Evidence suggests that Kane did something illegal?
And the GJ wants charges based on a suggestion?
What a politically-motivated crock-o-shit.

I think this just illustrates how easy it is to get a GJ indictment (unless you’re a cop)

Okay, so was there a correction made to this story after publication? Because the URL and title of this discussion both say she was indicted, but the story (now) reads that charges were recommended, but not filed.
That’s a big difference. So was the original story just filed to say “indicted” and corrected before publication, or should there be a correction notice?
(Either way, this is a problem TPM needs to look at ways of addressing. When stories are corrected, it might be necessary to redirect the old, inaccurate URL to a new one that better reflects the present understanding. This happens a lot with sites that cover breaking stories, but it’s something that is at least somewhat addressable.)

Democrat or Republican it makes no difference. If true she should be disbarred, tried and convicted. She needs to go to jail.

“Sources told the Inquirer that the grand jury returned what is called a presentment — not an indictment”
followed by
“The judge who approved the grand jury investigation into Kane, the special prosecutor who handled the investigation, and the district attorney deciding whether to prosecute Kane are all Republicans.”
2 + 2 time…
The grand jury investigation into whether a Dem AG leaked secret grand jury information to embarrass political rivals, is pretty much being organized and spearheaded by GOPers/Teatrolls as a means of embarrassing her as a political rival and, oh look, someone leaked information about it.

Badge of honor, oh wait, wrong party.
The judge who approved the grand jury investigation into Kane, the special prosecutor who handled the investigation, and the district attorney deciding whether to prosecute Kane are all Republicans.
What a string of completely unconnected coincidences!

That last paragraph pretty much sums up the entire story, in a nutshell.

Reminds me of the Robin Williams schtick, “In Alabama, if you sodomize someone, they’ll put you in jail with someone who’s going to sodomize you.”
TPM:
The judge who approved the grand jury investigation into Kane, the special prosecutor who handled the investigation, and the district attorney deciding whether to prosecute Kane are all Republicans.
Ah, well, no political motivation or conflict of interest there.
Seriously, the fact that everyone involved in deciding whether to prosecute Kane is a Republican should have been in the headline and the first paragraph.

This particular situation notwithstanding…
Are we just going to go back to blindly trusting the Grand Jury system now?
(answer: hopefully no)
Aren’t we at the point where we need to know the affiliations/BG/possible agenda of ANY prosecutor handling ANY Grand Jury these days?
(answer: yes. sadly, yes)

Sociopaths are not all GOP.
I’ll need some verification of that - my research would indicate otherwise.
