The fun never ends. This soap opera seems to be warming up for Act 2.
RALEIGH, N.C. — Federal prosecutors have issued a fresh round of subpoenas for a probe into John Edwards’ campaign finances, an attorney for the two-time presidential candidate said Wednesday.
Lawyer Wade Smith said he has learned from other attorneys and other sources that several new subpoenas were issued. Smith said Edwards didn’t violate any law.
“We want them to look as carefully as they wish,” said Smith, who declined to discuss who got subpoenas and what they were seeking.
The subpoenas indicate signs of life for an investigation that hasn’t publicly shown activity for a year. Edwards mistress Rielle Hunter and former aide Andrew Young made appearances at the federal courthouse in Raleigh a year ago to testify before a grand jury.
Young says he testified about vast sums of money that changed hands to help keep Hunter in hiding.
