Jeanine Pirro: Classic Modern Politics -- Why Talk Issues When Scandal Will Do? "Jeanine Pirro's admission she is under federal investigation for planning to secretly record her husband's conversations is another crippling blow to her campaign for state attorney general but may end up rallying some to her defense. A defiant Ms. Pirro said she is determined to stay in the race and will seek a federal investigation into the leak of sealed court documents regarding her discussions with a former New York City Police Commissioner, Bernard Kerik, about taping her husband Albert Pirro to get information about an affair she suspected he was having. "Ladies and gentlemen, that is a felony. That is the only felony that has occurred in this situation - the leaking of sealed court documents," Ms. Pirro told the New York Hispanic Clergy Association in New York City. Ms. Pirro said she would contact Attorney General Gonzalez requesting that a special prosecutor be assigned to find the leak. And she said she would seek to have Assistant U.S. Attorney Elliott Jacobson removed from the case. Mr. Jacobson successfully prosecuted her husband on tax evasion charges seven years ago and Ms. Pirro has called the taping investigation a partisan witch hunt." This is a regional story gone national, as it reflects many aspects of today's political scene. People will know far more about this woman's marital turmoil than they ever will about her positions on key matters relating to the position she is running for.
