"Less than a week after state Attorney General Kathleen Kane called for the release of allegedly pornographic and racist emails she claims are at the heart of a political vendetta against her, the state Supreme Court has unsealed orders in the underlying cases, and signaled that more documents could be unsealed soon.
On Tuesday afternoon, the court issued two orders unsealing previous orders in a case that involved Kane’s challenge to the authority of the judge who supervised the 35th Statewide Investigating Grand Jury. That grand jury recommended Kane face criminal charges related to allegedly leaking grand jury secrets. Charges against her were filed earlier this month.
Both unsealed orders granted Kane’s motions to file her challenge under seal. However, the orders also note that the purpose of the protective order that supervising grand jury Judge William R. Carpenter issued was “not intended to restrict or impact ‘appropriate public [disclosure]’ of information connected with the possession and/or distribution of possibly pornographic images by members of the [Office of Attorney General].”
Both unsealed orders had been entered Dec. 19 in the cases Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General v. Supervising Judge of the Thirty-Fifth Statewide Investigating Grand Jury and In re the Thirty-Five Statewide Investigating Grand Jury.
The unsealed orders also said that the purpose of Carpenter’s order was to “prevent the intimidation, obstruction and/or retaliation, in the ordinary sense of the words ... [and] was never intended to prevent the [Office of Attorney General] from carrying out its constitutional duties.”
In a press conference Aug. 12, Kane said the charges against her are part of a plan to keep the email chain under wraps. She called on Carpenter to allow all the emails to be released.
“In light of public statements made last week by Attorney General Kane, the court is releasing two previously sealed orders for public view, after confirming that there are no present concerns with grand-jury secrecy associated with such release,” the Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts said in a statement issued along with the unsealing orders. “The court is presently engaged in a broader review to determine whether additional associated documents lodged in the prothonotary’s office may now be unsealed.”
In a statement released to the press, Kane’s attorney, Gerald L. Shargel of Winston & Strawn, said he and Kane were pleased with the unsealing orders, and said “it is our hope” that the Supreme Court will released additional related documents.
“We expect that appropriate public disclosure will occur in connection with the vigorous defense of the criminal charges that have been laid against her,” Shargel said in the statement. “These images and the emails to which they are attached are essential to demonstrating Attorney General Kane’s innocence, and the abject flaws of the district attorney’s affidavit of probable cause.”
