Albany County DA to release Spitzer, aides testimony
June 7, 2008
Albany County District Attorney David Soares says he will release the secret testimony of former Governor Eliot Spitzer and his top aides in the dirty tricks probe that consumed much of Spitzer’s abbreviated term.
Soares will release thousands of pages of documents sought by several news organizations after the material is reviewed according to county policy.
The testimony could show how involved Spitzer was in the work of two staffers who collected state police travel logs that showed Senate Republican leader Joe Bruno - Spitzer’s adversary - used state aircraft on days he attended fundraisers.
Soares found no criminal wrongdoing, but concluded Spitzer may have lied about his role.
Spitzer resigned in March amid a prostitution scandal.
