WASHINGTON, May 25 (UPI) -- An FBI investigation of allegations of kickbacks and ethical violations by the late U.S. Rep. John Murtha of Pennsylvania remains open, agency documents show.
Murtha, a Democrat who died in February at 77, steadfastly denied any wrongdoing. Hundreds of pages released by the Federal Bureau of Investigation in response to several Freedom of Information Act requests indicate the Murtha investigation is still active, The Hill, a Washington publication, said. The documents were posted on the FBI's official Web site.
