8,562 More Pages of Troopergate: Spitzer Aides Stonewalled

August 5, 2008 | 12:32 p.m

Eliot Spitzer authorized two of his aides to submit written testimony rather than speak directly to the Albany County District Attorney during the investigation of Spitzer's use of state police to discredit former Senate Majority Leader Joe Bruno.

That’s according to the first round of news coming from newly released, 8,562-page report from David Soares office. (I haven’t gotten my hands on a copy of the paperwork yet, since it was released in Albany this morning and it's not available electronically. Sigh.)

The fact that Spitzer OK'd his aides stonewalling the investigation isn't really news anymore, but it about a year ago, when another report on the same issue was released. To his credit, Fred Dicker did once try, somewhat unsuccessfully, to confront Spitzer about it.
