DescriptionMILWAUKEE- New information on the John Doe investigation involving former staffers of Governor Walker -- when he was county executive.

Democrats argue the documents that show who hired Kelly Rindfleisch could be the key to the John Doe investigation. The alleged documents show then-Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker signed off on the hire of two staffers now under investigation -- Tim Russell, who was charged with embezzlement and Kelly Rindfleisch -- the former deputy chief of staff charged with doing political work on county time.

"We believe that this is the smoking gun that shows that Scott Walker was right involved in these crimes that were committed in his office," said Democratic Party spokesman Graeme Zielinski to TODAY'S TMJ4. "This is a very small office."

Questions arose during the investigation, as to who actually hired Rindfleisch.
