The Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General has agreed to settle a case brought by two agents who had alleged that former AG Kathleen Kane retaliated against them and tried to damage their reputations after they testified before a grand jury about an OAG investigation Kane shut down.

The OAG agreed to pay $75,000 to Michael Carlson, who is still an agent for the office, and Michael Cranga, a former OAG agent. A spokesman for the OAG confirmed the settlement, but declined to comment further on the case. The parties filed a stipulation of dismissal Nov. 8 in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania.
