The chief state's attorney and the federal prosecutor in Connecticut are also investigating.

About half a dozen special prosecutors are currently investigating cases, not all of which have been made public.

Prosecutors are investigating what appears to be a network of accounts.

For example, the prosecutor may investigate a case only when a national court is unable or unwilling to do so.

And prosecutors are investigating at least half a dozen other cases that could lead to trials.

The prosecutors, it turned out, had been investigating the cartel since 1989.

Prosecutors can direct police for investigation purposes, and sometimes investigate directly.

Nor would any other special prosecutor do so now: they are supposed to investigate crime, not ethics.

The report also said that federal prosecutors were investigating tax irregularities.

A local prosecutor is still investigating the case, and a civil lawsuit has been brought against some of the agents involved.
