Kathleen Kane Convicted on All Counts
In front of a republican judge.
Being a Pennsylvanian, imo her mistake was going after the good old boy network here.
I think she was quite brave in taking these people on.
The republican judge seems to have cut off her main avenue of defense, the fact that she angered the good old boys by exposing some of their activities.
Sad to see her being thrown under the bus for the sake of political expediency.
