Kane`s Lawyer Speaks Out

PHILADELPHIA — Attorney General Kathleen Kane’s personal lawyer says the attorney general never broke the law and never leaked confidential information about a grand jury to a newspaper.

Attorney Lanny Davis held a news conference in Philadelphia after the Inquirer newspaper reported that a grand jury is recommending criminal charges against Kane.

Her attorney says Kane is the target of dirty politics.

Davis was Bill Clinton’s crisis manager during the Monica Lewinsky scandal of the late 1990s. Now he is defending Kane.

“Kathleen Kane is innocent,” Davis said.

Davis calls the potential prosecution of Kane “a sham.”

“This railroad train seems to me to be driven by some men with grudges to railroad Kathleen Kane out of office and destroy her career.”

Davis said it started when Kane was elected to office in 2012 and ordered a review of why it took so long for the administration of former Attorney General and outgoing Governor Tom Corbett to bring charges against Jerry Sandusky.

That investigation included a review of emails, which led to the discovery of several state officials sending and receiving pornographic and offensive material on state equipment and on state time.

Davis said at least one of the men in the Office of Attorney General whose complaints led to the grand jury investigation of Kane was sending and receiving these emails.

“Repulsive, incredibly racist, awful stuff I’ve ever seen in my lifetime were being circulated by a group of men. Many of them, the same prosecutors who were investigating the child molester Sandusky,” said Davis.

Davis notes the judge authorizing the special prosecutor and the special prosecutor are Republicans.

Kane is a Democrat.

And here in the City of Brotherly Love, Kane’s attorney is suggesting sexism is playing a part in the case against her.

“My only conclusion is there is a targeted, focused effort at one person who happens to be a female Democrat,” Davis said.

The judge, the special prosecutor, and anyone who may have had a role in the grand jury investigation have not made any public statements. And there is no timetable for a Montgomery County prosecutor to decide whether or not to bring criminal charges against the attorney general.

THE PHONY JUDICIAL WATCH:  PART OF THE PEDOPHILE PROTECTION LEAGUE!

JW Exposed Pa. AG Corruption Years Before Her Conviction

OCTOBER 27, 2016

Years before Pennsylvania’s first Democrat and first female Attorney General got convicted of crimes, Judicial Watch helped expose the corrupt way in which she ran her public office. The state’s disgraced top prosecutor, Kathleen Kane, was hauled away from a courtroom in handcuffs this week after getting sentenced to 10 to 23 month in jail. In August, a jury found Kane guilty perjury and obstruction for illegally disclosing details from a grand jury investigation to retaliate against a political rival then lying about it under oath.

Philadelphia’s largest newspaper described Kane’s sentencing this week as “capping a spectacular downfall for a woman once seen as one of the state’s fastest-rising stars.” Kane’s first year in office was marked by political and public relations successes, the paper states, but it went downhill from there. After “her star began to dim in 2014, she leaked confidential grand jury material to a newspaper in a bid to embarrass a political enemy, then lied about her actions under oath,” the story says. At this week’s five-hour sentencing hearing in Montgomery County the judge blasted Kane and rejected calls for leniency. The former prosecutor used and exploited her position to battle perceived enemies instead of focusing on the business of fighting crime, the judge, Wendy Demchick-Alley, said during the hearing.

The leak stems from a feud that Kane had with a former prosecutor in her office named Frank Fina, who Kane accused of planting a damaging media story. Before Kane got elected the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office ran a years-long, undercover sting operation that busted leading state Democrats embroiled in a bribery scheme. At the time the Attorney General was Republican Tom Corbett. When Kane took office in 2013, she shut the operation down. Before Kane ended the investigation, sources familiar with the inquiry said, prosecutors amassed 400 hours of audio and videotape that documented at least four city Democrats taking payments in cash or money orders, and in one case, a $2,000 Tiffany bracelet.

Back In 2014 Judicial Watch testified before a Pennsylvania House State Government Committee investigating Kane for refusing to uphold Commonwealth laws that she didn’t agree with. Judicial Watch Attorney Michael Bekesha explained to the panel that Kane had consistently failed to honor her sworn oath to uphold the state’s constitution by, among other things, refusing to defend the state’s marriage laws and failing to prosecute elected officials for accepting cash and other gifts in exchange for political favors. Bekesha also pointed out to the committee that the State Ethics Commission concluded that the promotion of Kane’s sister to Chief Deputy Attorney General in the child predator section created a perception that the promotion was not free from Kane’s influence. “Attorney General Kane is lawless,” Bekesha testified, adding that just the appearance of impropriety or misbehavior damages the office.

Kane has close ties to the Clintons and she worked on Hillary’s 2008 failed presidential campaign. In 2012 Bill Clinton endorsed Kane for Attorney General over former Pennsylvania Congressman Patrick Murphy. At the time the former president said “Kathleen is a great Democrat who understands that an Attorney General’s job is to stand up for consumers and people,” according to a press release dug up by a news outlet this week. After winning the election and making history as the first woman and first Democrat to hold the office, Kane was considered a rising star in the Democratic Party. Some believed she had a bright future in the U.S. Senate. Instead, the disgraced Attorney General is going to jail and her license to practice law has been suspended.
