This is what happens when you hire a power-skirt Democrat SJW as your Attorney General:

Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane announced her resignation Tuesday, a day after she was convicted of perjury and obstruction stemming from her leak of grand jury materials to a Philadelphia newspaper to discredit a political adversary.

On Monday night, a jury convicted Ms. Kane on all nine counts she faced, including two for felony perjury, which each carry potential seven-year prison terms.

Ms. Kane’s lawyer Gerald Shargel vowed to appeal, while calling the verdict “a crushing blow.” She is scheduled to be sentenced within 90 days.

“I have been honored to serve the people of Pennsylvania, and I wish them health and safety in all their days,” Ms. Kane said in a brief statement announcing her resignation, which will become effective Wednesday.

It was a sudden and remarkable end to a once-promising political career. Ms. Kane, who took office in January 2013, was the first woman and first Democrat elected attorney general in the state since the office became elective in 1980. In a state that has yet to elect a woman governor or U.S. Senator, many once viewed either office as being within Ms. Kane’s reach.

Political watchers in Pennsylvania say she squandered her opportunity when she became consumed with petty feuds involving former prosecutors in the attorney general’s office.

“It all falls apart because of this cycle of retaliation and revenge,” said Terry Madonna, a professor of public affairs at Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pa.

Ms. Kane promised during her campaign to investigate whether the prior attorney general, Tom Corbett, and his staff delayed their prosecution of former Penn State assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky until after Mr. Corbett was elected governor to avoid political fallout from Penn State alumni.

Mr. Corbett denied that politics had dictated the pace of the case, which resulted in Mr. Sandusky being convicted of sexually abusing 10 boys. Mr. Sandusky has maintained his innocence and is in the process of appealing his conviction.

An investigator Ms. Kane appointed also found that politics played no role in the Sandusky case. But Ms. Kane’s animus toward former prosecutors in the attorney general’s office, including Frank Fina, who led the Sandusky prosecution, appeared to continue.

During her trial, Ms. Kane’s former political consultant said that in 2014 she asked him to turn over grand jury information to a Philadelphia Daily News reporter about a case Mr. Fina handled to embarrass him. The consultant said Ms. Kane believed that Mr. Fina had previously planted a negative story about her in a separate newspaper.

The Montgomery County District Attorney who prosecuted Ms. Kane said that in addition to illegally leaking the grand jury information, she lied about it under oath.

Ms. Kane has said she was a victim of an “old boys’ network” in Pennsylvania that she had been trying to root out.

She has argued that the case against her was manufactured by Mr. Fina and another former state prosecutor who were seeking to prevent her from releasing offensive and often sexually explicit emails that would harm their careers. The emails were discovered during her review of the Sandusky investigation.

Ms. Kane began releasing a trove of emails in 2014 that has embarrassed a number of state officials and forced several to step down, including a second state Supreme Court justice in March of this year.

Mr. Fina said in an interview Tuesday that he had no role in the earlier article about Ms. Kane. He called her theory that he pushed for an investigation into her grand jury leak to keep her from releasing offensive emails “literally insane.”

“I have never understood what her strange focus and obsession with me has been,” he said. “There have been these characterizations that there was some feud. That’s just false. This was a simple abuse of power.”

Calls for Ms. Kane to resign had grown after her conviction. Soon after the verdict was announced, Democratic Gov. Tom Wolf said she should resign immediately. On Tuesday, Republican state lawmakers also said they would consider taking action to remove her from office if she didn’t resign first.

Frank Fina has never understood her strange focus and obsession with him. But we understand it, don't we guys?

I am shocked, shocked, that she would allow her emotions to dictate her actions!!!

I notice the headlines don't mention her political affiliation. If it was Republican, it would be full blast in the headlines.

When I counsel young men in their careers, I tell them:

- What's the most important thing to know about the guy next to you? What he's thinking.
- What's the most important thing to know about the woman next to you: What she's FEELING. And sometimes, what she's plotting...

This woman is a huge bitch of Clinton magnitude. The fact that she was convicted should give the world hope the pussy pass is not too big to fail.

Several news articles I read on this didn't mention she was a Democrat until the sixth or seventh paragraph. A similar situation is happening with the Baltimore DA, Marilyn Mosby, who probably also will be disbarred or convicted of evidence tampering, among other things.

Ms Kane was actually elected by the voters, not appointed by the governor. What were those people thinking?

They were demoralized and thus unable to assess true information. The truth meant nothing to them. And a lot of them were women and cucks who shouldn't even have the right to vote in the first place. Universal suffrage has failed.

Update: After facing 12-24 years, the pussy pass delivers 10-23 months.

She's also already out of custody on $75k bail while an appeal is pending.

Remember, PA is a major battleground state, and this woman shut down probes of Philly Democrats.

She was a former assistant district attorney in Lackawanna County and rookie politician put in position by Democrats to operate as told.

She's praying for an HRC win right now.

"A judge sentenced former Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane on Monday to 10 to 23 months in prison for committing multiple felonies stemming from a politically motivated act of retribution.

Kane, who resigned after her conviction of perjury and obstruction in August, also will be on probation for eight years following her release, according to Kim Bathgate, spokeswoman for the Office of Pennsylvania Courts.
Kane, a Democrat who was elected in 2012, faced a possible 12-24 years in prison, according to Kate Delano, a spokeswoman for the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office."
