NEED ANOTHER LITTLE SCANDAL TO CHEW ON OVER THE WEEKEND?

I just received this curious little news release from the Department of Workforce Solutions. It's apparently in response to rumors swirling around the Roundhouse this week that former Secretary of of State Rebecca Vigil-Giron, who now works for the agency formerly known as the Labor Department, had been indicted.

Here's a background story on Vigil-Giron's situation: CLICK HERE

Here's the news release:

Statement from NMDWS Regarding Rebecca Vigil-Giron

There has been no personnel action taken against Ms. Vigil-Giron.

Ms. Vigil-Giron informed Secretary Betty Sparrow Doris of a pending Attorney General investigation involving matters not related to her work at the NM Department of Workforce Solutions. We are not aware of any allegations of wrongdoing.

Because this is an ongoing investigation, and because the Attorney General has not shared details of the investigation, we are not in a position to comment further

.
So it's really a non-news release. All it does really is confirm there is and investigation.

A spokesman for the AG's office said this week there has been no indictment or other action.

UPDATE: Here's a link to the Associated Press story.
