about this case is that it is actually being prosecuted in the Obama era of .gov lawlessness.

Exactly! Any good whitewash requires an investigation and maybe some phony outrage, and if it is really serious, some legal process to make the masses think the system is honest.

What a joke. She was never a rising star. The leftist were all excited just because she was the first female State Attorney General. Big woopsey doo.

She in fact was/is a total hack.

“She was never a rising star. “

I disagree. Kane is exactly the type the Dems love to groom for big things: she's a female Catholic who'd gone to Catholic schools but is hard-oore pro-abortion and pro-gay marriage. I am delighted she's going down. Even if she beats this rap, she won't be shoved down our throats the way Tim Kaine, the supposed “devout Catholic” is.

She served her purpose. When Drmocrats were caught on tape negotiating and taking bribes for votes she made sure none of them were prosecuted. She’s should be in jail for that alone, let alone any of this crap she’s being prosecuted for... Color me skeptical that she’ll face any serious justice.
