JUST IN: Wayne LaPierre Resigns as NRA Leader Days Before Trial Brought By NY AG Letitia James
On Friday Wayne LaPierre announced he will be resigning as the National Rifle Association’s (NRA) leader just days before his civil trial brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James begins.
“The announcement comes as LaPierre is set to face trial in the corruption case brought by Democratic New York Attorney General Letitia James. James – who before being elected the state’s AG, vowed to take on the NRA and slammed the group as a “terrorist organization” – brought forth a lawsuit in 2020 accusing NRA leadership of violating state and federal laws to divert millions of dollars to their own pockets.” Fox News reported.
The resignation will take effect on January 31.
