New York Jury Finds Wayne LaPierre Liable for Misuse of Funds

By Editor

A Manhattan, New York jury found the NRA and its former leader Wayne LaPierre liable in a civil legal action. In 2020, New York Attorney General Letitia James filed suit against the NRA, LaPierre and other leaders of the organization. The case concluded this week with a jury verdict. After deliberating for a full week, a New York jury Friday found both the NRA and its former CEO/Executive Vice President, Wayne LaPierre, liable for spending NRA donor funds improperly. Mr. LaPierre has been ordered to pay back more than $4.351 million to the NRA. It is not clear yet whether Mr. LaPierre, the NRA, or other parties will seek to overturn the trial result on appeal.
