Kathleen Kane, pictured in cuffs, was found guilty
50-year-old Kathleen Kane, is being sentenced to up to
2-years in prison for engaging in "egregious" criminal
abuses at the State Attorney's office in Pennsylvania. Kane
leaked confidential files to the press, in a bid to
discredit and embarrass a rival. Former U.S. president, Bill
Clinton, campaigned for Kane and she won the post, she has
now been fired from in disgrace.
Things were dreadful for those who worked under Kane at the
State Attorney's Office. Employees described Kane's behavior
as paranoid and "Nixonian" (disgraced former president
Richard Nixon). When Kane's behavior crossed into vengeful,
vindictive territory, she was arrested for mishandling
confidential files. Hmm, sounds just like Hillary Clinton,
except Kane failed to issue the right bribes, job
inducements and threats to the FBI and DOJ to skate on the
charges.
Kathleen Kane and Bill Clinton on the campaign trail when
the Clintons helped get her elected in what began a reign of
terror
Kane, much like Retired Marine General James Cartwright, are
being made examples of by the U.S. government, after losing
its name in the nation and the world, for letting Hillary
Clinton skate on serious criminal behavior FBI Director
James Comey vowed to lock up anyone else for who dares try
the same thing. Hypocrites!
I will state this, Kane deserves the punishment being meted
out by the court. Cartwright does not deserve a prison
sentence, as his conduct did not harm or sellout the
American people. However, Clinton sold out the American
people's best interests on a regularly basis via the Clinton
Foundation. She used private servers, as her behavior was
completely illegal ('Clinton
Cash').

Ex-attorney general sentenced to jail, then cuffed in court
October 24, 2016 - NORRISTOWN, Pa. (AP) —
Former state Attorney General Kathleen Kane, once a rising
star in state politics, left a courtroom in handcuffs on
Monday after getting a 10- to 23-month sentence for a
retaliation scheme a judge linked to her all-consuming ego.
Kane, 50, also was sentenced to eight years of probation by
a Montgomery County judge, who said Kane's need for revenge
led her to break the law and then lie to a grand jury. Kane,
who was accused of leaking secret investigative files to
embarrass a rival prosecutor, was convicted of perjury and
obstruction.
Judge Wendy Demchick-Alloy said Kane assumed
an "off with your heads" mentality as she ran the state's
top law enforcement agency. The judge called Kane a
political "neophyte" who failed to make the transition from
politician to public servant when she took office in 2013.
Kane, the first woman and first Democrat elected as the
state's top prosecutor, was released Monday after posting
$75,000 cash bail. She can remain free while her legal team
appeals her conviction. "I really don't care what happens to
me," Kane told the judge. "There is no more torture in the
world than to watch your children suffer and know you had
something to do with it."...

Ex-state attorney general hopes to avoid jail for perjury
Ex-state attorney general hopes to avoid jail for perjury
October 23, 2016 - PHILADELPHIA (AP) —
A once-rising star in Pennsylvania politics will learn
Monday whether she is heading to prison over a feud that led
the state attorney general to leak grand jury materials to
the press and lie about it under oath. Democrat Kathleen
Kane, 50, argues that the loss of her career, law license
and reputation is punishment enough. She has asked a judge
in suburban Philadelphia to sentence her to probation or
house arrest so she can be home to raise her two teenage
sons.
However, prosecutors call her crimes
"egregious" and will push for jail time. They say a paranoid
Kane demeaned the 800-person office and threw the state's
law enforcement community into turmoil through a calculated
scheme to embarrass a rival prosecutor who had left the
office. Kane "repeatedly misused her official authority to
advance her personal vendettas," Montgomery County District
Attorney Kevin Steele, a fellow Democrat, wrote in a
sentencing memo last week...
