Florida attorney general questions release of Limbaugh letters

The state Attorney General's office on Wednesday questioned the motives of local prosecutors who released letters from Rush Limbaugh's attorney, accusing them of hiding facts in the case.
When prosecutors released the letters last week, they cited support from the Attorney General's office and the Florida Bar. But both groups now have contradicted the prosecutors.
The letters detail discussions between prosecutors and Limbaugh's attorney over whether the conservative radio commentator would plead guilty to doctor shopping for prescription painkillers.
Limbaugh has not been arrested and no charges have been filed in the months-long investigation.
