Palin's Claim Ex Relative's Files Are Public Documents Untrue
Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has denied claims that she and several of her
senior staffers illegally accessed the personnel file of her
ex-brother-in-law, Trooper Mike Wooten, and disseminated confidential
information about the law enforcement official to his superiors.
Palin,
Sen. John McCain’s running mate, her private attorney Thomas Van Flein,
and McCain campaign officials, said the confidential medical and
employment records became part of the public record during divorce
proceedings between Wooten and Palin’s sister, Molly McCann.
The investigation... centers on claims that the governor’s office peeked at Wooten’s personnel records illegally.
In defending Palin, the McCain campaign and Palin's attorney have said
Wooten’s employment and medical files are public documents. But that
assertion is untrue.
