Regardless of recall, Walker may face indictment - by David Shuster

Regardless of recall, Walker may face indictment

By David Shuster / current.com / Take Action News

According to government lawyers familiar with a Milwaukee criminal corruption probe, Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker is now a "target" of the investigation.

The legal sources, who are not involved in Wisconsin's recall, spoke on condition of anonymity. They said Walker faces "serious legal challenges," including "a possible indictment," regardless of the election results on Tuesday.

The sources indicate Walker's status was clarified more than a week ago, allegedly following a series of requests by Walker's legal team that prosecutors publicly clear him of any wrong doing before the recall election. Take Action News reached out to Governor Walker's spokesperson for comment on this story and received no response.

The investigation began in 2010 when Walker served as Milwaukee County executive. Six people have been charged, with accusations ranging from campaigning for Walker on government time to embezzlement. 13 other Walker associates have been given immunity from prosecution in exchange for their testimony in the case.

...and how many of us weren't expecting this ?

Obama is in charge, and the last-minute disqualifying revelation is one of his specialties.

I bet it will be some lower level guy that gets the prison sentence. Not saying Walker is corrupt mind you. I'm just saying that usually this ends up with some lower level person getting nailed.

The left is throwing anything and everything at the wall to see what sticks.  Hell, they don't care if it sticks or not, all they need are the rumors this close to the election.  June Surprise?

Go to Twitter and read the #WIUnionDesperation hash tag.  It's hilarious and some of them could probably be found on DU.
