A criminal trial against Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane began Monday, opening the next chapter in a more than three-year political scandal that’s roiled the state government.
The case stems from a scandal back when Kane took office in 2013, promising to review how officials handled the Jerry Sandusky child abuse case at Penn State. Kane is now facing charges that she illegally leaked grand jury information to harm a political rival.
The Democratic attorneyhas pleaded not guilty, insistingthe charges were brought against her as revenge after sheuncovered a cache of pornographic and bigoted emails that were being swapped among high-ranking state employees at her office, using their government email accounts.
Jury selection continued into the late afternoon Monday, as Montgomery County prosecutors and Kane’s defense team worked to whittle down 100 potential jurors to 12, Penn Live reported.
