Kane: Decision to file charges in DA's hands

HARRISBURG — Pennsylvania’s attorney general said Tuesday that prosecutors in the Philadelphia suburbs have not told her how soon they will decide whether to charge her in a grand jury leak investigation.

Attorney General Kathleen Kane said her defense lawyer met recently with people from the Montgomery County district attorney’s office, part of what she described as cooperation with the investigation.

She said the decision about charges rests with Montgomery County District Attorney Risa Vetri Ferman.

Kane said that if she is charged, she does not plan to resign. She said she has not been told that a decision about charges is imminent.
