Breaking News: Ted Stevens Indicted on False-Statement Charges

By Ashby Jones

ADVERTISEMENTS

stevensThis just in: Alaska Sen. Ted Stevens, the longest-serving Republican senator, has been indicted on seven counts of making false statements. Stevens, 86 years old, has been dogged by a federal investigation into whether he pushed for fishing legislation that also benefited his son, an Alaska lobbyist. Authorities have also scrutinized his ties to a corrupt oil contractor who paid employees to renovate the senator’s home. Click here for the AP story.

Messages left Tuesday at both Sen. Stevens’s Senate office in Washington and his campaign office in Anchorage were not immediately returned.

A DOJ press conference is slated to begin shortly. We’ll update the post when more information becomes available.
