Former Pennsylvania attorney general and Scranton native Kathleen Kane is set to be released from prison on Wednesday.

Kane served about eight months of a 10- to 23-month sentence.

She's been locked up in Montgomery County since November after a jury found her guilty of perjury and leaking private information to the media.

Kane was forced to step down as attorney general three years ago.

Four months into her incarceration, the Pennsylvania Bar Association stripped her of her law license. Under state law, Kane will not be able to apply for reinstatement of her law license until April 2024.
