Federal Officials Serve Subpoenas
WEST VIRGINIA....
The office of Governor Joe Manchin has confirmed that the state of West Virginia was served this week with two federal subpoenas. Neither subpoena was directed to Governor Manchin or the Governor’s office, and no individual in the Governor’s office was served with a subpoena. Manchin spokesman Melvin Smith confirmed that federal investigators had contacted the office, saying they had requested documents and information. State officials were asked not to publicly discuss any details of the investigation. They were told such disclosure could endanger or impede the investigation. Governor Manchin has directed state officials to fully cooperate and comply expeditiously.
