Kane Pulls Sister Act In Court Appearance

Attorney General Kathleen Kane showed up to her first court appearance following her recent indictment- but at first, reporters were fooled over whether it was really Kathleen Kane.

Kane, according to a report in PoliticsPA, sent her twin sister, Ellen Granahan Goffer, to enter the courthouse and distract reporters, while the actual Kane slipped in behind her along with lawyers and bodyguards.

The hearing was held in Norrristown. Kane is charged with leaking confidential information and lying about having done so. The Inquirer account stated that the hearing was to determine whether there was enough evidence to go forward with a trial.
