Aril. A the state House speaker urged gov Evan Mech am to do some very serious soul searching while lawmakers consider impeaching the governor following a special counsel s report on his allegedly break ing. Special counsel William French speaking to a hushed House chamber Friday said Mecham deliberately concealed a $350,000 Campaign loan used Public funds for personal gain and obstructed an investigation into a men aide s alleged threats against a grand jury witness. Mecham who also faces criminal charges Over the Campaign loan said in a Telephone interview later Friday that he can prove he is innocent of All charges. Mecham said Money described As pub Lic by French actually had remained in private hands Ever since it was raised by donations to help defray inaugural costs.

Mecham said his failure to disclose the Campaign loan was inadvertent. House speaker Joe Lane a Republican said lawmakers could Vole on impeachment within 3 week. An impeach ment Resolution would require a majority Vole of the House. A trial then would be held in the Senate where conviction would require approval by 20 of the 30 senators. I would also ask the governor in tight of the findings in the report to do some very serious soul searching Lane said in a statement. Now we roust All do what is Best for  he refused to elaborate. French did nol specifically recommend whether lawmakers should impeach Mecham who also faces a possible recall election. The former judge and prosecutor said the evidence demonstrated perjury filing false financial disclosure statements and a course of conduct to intentionally cover up those acts in relation to the 1350,000 loan from Tempe Developer Harry Wolfson. French said a separate Bank account was created to receive the loan so that an examination of the regular Campaign Bank account would not turn up the Money. In some circles it s called Laun Dering French said. French also said the governor made unlawful use of an inaugural fund by borrowing $80,000 from it for his car Dealership. Mecham attorney Murray Miller said French was Irving to Stampede the Republican controlled House into impeachment by using inflammatory phrases such As smoking gun andr Clear and disturbing evidence Mecham did not list the Wolfson loan on his personal or Campaign finance documents but insisted it was an honest mistake by his toothed Willard his Campaign finance director the governor amended his financial disclosure statements in november to add the loan after Media account of it Mecham was charged Jan. S by a stale grand jury with Sis felony counts of fraud penury and filing false documents and Willard Mecham was charged with three similar counts Mecham 61, won the governorship in i9b6 on his fifth attempt and immediately ignited controversy by cancelling a Martin Luther King Holiday for stale employees.
