Letitia James is a public servant superhero.

Jury finds NRA and Wayne LaPierre liable in civil corruption trial. The case against the NRA was brought on by a lawsuit filed in 2020 by New York Attorney General Letitia James, who accused LaPierre and other current and former executives of flouting state laws and internal policies to enrich themselves.

So, is #WayneLaPierre going to take all the blame?
What about when Russian spy Maria Butina palled around with ALL the #NRA leaders?
What did they know about Russian money going to political campaigns? Was that totally legal?

A judge will ultimately determine the damages that each defendant will owe, along with any other penalties.

#NRA execs found #liable in #corruption case

A #Manhattan #jury found 3 top execs of the National Rifle Association liable in a lengthy #civil #trial that focused on alleged corruption & the misspending of millions of dollars.

Longtime NRA leader #WayneLaPierre, a key architect in the *nonprofit's* hardline #gun rights agenda who stepped down as CEO last month, was central to #NY state's case.

In 2016, the then #Republican controlled #UnitedStates #Senate Intelligence Committee found that the #NRA was a ‘#Russian asset’.

In 2024, the #NYAG #LetitiaJames has forced #WayneLaPierre to confirm under oath that in Russian-style, the NRA was a conspicuously luxurious asset. 👀 👉 https://www.huffpost.com/entry/nra-head-wayne-lapierre-testifies-nra-funds-luxury-travel-clothes_n_65b4142de4b0d407294f1a48

Long-time CEO #WayneLaPierre is out and legal challenges and lawsuits are mounting—but does that mean the NRA is losing its influence over #Americanpolitics?

I never met #WayneLaPierre but he took issue with a 1994 profile I wrote about Mike Reynolds, the grieving Fresno father who promoted the 3 strikes initiative. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-03-07-mn-31132-story.html LaPierre's letter to the editor says much about the #NRA's hand in politics of the time. https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1994-03-23-me-37314-story.html

The #NYAG’s #civil #corruption case against the #NRA, its longtime leader #WayneLaPierre & other defendants centers on alleged mismanagement that cost the *nonprofit* org millions.

The #trial, which is scheduled for opening statements this wk, includes allegations that resources were pilfered from the org for personal use, such as buying expensive clothes & taking luxury trips, & that mismanagement involved #nepotism & #corrupt practices.

Wayne LaPierre had become the NRA's leader
But of a civil trial, he was now a reader
His resignation passing days before
A strong statement this did implore
His leadership of the gun rights group was no longer requited
The way forward for the NRA would now be re-sighted

A video leaked to The New Yorker in 2021 showed LaPierre on an African trophy hunt, attempting to take down an elephant. After nervously felling the elephant, he went on to miss a killing blow three times and was chastised by his guide. #WayneLaPierre #NRA #GOP #NRAGrifters #LaPierreForLifeInPrison
