TOP LEGAL GUNS VS. TROOPERS

The New York Post by FREDRIC U. DICKER, State Editor

April 10, 2008 -- ALBANY - State Attorney General Andrew Cuomo yesterday named former Queens District Attorney Michael Armstrong and former US Attorney Robert Fiske as special advisers in the probe of possible political espionage by the New York State Police.

"They have decades of experience and wisdom investigating corruption at the highest levels of government," said Cuomo, who was tapped by Gov. Paterson last week to conduct a criminal investigation of the State Police. Paterson took his action amid reports that several legislators - and the governor himself - believed they had been the targets of a State Police information-gathering effort and in the wake of new Dirty Tricks Scandal revelations. In that scandal last year, then-Gov. Eliot Spitzer authorized the State Police to gather damaging information on Senate Majority Leader Joseph Bruno (R-Rensselaer).

Paterson fired Acting State Police Superintendent Preston Felton, a Spitzer appointee, within days of taking office last month. Armstrong, chairman of the Commission to Combat Police Corruption, was chief counsel to the Knapp Commission in its probe of tainted NYPD cops in 1970. Fiske, who served as independent counsel in the Whitewater investigation involving President Bill Clinton in 1994, headed New York's Southern District from 1976 to 1980. fredric.dicker@nypost.com
