Good Riddance: Penn. Attorney General Steps Down

Finally, there is some justice in Pennsylvania. Its Attorney General Kathleen Kane has been found guilty on nine counts, including two felony perjury charges; she was also convicted of criminal conspiracy and obstruction of justice. The six men and six women on the jury convicted her of leaking grand jury information, and then lying about it.

Amazingly, even after she was convicted, she remained the Attorney General of Pennsylvania, even though she was stripped of her law license. But today she stepped down, knowing she was toast.

Kane sought to destroy her opposition, and succeeded in ruining the lives of state officials; she even cost two State Supreme Court justices their jobs. Why should this matter to those outside Pennsylvania? Because Kane is a vindictive, radical feminist out to prove that she can "take down the boys." And as I pointed out a few months ago, she also waged war against the Catholic Church.

Kane made a name for herself by promising voters that she would get to the bottom of the Penn State University scandal. She said she would review the investigation into Jerry Sandusky, the assistant coach who worked under Joe Paterno; he was convicted of sexual abuse...

On March 10, I raised this question. "Anyone who knows anything about the subject of the sexual abuse of minors knows that there is not a single demographic group, or institution, that has not had a lousy record of dealing with this problem. Swimming coaches, camp counselors, Boy Scouts, psychologists, public school teachers, rabbis, ministers, Hollywood producers—all have a sordid past. So why is it that only the Catholic Church is fingered?"

It’s surprising how little media attention this has received. A state’d AG convicted of nine felonies, and hardly any notice? In PA, not that far from the NYC media center? Could it have anything to do with her party affiliation or association with a certain Arkansas Grifter who’s running for POTUS?

Don't forget lawyers, doctors, politicians. There are those who believe that Sandusky was a very small potato in a really big field. Just that the big players are connected and wield a lot of power/influence. Hopefully they won't be able to hide forever.

“So why is it that only the Catholic Church is fingered?”

1. Because they claim to represent the Righteous & Holy Christ on earth and this was unrighteous & unholy.
2. Because abusers were shuffled around *by the leadership* to protect the appearance of the church and the abusers instead of brepenting and seeking forgiveness (see #1).
3. Because they denied what happened and slimed the victims to protect themselves, instead of acting like what they claimed to be (see #1).

It’s not hard to understand, sadly.

No mention of party affiliation in the paragraphs leading to the article. She must be a Democrat.

Low hanging fruit for the law enforcement working these kinds of cases.

"Attorney General Kathleen Kane has been found guilty on nine counts, including two felony perjury charges; she was also convicted of criminal conspiracy and obstruction of justice."

So, when is the sentencing? Wonder if she will do any actual prison time.

I’m sure that after she serves her probation she will be named to the State Supreme Court.

Not bad looking. Doesn’t that count for something? What if she did it with underaged guys?

One of Clintoon’s “girlfriends” is out of a job. No matter, Clintoon will put her at the head of her Feminazi Commission.
