Three men who have worked as Republican political operatives agreed to pay more than $50,000 in restitution and penalties in Ohio for their roles in operating a phony charity that collected cash purportedly to help victims of the East Palestine train derailment.
they collected $149k, donated $10k to the food back and kept the rest. now the DA is making them pay $50k. which leaves $89k net profit? seems like a lucrative business model.
Bc they’re all Repiblicans? How much gract did the DA get?
Three scuzzbuckets get a slap on the wrist, with zero criminal accountability, and will surely, definitely, continue to offend? This is news?
Surely this is in addition to paying back or donating the $139,000 in donations they kept for themselves, right?
…right?
I give you the party of personal responsibility./s
How are those folks doing? Haven’t heard anything since the incident. Any surging cases of disease?
We really won’t know if there’s long term health effects for decades.

The state government of Ohio publishes update on the situation. But I’d have to agree with the other replier, we likely won’t know the true human cost for decades. People are still negatively impacted by the Chernobyl explosion.
