Kerik expected to be indicted on Friday.

(New York- WABC, November 7, 2007) - Eyewitness News has learned former Police Commissioner Bernard Kerik expects to be indicted Friday in a federal tax fraud case sure to cause headaches for Presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani.

A grand jury that has been hearing evidence in the case for several months was expected to vote Thursday on whether to indict Kerik, a federal law enforcement official said Wednesday.

Sources say Kerik's indictment is expected to be unsealed Friday, followed by his arraignment in federal court in White Plains.

Kerik has told close friends and members of his legal team that he expects the indictment on charges, which are related to the filing of his 2000 federal tax return, to come before the statute of limitations expires on November 15.

Kerik does his best in the article to distance himself from his former good buddy Rudy.

At least that is what the New York Times wrote this morning. By the way, their Kerik story ran on page C17--a very unusual place to bury the "New York News," a several-page section that almost invariably runs in the "A" section (at least in the national print version of the paper).
