Discovery order issued to Healey in ExxonMobil probe

DALLAS — A federal judge in Texas issued a discovery order Thursday to Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey, a move that means the Bay State's top prosecutor is now forced to fork over copies of correspondence and other internal records related to her bid to prove ExxonMobil knew about climate change science as far back as 1976.
In issuing his order, U.S. District Court Judge Ed Kinkeade wrote that "Attorney General Healey's actions leading up to the issuance of the CID (criminal investigation demand) causes the Court concern and presents the Court with the question of whether Attorney General Healey issued the CID with bias or prejudgment about what the investigation of Exxon would discover."
