The PJ Tatler » According to Pennsylvania’s Democrat Attorney General, Anti-Bribery Laws Are Only For White People

The PJ Tatler » According to Pennsylvania’s Democrat Attorney General, Anti-Bribery Laws Are Only For White People: "Kane shut down an investigation that had amassed serious evidence — and a lot of it — that several public officials sold their votes on a specific issue.

The Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office ran an undercover sting operation over three years that captured leading Philadelphia Democrats, including four members of the city’s state House delegation, on tape accepting money, The Inquirer has learned.

Yet no one was charged with a crime.

Prosecutors began the sting in 2010 when Republican Tom Corbett was attorney general. After Democrat Kathleen G. Kane took office in 2013, she shut it down.

In a statement to The Inquirer on Friday, Kane called the investigation poorly conceived, badly managed, and tainted by racism, saying it had targeted African Americans."
