Reply #3: I'm sure there are more Alaska state politicians

who will be nailed, most notably Ben Stevens, and, I would hope, Frank Murkowski, among others. We heard a while ago that there were still at least a dozen investigations going on here, but there have been no new indictments since Tom Anderson, Pete Kott, Vic Kohring, and Bruce Weyhrauch, and the guilty pleas from Frank Prewitt, Jim Clark and the VECO guys. It's been eerily quiet here, but I have no doubt that there will be more.

My husband's theory is that the feds are waiting to indict Ben Stevens until Ted is out of the picture, power- and influence-wise -- either indicted himself or by being defeated in November -- so that he won't be able to save his boy.
