As you know, despite earlier promises to the contrary, Sarah Palin is now refusing to cooperate with the trooper-gate investigation. Her lawyer now says she will refuse to be deposed unless the head of the current investigation relinquishes control and hands the investigation over to the state Personnel Board made up of three of Gov. Palin’s appointees. We’ve been trying to see whether Palin’s argument has any merit under Alaska law. And the former Alaska Attorney General we just spoke to told us, in essence, that it’s a bunch of bunk.
Not surprising, since the whole gambit is an effort to push any depositions out past the election.
