In open article I read about this, the lawyer is actually technically correct. As the law is written in Alaska, they would have to prove financial gain for an e impropriety; she technically did nothing illegal. Now, in the general scheme of things, were her actions completely unethical? Of course. but since they're going by the simple letter of the law, then no, she did nothing illegal. Fortunately, that's not a sticky detail that will be remember of talked of; most discussions will focus simply on her basically acting unethically, and using her power for a personal agenda. Unless, of course, the discussion is on FOX News. Then the discussion will be about how that pinko faggot nigger commie terrorist Muslim son-of-a-bitch Obama caused all this.
