A bad run for the nation’s attorneys general. From Pennsylvania:

Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane, the state’s top prosecutor, was criminally charged Thursday in a scheme to leak grand jury material and later cover it up — a stunning blow to a political career that was once on a steep ascent.
At a news conference in Norristown, Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Vetri Ferman unveiled an indictment including charges of perjury, official oppression, and obstruction of justice.
Also charged was Patrick Reese, a member of Kane’s security detail and her driver, who stands accused of aiding the attorney general in the alleged cover-up by sneaking into grand jury files.
Ferman said her office’s investigation remains active and that others could still face charges.
. . . The indictment against her paints a portrait of Kane’s office as a roiling cauldron of thinly-veiled resentments, revenge plots and espionage.

And the ongoing drama in Texas:

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and a top state health official were ordered to appear before a federal judge in San Antonio next week to determine if they should be held in contempt for violating a court order prohibiting enforcement of the state’s ban on same-sex marriage.
. . . Wednesday’s order was the latest round of legal trouble for Paxton, who is facing three felony counts of state securities law violations in Collin County, north of Dallas. The criminal charges are related to Paxton’s business activities in 2011-12, when he was a member of the Texas House, and are unrelated to his position as attorney general.

A few others are in rough spots, too.

But all is not lost in the world of prosecutors: Rosemary Lehmberg remains in office.
