"NRA Leader Wayne LaPierre Liable for $4.3 Million in Corruption Case"
TL;DR
A jury found the National Rifle Association (NRA) liable for mismanaging charitable funds and determined that longtime leader Wayne LaPierre should repay $4.3 million for misspending. The New York Attorney General's Office filed a lawsuit in 2020 alleging violations of non-profit laws, tax fraud, and personal use of millions. The jury also found the NRA's former CFO should repay $2 million. The verdict marks a major blow to the NRA, which has faced infighting and declining membership. Despite the ruling, the NRA maintains it was victimized by former vendors and insiders.
