Patricia Dunn is due to be in court Thursday afternoon to surrender to authorities and set an arraignment date. CA Attorney General Bill Locker charged her and four others on invasion of privacy and conspiracy charges yesterday. (See SVW: Charged! Dunn, Hunsaker indicted)

The hearing at Santa Clara Superior Court was due to start at 2 pm today.

At a news conference this morning, Lockyer said the investigation was ongoing and that more charges could be filed. All defendants other than Matthew DePante agreed to surrender, the AP reports.

These charges are being brought against the wrong person at the wrong time and for the wrong reasons," Dunn's lawyer, James Brosnahan, said.


Ron DeLia read the AP a statement:


"I am innocent of these charges," DeLia said. "I've been a professional private investigator for more than 30 years. I respect the law and I did not break the law in the HP investigation."
