Wayne LaPierre, the longtime chief executive of the National Rifle Association (NRA), has been embroiled in a civil corruption trial in Manhattan, where he testified regarding his use of NRA funds. LaPierre confirmed under oath that he authorized the spending of the organization's financial resources on various personal expenses, including chartered private jets, family trips, high-end gifts, and yacht trips to the Bahamas. He also admitted to using NRA funds for helicopter rides to avoid traffic when attending NASCAR races. Despite his defense of these expenditures, LaPierre acknowledged that such spending had not been authorized and violated the NRA's policies. His resignation from the NRA is effective Wednesday. The trial, part of Letitia James' case against the NRA, is nearing its conclusion, with LaPierre's testimony scheduled to end soon.
