A former assistant to ousted House Minority Whip Mike Veon confirmed Wednesday that she will appear before a state grand jury investigating House Democrats.

Esther Reever, who served as an administrative assistant to Veon, told the Tribune-Review she received a subpoena to testify this week before the grand jury in Harrisburg. She told a reporter that she couldn’t talk about it.

Reever is one of three House Democratic staffers ordered to testify this week before the grand jury, which is investigating whether legislative staffers received bonuses from taxpayers for doing campaign work.

One of the three, another former Veon staffer, would neither confirm nor deny that she was called to testify. She said the matter was “personal.”Source Link
