LaPierre and the NRA In the Crosshairs of Corruption Allegations.

Yesterday in New York, the corruption trial involving Wayne LaPierre and other high-ranking National Rifle Association associates (NRA) got underway. According to a report in the Washington Post, LaPierre and his associates are accused of misusing funds donated to the non-profit organization. According to the Post, LaPierre used the funds to buy expensive clothes and go on luxury holidays. According to an article in the New York Times, LaPierre was not concerned about any misconduct around him; for instance, a close aide of his allegedly used $100,000 in NRA funds for personal expenses. This trial is only beginning, so I would assume that further revelations will come as it continues.
