Ethics Probe Finds Palin Defense Fund Illegal

Sarah Palin will return money she collected from a defense fund she set up to fight ethics charges.

An investigator for the Alaska Personnel Board says a legal defense fund set up for Sarah Palin when she was governor was illegal.

Investigator Timothy Petumenos said Thursday the Alaska Fund Trust inappropriately used the word “official” on its website, wrongly implying Palin’s endorsement as governor.

The probe did find that Palin acted in good faith when setting up the fund, and did so on the advice of attorneys.
