Fur flies on the AG trail
In Topeka on Tuesday the Kansas attorney general race heated as Republican incumbent Bob Stephan and Democrat Bert Cantwell accused each other of lies about their records. Cantwell warned Stephan could face indictment for lying to a jury if he wins. Cantwell alleged Stephan lied about a 1989 Racing Commission decision. The dispute arose during a KTKA-TV joint appearance. The FBI is reportedly examining discrepancies between Stephan and former AG Vern Miller in a breach of contract trial.
