Power struggles and a 'personal piggy bank': what the NRA lawsuit alleges
The 168-page filing from New York’s attorney general alleges of a spendthrift group where dissent was not toleratedwww.theguardian.com
The complaint details several of these private flights, including one which cost $15,000 to get his niece’s husband from a convention for the hunting group the Safari Club in Las Vegas to Nebraska.
LaPierre testified to the attorney general’s office that his niece was working at the convention, so he flew her husband out to help with childcare, but then her husband had to return to Nebraska for work before the convention ended. “t’s really almost very hard to get commercial flights back,” LaPierre testified.
This is not a political action. The complaints came from NRA staff and whistleblowers. This happens a lot where organisations do not have strong controls and officers have a job for life.
I will be quite happy if the entire leadership gets booted out and replaced. LaPierre is a snake, I've said that for years now.
But Ollie North was DEFINITELY the wrong person to try and clean things up.
