Convicted former Pennsylvania AG Kathleen Kane to host new ‘Through the HurriKane’ podcast

Next week, convicted former Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen G. Kane will release the podcast Through the HurriKane on Spotify, which she teased on Instagram and explores resilience and healing.
The leak to the Philadelphia Daily News in June 2014 led to Kane's 2015 charges and her Aug. 15, 2016 conviction for leaking grand jury documents tied to J. Whyatt Mondesire's 2009 investigation.
Kane began serving her sentence in late 2018 at Montgomery County Correctional Facility and was released in 2019 after serving eight months.
She resigned the day after her conviction and did not testify at her later Montgomery County trial, while the state Superior Court upheld her conviction and prosecutors said her tenure involved personal vendettas that wore down morale, prompting several officials to resign.
Given she was the first woman and first Democrat elected state attorney general, prosecutors said Kane leaked documents to retaliate against Frank Fina and Marc Costanzo, former state prosecutors.
