Alaska Scandal, More Than Meets The EyeIt looks like there is still more to come in the Alaska political corruption scandal, according to the Juneau Empire, which quoted a federal prosecutor saying there are “multiple, ongoing nonpublic investigations” looking at the ties between Alaska lawmakers and the oil industry.
The paper also notes that a federal judge officially named Ben Stevens, former Alaska Senate President and son of Sen. Ted Stevens (R-AK), as a subject in the investigation. Stevens had been identified as “Senator B” in charging documents; the Anchorage Daily News pieced together the younger Stevens’ involvement in May.
