Alaska trooper not contacted by investigator

The Alaska state trooper at the heart of a legislative investigation into whether Gov. Sarah Palin abused her power says he has not been contacted by the man overseeing the inquiry.

But nearly six months into the investigation, Wooten told The Associated Press on Tuesday that neither the Legislature’s investigator nor Palin’s attorney have contacted him.

If contacted, Wooten says he will cooperate. But he says he has no plans to contact the Legislature’s investigator.
