Philadelphia DA charges 3 more in once-abandoned sting operation
By Andrew Staub / March 11, 2015
Yo, the typical Democrat behavior, when they think they rule!!!
HARRISBURG, Pa. — Attorney General Kathleen Kane scuttled a probe that caught several Philadelphia Democrats accepting money. The case, she said, was tainted by racism and too flawed to prosecute.
But after taking over the abandoned operation, Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams could prove Kane wrong and leave a blemish on her record as the state’s top prosecutor.
Williams on Tuesday announced bribery, conspiracy and other charges against two sitting state lawmakers and one former state representative, all caught accepting money in exchange for political favors during the undercover operation the Attorney General’s Office conducted between 2010 and 2012, according to the district attorney.
All told, four current lawmakers, one former lawmaker and the former Philadelphia Traffic Court president judge have been charged in the case Kane abandoned. Williams, a black Democrat who employs prosecutors who worked on the sting, has disputed Kane’s claims the investigation was flawed. In a statement Tuesday, he said “there are no free passes when it comes to corruption and the elected officials who break the law.”
“The citizens of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the people of Philadelphia deserve nothing but honest and hardworking representation,” he said. “They don’t deserve elected officials who think that it is OK to sell their office.”
