Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane, the state’s top prosecutor, was criminally charged Thursday in a scheme to leak grand jury material and later cover it up – a stunning blow to a political career that was once on a steep ascent.

At a news conference in Norristown, Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Vetri Ferman unveiled an indictment including charges of perjury, official oppression, obstruction of justice and contempt of court.

Also charged was Patrick Reese, a member of Kane’s security detail and her driver, who stands accused

of aiding the attorney general in the alleged cover-up by sneaking into grand jury files.

“No one is above the law, not even the chief law enforcement officer of the commonwealth of Pennsylvania,” Ferman said.

She added: “This is a sad day for the citizens of Pennsylvania and a sad day for all of us in law enforcement. When someone entrusted with upholding the law violates that oath, we are all victims.”

  1. Over two years in the making … finally. The AG has destroyed others in her path using dirty tricks in her efforts.

    Finally there is someone doing something about it, Thanks Risa!

    Corbett while not the greatest person as may have had half a chance at reelection had it not been for the work of Ms. Kane.

    Gov. Tom (Obama Lite) Wolf has asked her to step down … what do you mean asked? Fire the witch hag! ….. its a shame but this is just the tip of the ‘old iceberg’ here in Pennsyltucky. I figure it is about 4 in 10 holding office are corrupt.
