An environmental regulator in North Carolina state government has traveled to the federal courthouse where prosecutors are seeking information about former Gov. Mike Easley.
Assistant Secretary for Environment Robin Smith left the Raleigh courthouse Thursday morning but declined to say whether she had testified before a grand jury.
The Department of Environment and Natural Resources said Smith and five other current or retired agency employees received subpoenas directing them to appear this week.
The subpoenas also sought documents related to coastal developments by a pair of brothers with ties to Easley and if payoffs were made to state regulators. The agency isn't aware of wrongdoing by the department.
Easley's former campaign manager testified Wednesday before the grand jury.

Why is it that 80-90% of the people who run for office that are democrats have a problem obeying the rules and regulations! Just another Obama supporter that got caught in the spotlight. You connect the dots because it all makes sense to me and most other Americans with half a brain that incidents like this is the lesser of two evils. The greater one is in the white house.
