Hewlett-Packard's ongoing corporate spying scandal continues to reach new highs (and lows). Last week brought many former execs "taking the fifth" and former Hewlett-Packard Company (NYSE:HPQ) Chairwoman Patty Dunn and current HP CEO Mark Hurd taking the stand on Capitol Hill in some down-to-earth but brazen performances.

Hurd's approach reflected his personality -- a no-nonsense businessman who is an operational geek to the hilt and who takes full responsibility for HP and all incoming data traffic that lands on his virtual desk. What about Patty Dunn, though -- she's already resigned from HP's board. Not so fast.

Dunn and others are set to be indicted on unknown charges by California Attorney General Bill Lockyer. In information learned by the folks over at BusinessWeek, Lockyer is sending out neat little indictment packages to Dunn, former HP business conduct head Kevin Hunsacker and possibly others as well. Update: Dunn chose to surrender at a Silicon Valley courthouse on October 5, and will be arraigned November 17.

These new charges filed by Lockyer are being filed in obvious connection to the ongoing scandal at HP (been in a remote cabin in Montana for the past month?). HP hired investigators, who ended up lying to several parties in order to obtain the personal phone records of HP directors and staff -- including external journalists -- to assist in the tracking of leak sources to various pieces of the press, even plotting to plant spies at the WSJ.) Story at 11? Nope -- story all over the place.
