By BRIAN SKOLOFF
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. (AP) - Former U.S. Rep. Mark Foley isn't expected to face charges after a lengthy investigation into his lurid messages to underage congressional pages, two federal law enforcement officials told The Associated Press on Thursday.
The officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case, said the results of a state investigation would be announced Friday.
They said neither state nor federal charges were expected, although an FBI investigation has not been closed yet.
