Abuse of Justice System by PA AG Shapiro in Prosecuting Coterra

In June 2020, Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro (Democrat) announced an indictment of Cabot Oil & Gas for allegations of methane migration going back more than a decade, long before he was elected as AG (see PA AG Charges Cabot with Enviro Crimes for Long-Settled Dimock). Shapiro's indictment is a bogus charge, an attempt to turn a long-settled accident into a crime--all for political gain. Shapiro is running for governor this November and bashing the Marcellus industry gives him credibility with the wacko left in his own political party. A few weeks after Shapiro’s shameless and bogus indictment, Cabot (now Coterra Energy) signaled it would fight him tooth and nail in court (see Cabot Signals They Will Fight PA AG Sham Dimock Indictment).
