Palin Exonerated

Palin Exonerated

From the November 3, 2008 Miami Herald:
A new report, released just hours before the polls open on Election Day, exonerates Gov. Sarah Palin in the "Troopergate" controversy.

The state Personnel Board-sanctioned investigation is the second into whether Palin violated state ethics law in firing her public safety commissioner earlier this year, and it contradicts the earlier findings by a special counsel hired by the state Legislature.

...


But the new report says the Legislature's investigator was wrong to conclude that Palin abused her power by allowing aides and her husband, Todd, to pressure Monegan and others to dismiss her ex-brother-in-law, Trooper Mike Wooten. Palin was accused of firing Monegan because Wooten stayed on the job.
