List of 13 subpoenas authorized in Troopergate so far

[rainbow4321]

Also, interesting question/twist to the investigation..someone in the comments section asked if Todd Palin can claim spousal immunity with the emails. The answer was no but then someone raised speculation that he could claim it if anyone tries to ask what private conversations he had w/ Sarah Palin about the emails or other topics related to troopergate.

Special investigator Stephen Branchflower said that Todd Palin is “such a central figure” in the investigation that he should be issued a subpoena.

A total of 13 subpoenas were authorized and also the cell phone records of Frank “the Pressurizer” Bailey whose taped phone call to the Troopers ramped up “Troopergate” to a new level.

UPDATE:

Here are the other individuals who were authorized to receive a subpoena:

Frank Bailey - Director of Boards & Commissions. His call to troopers pressuring about Wooten was taped.

Diane Kiesel - Palin’s Personnel Director

Annette Kreitzer - Administration Commissioner

Nicki Neal - State Personnel & Labor Relations Director

Brad Thompson - State Risk Management Director

Mike Nizich - Former Deputy Chief of Staff, now Chief of Staff as of 8/28/08

Don Bitney - You tell me…. Could this be John Bitney, Palin aide that got sacked for having an affair with Palin’s married friend?

Ivy Frye - Special assistant to Sarah Palin

Kris Perry - Palin confidante who managed her gubernatorial campaign and now manages the Anchorage office

Janice Mason - Palin’s scheduler

Todd Palin - First dude, and private citizen

Randy Ruaro - Former special assistant to the governor, now Deputy Chief of Staff, promoted 9/1/08

Murlene Wilkes - Insurance adjuster handling a worker’s comp claim filed by Trooper Mike Wooten.

***Mike Tibbles, former Palin Chief of Staff was NOT subpoenaed despite the urging of Branchflower to authorize it.

State Senate President Lyda Green now must authorize them before they are issued. Yes, she’s the one that was mocked and derided on a local radio show while Palin giggled.
