Harrisburg, Pa. â After a more than year-long investigation, state ethics investigators have found that Pennsylvaniaâs former chief advocate for crime victims did not trade on her high-profile public position to benefit her personal business ventures.
Jennifer Storm, the stateâs onetime victim advocate, did agree to two technical violations of the state Ethics Act, closing out an inquiry she believes was instigated by political enemies as payback for her outspoken advocacy in prominent cases.
Under that agreement, Storm must amend her annual statements of financial interest and pay a $3,000 fine for failing to disclose airfare, lodging, or income associated with two conferences she attended in 2017 and 2018, as well as rental income, according to a copy of the State Ethics Commissionâs report, which has not yet been publicly released.

EDITORIAL: Pa. s friends and family appointments
York Dispatch Editorial Board
Thumbs down to yet another cozy appointment to a well-paying state vacancy.
State Senate President Pro Tempore Jake Corman, R-Centre, named Frances “Fran” Regan to serve a two-year term on the state’s Gaming Control Board. Regan, a former federal probation officer who has spent the past six years running a private business providing fitness and personal safety classes for women, will earn $145,000 a year in the post.
Nice work if you can get it. And to get it, it helps to have personal ties to state lawmakers.
Regan is the wife of two-term state Sen. Mike Regan, R-Dillsburg. She replaces Merritt Reitzel, who was appointed by Corman’s predecessor, Republican Joe Scarnati, whose chief of staff was Reitzel’s brother-in-law.
