Attorney General Kathleen Kane sat down with 6abc’s Nydia Han yesterday and discussed her ongoing legal battle.
Kane once again asserted that she won’t resign.
“Why not step down and let someone unencumbered by those things take over and really focus on this job at hand?” Han asked.
“We do focus on the job at hand,” Kane responded. “We’ve had a record number of monies that are returned to the Commonwealth. Our child predator unit has an 800 percent increase in arrests of child predators in Pennsylvania. We’re in it to actually get the job done, we’re getting it done and the reason I don’t resign is because I’ve done nothing wrong.”
Han then tried a different tactic.
“I know that you’ve said that legally you did nothing wrong. Looking back, do you think perhaps ethically there was something-”
“No, no I don’t,” Kane interjected. “My friends and everyone who know me know that I don’t even jaywalk.”
Finally, the AG was asked if she could’ve handled her situation better.
“You’ve talked about the impact this has had on you personally and on your two teenage sons – if you could have a do-over, what, if anything, would you do differently?”
“That’s hard to say,” Kane stated. “There are certain things that of course you don’t know until you get there.”

HAHAHA. Here’s the story
HARRISBURG — Attorney General Kathleen Kane’s political consultant was caught on an FBI wiretap talking about how she wanted the consultant’s help in passing along documents that later became the subject of a grand jury leak probe, The Morning Call has learned.
The FBI recorded the conversation between Kane’s consultant, Josh Morrow, and an unidentified person during its 2014 extortion investigation of state Treasurer Rob McCord, a source told the newspaper.
The FBI later provided the recording to the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office, which has charged Kane with lying about her role in passing along the grand jury documents that were discussed in the call, the source said. The grand jury documents involved were supposed to be kept private. Instead, prosecutors say, they were used by Kane to discredit a rival. County prosecutors gave the recording to Kane’s legal defense team Feb. 5 in preparation for her trial this summer, the source said.
Ten days later, Kane announced that for her children’s sake, she would not seek re-election.
HAHAHA. Didnt the Feds turn over information from a wiretap to her attorneys and then she decided she wouldn’t run again?
Loyal Ddm – I am going to assume you are not the pathetic retard troll for now (though I suspect you are).
The only known federal investigation of the people involved is the FBI’s criminal investigation of Seth Williams. The lawyer that allegedly helped Williams out in the infancy of that criminal investigation (Bob Levant) is also Frank Fina’s lawyer and he is also con-man Tyron Ali’s lawyer.
Seth Williams just hired Bob Levant’s wife as his Chief of Staff and General Counsel. But the woman has no general counsel experience and very little prosecutorial experience.
Gina and Levant are suing the State of PA for taxpayer money. Levant’s wife stands to gain if they win.
Something is rotten at the DA’s Office.
Smokescreen. I’m sure her lawyer I smart nough to request a change of venue or a change of veneer as a pre trial motion. What makes you hunk she won’t plead guilty especially in light of the FBI investigation
If Kane receives a “guilty” verdict in the upcoming August trial, one can expect that her defense legal counsel will immediately appeal the verdict on the grounds that the overwhelming media exposure prevented Kane from receiving a fair and impartial trial.
HaHU. Don’t ever think that anyone would obsess over the likes of you. That’s why you’re still living at home in mommys basement. Actually, you intentionally do stuff so people will write about you. My only interest in you is the same question. Tell us all Have you been arrested? If so, where did you do your time. Simple now go writ something that will show everyone what a fool you are. Also, I think it’s very fair to say you’ve been outed and are now owned. Go back to playing with your trolls.
I can’t stop myself!! I am obsessed with HaHaHa. I’m like a little girl at a Bieber concert. I just LOVE HaHaHa. He ignores me – but I don’t care!!! #HaHUForever!!
HaHU. This is me talking to myself. “Hmmm I wonder if HaHU really was arrested and in jail. If that’s the case he was some big man’s little troll in there. Yeah, that’s why he keeps calling people trolls cause he wants people jut like him” “Did FF prosecute him and that’s why he posts such negative stuff.” Oh HaHU your mother is calling you for dinner and then it’s bath time. Don’t forget to say your prayers after all you’re probably used to being on your knees.
Marie – Look at the guy running “Friends of Seth Williams.” He is a life-long Repervlican operative!!
Has Seth Williams endorsed Donald Trump yet?!?
RETARD troll talking to himself again below …
PaDem. Ok where’s the post you’re talking about
I think this one is even worse for Seth Williams:
http://www.philly.com/philly/news/politics/20160314_On_the_rocks__Democratic_D_A__Williams_turns_to_GOP_pols_in_Harrisburg.html
It is clear that he is now a NOBODY in the Democratic party. It proves that he is now completely in bed with Fina & The Corbett Pervs. And then there’s the fact that he has a Harrisburg bartender running his PAC – a Harrisburg bartender that denies knowing anything about Seth Williams’ PAC.
Poor Seth. His career was going so well. And then he met Frank Fina …
Here’s the article:
http://www.philly.com/philly/news/politics/20160310_Pa__Supreme_Court_rebukes_Phila__judge_for_misconduct.html
Sure – Brady feels betrayed …
Seth is a GREAT GUY. He helped get me on the Bench despite my MULTIPLE disciplinary infractions. I am a boob and a POS. But, Seth still helped me!! Solid guy. Solid guy.
Da patthetic troll be’s talkin’ wit himselv agein
Pa Dem. Don’t see anything under Pa Dem why don’t you just repost it
Has Mikkeal Eakin resigner yet? He be’s an disgrace to Supreem Kort.
See – I am getting confused. I need to type HaHaHa a few more times to calm down … HaHaHa … HaHaHa … HaHaHa …
** Somebody help me **
PaDem. Don’t see anything after your post The cops have it coming
Retard – I am you, the RETARD. I am SpongeRetard. I am Unsanctioned Retard. Any time I try to cover-up my many screen-names, I look like an even bigger RETARD.
** Somebody help me **
skoolteacher, im padem. see my post yesterday morning
HaHU your words have no credability to please try and limit what you copied from someone else and post here to a minimum. We still are waiting for your answer and I think it’s obvious to everyone that you evade the question of Have you been arrested and if so what prison did you go to. If your refusal to answer this is because of the sensitive nature of the charges don’t worry you’re among friends here.
Seriously though … When is Seth Williams going to be asked the tough questions? How much more damage is he going to be allowed to do at the DA’s Office?
Here’s Seth Williams’ Chief of Staff, Kathy Martin, defending Frank Fina and his racist, pervert buddies:
“Keeping them here [at the Philadelphia D.A.’s Office] working exhibits our faith in them that they’re smart, capable, hard-working, dedicated civil servants,” Kathy Martin said.
But their attitudes towards minorities, women and homosexuals is very disturbing, though. The fact that they shared the material with Judges they appeared in front of is even more disturbing. They created a group of people who all had the goods on each other. People that shared the same racist, woman-hating attitudes. And, once you were part of that group, the other members had a hammer they could hold over you.
We know that Frank Fina was one of the prosecutors in this group. He prosecuted people for mis-using their State computers. And then he used his State computer on this:https://www.flickr.com/photos/…. That is but one example. There are many others.
When AG Kane won, but before she took office, Fina finalized his “unjust” plea deal with Tyron Ali. Bruce Beemer called it “unjust.” Fina dropped all of the over 2,000 criminal charges that were pending against Ali. Fina also let Ali keep the $430K he stole from a non-profit set up to help children. It was taxpayer money.
Con-man Ali’s lawyer is Bob Levant. Fina negotiated that sweet deal, in the 11th hour (right before Kane was set to take over) with Levant.
And now Fina is suing the AG’s Office for more taxpayer money. And guess who one of his lawyers is? Yep — Bob Levant.
Rumor has it that Bob Levant has also helped Seth Williams with the FBI’s criminal investigation into Williams.
A ways back, Seth Williams hired Frank Fina. Whether he knew of Fina’s “issues” when he hired him we may never know. But Williams certainly knows now. The Superior Court just called Fina’s conduct in the Penn State case “highly improper.”
“Chief of Staff” is a high paying job. Seth Williams hired Kathy Martin off the street into that job. She has zero general counsel experience and hardly any prosecutorial experience.
But – she is Bob Levant’s wife. Now – Seth Williams’ “Chief of Staff” is in the Press, speaking on behalf of the Philadelphia DA’s Office, defending and praising her husband’s racist client – Frank Fina.
Huge coincidence, huh?? I think not. It’s no wonder that Williams refuses to fire Fina. They are in bed together. Levant and Martin are on that stinky mattress too.
Is it really OK that Kathy Martin, a high-paid City employee, has a financial interest in smearing the AG and propping up her husband’s client, Frank Fina?
Something is rotten at the DA’s Office.
I am coming unglued again!!
** Somebody help me **
WAH !!!! Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
I am a RETARD. So don’t pick on me.
WAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
DD. Yeah there was another one who enjoyed expressing his manhood through the anonymity of the Internet. When it cam to backing up his words with a group of parents whose children are inflicted with this illness he ran and hid under HaHU’s moms skirt. First he had to push HaHU out of there. Yeah all tough guys picking on the defenseless.
HaHU come on tell us if you were arrested before. It’s not a tough question. You know, could that information be of public record? How was it dressed like a troll.
Yeah!! Let’s get together!!!!! I also have some RETARD’s parents who want to meet up with DD. He refuses, though.
** Somebody help me **
PADEM. Still waiting for your answer about getting together to discuss your comments about the police. It’s easy to talk tough in the world of anonymity. You aren’t man enough to shine their shoes.
I long for DD because he actually talks to me !!
DD — please come back! I am a RETARD who needs company!!!
How was the confab, my groupie troll?
Unless you’re a cop:
http://lawofficer.com/2016/03/13/maryland-officer-killed-in-planned-ambush/
I wonder where the know it all David Diano is? Another cop murdered while protecting the lives of others and he lumps everyone with a badge together. Yet he sits silent while those in the Democratic party hold their boot to minorities to help them win an election. Always avoiding the answers to the hard questions. If liberals were so freaking great why, why in the world are the these cities where the violence is so rampant, run be democrats, still voting for these people. In Chicago it’s whose fault about the racial divide? The Have’s and the have nots? The D’s run everything there so why if they are the party the will lift minorities, poor people etc…..why is it not working? Is it because the longer people stay poor and the more they are convinced that these people in power are the only ones who care they will keep voting for them? It’s easier to call out some cops who went past the line then call attention to the fact that years of failed policies and process have kept people right where they are. Better to blame the other side because that’s how you win elections. That and spitting on the graves of Officers killed in the line…
I LOVE DONALD TRUMP!!
But not as much as I love HaHaHa. I am obsessed with HaHaHa. I can’t stop typing HaHaHa. I dream about HaHaHa.
** Somebody help me **
Whoa!!! Don’t go lumping Seth Williams in with me.
What I don’t get is why Seth Williams walked into this circular firing squad. Is it because he knew he was on the ropes as the Feds investigated him criminally?
Is it because he has always been a Repervlican at heart?
Is it because his ambition got the best of him and he thought Fina & The Corbett Pervs could help him become AG … or Governor?
It doesn’t matter now. The guy’s career is toast. It’s not just that he is friendless. It’s also the fact that he is a flaming asshole with no morals, loyalty, or ethics.
If HaHU was in prison maybe they dressed him as a troll and rode him around like he was a clown car. Hmmmm. Since he isn’t saying………I wonder if FF could have been involved in the prosecution. Just speculation you know.
…. and then Retard School Teacher (his new one).
… and then SpongeRetard again …
Oh look. Now the pathetic troll is back to the Unsanctioned Retard screen-name. LMAO.
HaHU. Why are you avoiding the question troll. Were you arrested driving your clown car?. Was it something more serious? Come on you can tell us we’re your friends. No wonder you live with mommy.
I wonder if when he was in prison he invented these different personalities. Sitting in his prison cell like Gollum talking about his previous while holding a handmade doll fashioned to look like Fina.
As the issue becomes buried in incomplete information and chaotic distractions, those responsible for fixing the mess are controlled by the secrecy they created to conceal the corruption.
The absolute undeniable denial of ALL civil rights, ALL constitutional rights, ALL human rights, Life and Liberty with NO protection of the law, NO due process or procedure; AND deliberate judicial actions without hearings or evidence to further create chaos and which sabotage my case by assigning a public defender.
The Public Defender who has neglected the impropriety and lawlessness AND fails to contact me WHILE deliberately ignoring the pending Appeals in the matter. THESE ACTIONS SABOTAGE MY EFFORTS TO SURVIVE AND DOCUMENT THE ISSUES.
Ineffective counsel compelled upon me to sabotage my rights and ignore every fact of the case and conceal the extreme corruption and injustice which can only be called TERRORISTIC.
Using every available resource, the Montgomery County District Attorney and the entire Montgomery County judiciary have terrorized my life for ten (10) years, stolen everything I own, compromised my liberty and freedom, and threaten to continue their unrelenting and aggressive malice.
I have requested the assistance of Government officials, the governor, the Legislature, and Federal authorities… yet, they fail to reply. Although Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen has indicated in the media that ‘secret orders from unidentified courts’ PERSONALLY prevent her from performing the responsibilities of her elected office. Perhaps … those secret courts have issued further orders preventing the Executive and Legislative branches from their responsibilities also.
BUT, ONE BRANCH CANNOT TAKE OVER THE ENTIRE GOVERNMENT. ???
I wish to file criminal charges against those involved in the Denial of my civil rights, my Constitutional rights and my human rights. Judge William Carpenter. Lauren McNulty. Risa Ferman. Kevin Steele. Etc…
As the effort to harass me through false criminal allegations has now continued for over a year, my right to a speedy trial has also been ignored. This is all part of the effort to run out any statute of limitations on the fraudulent conveyance of my home while a new period tolls for the insurance fraud by those involved. The conspiracy never ends and has now been continuing for 10 years.
Please contact me to arrange a meeting.
Please confirm receipt and disposition of this email.

Pat, marie, Hahaha. You guys must hang out a lot. Your’re always coming and going together. Where’s kraig and the rest of the posse?
Speaking of Seth Williams and creeps he has surrounded himself with — when is someone going to force him to answer questions about his relationship with Bob Levant and the way he is spending taxpayer money?
Here’s Seth Williams’ Chief of Staff, Kathy Martin, defending Frank Fina and his racist, pervert buddies:
“Keeping them here [at the Philadelphia D.A.’s Office] working exhibits our faith in them that they’re smart, capable, hard-working, dedicated civil servants,” Martin said.

Great piece by Chris Brennan, Marie. Thanks for posting.
Seth Williams is truly ON THE ROCKS. He has no money. He has no supporters. Thus, he has no prospects of raising significant money. That is what happens hen you spend the money people gave you on personal expenses (like gym memberships). So – what is a scum-bag to do? In this case, scum-bag Williams turns to the pieces of shit that used him and his Office to smear AG Kane in an effort to cover up their own mis-deeds.
Williams is a creep. He has surrounded himself with creeps. And now, he is turning to other creeps to help him raise money. It’s pathetic. These morons had to turn to a bartender so they would have a Democrat as the head of the PAC. But they didn’t think a reporter would track the guy down and start asking questions.
Williams epitomizes all that is wrong with a politician as a prosecutor. He better get fitted for that orange jump-suit.
HaHU Come on clown man troll tell us have you been arrested and who prosecuted you. Tell us HaHU Oh I forgot ask mommy first.
Once again this felon whom Fina busted and put in prison makes a fool of himself. You are a piece of trash talking the way you do about an officer being murdered.
More bad news for Seth Williams:

SpongeRetard has no real issues left. Trump deflating their (grand ol) party to the point where they just yell about police officers being shot. Sad. Pathetic. RETARDED.
