曼哈顿陪审团裁定全国步枪协会和韦恩·拉皮埃尔在民事腐败审判中负有责任。 Manhattan jury finds NRA and Wayne LaPierre liable in civil corruption trial.
在纽约市进行了为期七周的民事腐败审判后，曼哈顿陪审团裁定全国步枪协会（NRA）应对财务管理不善负责，其前任首席执行官韦恩·拉皮埃尔（Wayne LaPierre）应对腐败负责。 A Manhattan jury found the National Rifle Association (NRA) liable for financial mismanagement and its former CEO, Wayne LaPierre, liable for corruption after a seven-week long civil corruption trial in New York City. 陪审团裁定，NRA 在 2014 年至 2022 年间未能妥善运营其非营利组织及其资产，拉皮埃尔违反了职责，导致 NRA 损失 540 万美元。 The jury ruled that the NRA failed to properly run its nonprofit and its assets between 2014 and 2022, and that LaPierre violated his duties, costing the NRA $5.4 million. 拉皮埃尔因管理不善和滥用慈善资金而被责令向该组织偿还 430 万美元的损失。 LaPierre was ordered to repay the group $4.3 million in damages for mismanagement and misuse of charitable funds. 该判决结束了纽约总检察长莱蒂蒂亚·詹姆斯提起的民事诉讼的审判，后者指控拉皮埃尔在 2014 年至 2022 年任职期间存在可疑的财务行为。 The verdict concludes a trial in the civil lawsuit brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, who accused LaPierre of questionable financial practices during his tenure from 2014 to 2022.
