Edwards’ Former Mistress Granted Immunity : Personal Liberty Alerts

Edwards’ Former Mistress Granted Immunity : Personal Liberty Alerts: GREENSBORO, N.C. (UPI) — Federal prosecutors Thursday granted immunity to the former mistress of former U.S. Sen. John Edwards, D-N.C., in his trial on campaign finance law violations.

Rielle Hunter cannot face criminal charges for anything she says during Edwards’ trial, WRAL, Raleigh, reported.

Edwards, the 2004 Democratic Vice Presidential nominee, faces six counts of criminal violations of campaign finance law for using almost $1 million in contributions from two donors to hide Hunter, who was pregnant with his child during his 2008 campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination. He has pleaded not guilty.
