Former Democrat Pennsylvania Attny. Gen. Kathleen Kane Ordered to Prison
1:44
Pennsylvania’s Former Democrat Attorney General Kathleen Kane was ordered to report to prison for an up to two-year prison term in a corruption case this week.
Kane, who has been free on a $75,000 bail as she appealed her 10 to 23-month sentence, was ordered to prison after the state Supreme Court refused to take her case, Fox News reported.
Judge Wendy Demchick-Alloy revoked Kane’s bail saying that the time she could remain free on appeal has expired and ordered the former Democrat official to remand herself to jail.
Prosecutors asked for the prison sentence to begin on Tuesday saying that the Supreme Court’s refusal ended Kane’s possibilities of winning a reversal of her conviction.
“Two different appellate courts have reviewed her case, yet her judgment of sentence remains,” District Attorney Kevin Steele said of Kane’s appeals. “She received a fair trial, her guilt was proven beyond a reasonable doubt, and now it is time for her to serve her sentence.”
A former Hillary Clinton staffer, Kane was the first woman and first Democrat elected as Pennsylvania’s AG but resigned from office immediately after her corruption conviction in 2016.
Kane was arrested in 2016 for disclosing to the press confidential information about a state investigation. Critics claimed she illegally released the info purely for political reasons.
In August of 2016, a Montgomery County jury convicted Kane on nine counts, including perjury, official oppression, and obstruction of justice.

CORRUPTION
"This is how they
will destroy America from within. The leftist billionaires who
orchestrate these plans are wealthy. Those tasked with representing us in
Congress will never be exposed to the cost of the invasion of millions of
migrants. They have nothing but contempt for those of us who must
endure the consequences of our communities being intruded upon by gang members,
drug dealers and human traffickers. These people have no intention
of becoming Americans; like the Democrats who welcome them, they have contempt
for us." PATRICIA McCARTHY

Democrats are apparently fine with catch-and-release policies because they see
the likely electoral benefits. According to Customs and Border Protection
(CPB), of the 94,285 Central American family units apprehended last year, 99
percent of them remain in the country today. CPB also reports that 98 percent
of the 31,754 unaccompanied minors from the Northern Triangle of Central
America remain in the country. CAL THOMAS
