TL;DR
Former NRA executive Joshua Powell has agreed to pay $100,000 and admitted to misusing charitable funds in a settlement with New York Attorney General Letitia James. This comes just before a multi-million dollar civil corruption trial against the NRA, which has been accused of financial misconduct by senior management. Wayne LaPierre, the NRA's long-serving leader, also stepped down amid these allegations. The NRA had previously attempted to dismiss the lawsuit and filed for bankruptcy, which was rejected by a federal judge.
