In December 2004, numerous front page articles, exclusively informed by asensio.com’s reports, revealed that the Alaska Attorney General was a shareholder in a stock covered by asensio.com, KFx Inc. (later known as Evergreen Energy Inc.) and that the Attorney General actively traded the stock while personally negotiating deals that would allegedly help the company.  The resulting scandal ensnared then Governor Frank Murkowski, and Sarah Palin was later elected to clean up the state government in the wake of the scandal.  KFx / Evergreen went into bankruptcy liquidation in 2012.  Below are excerpts from newspaper articles about the scandal.
