NORRISTOWN, Pa. (AP) —Former Pennsylvania Attorney General Kathleen Kane will remain in custody until she posts cash bail following a judge sentencing her to jail.
Kane was sentenced Monday to 10 to 23 months in jail in a perjury and obstruction case. The judge said Kane’s ego had driven her to take down enemies and break the law.
Kane was handcuffed in the courtroom before she was led out the side door. Her family declined to comment afterward.
She will remain in custody until she posts $75,000 cash bail, higher than she had previously posted.
No surrender date was given, presuming she does post bail.
The 50-year-old Democrat was convicted in August of two felony charges of perjury and seven misdemeanor charges.
