(Via Daily Mail) Former Attorney General Kathleen Kane was sentenced Monday to 10 to 23 months in jail for illegally disclosing details from a grand jury investigation to embarrass a rival and lying about it under oath.

Kane was also sentenced to eight years of probation by a Montgomery County judge who said Kane’s ego drove her to take down enemies and break the law.

Judge Wendy Demchick-Alloy said Kane assumed an ‘off with your heads’ mentality as she ran the state’s top law enforcement agency.   The judge called Kane a political ‘neophyte’ who failed to make the transition from campaigner to public servant after she took office.

‘This case is about ego — the ego of a politician consumed with her image from Day One,’ Demchick-Alloy said. ‘This case is about retaliation and revenge against perceived enemies who this defendant … felt had embarrassed her in the press.’

Kane, the first woman and first Democrat elected as the state’s top prosecutor, was handcuffed in court and led out a side door. She will remain in custody until she posts $75,000 cash bail, higher than she had previously posted.  (read more)
