"FirstEnergy bribery scheme sank Lake Erie offshore wind, lawsuit says
The corruption that led to Ohio’s infamous HB 6 also torpedoed what would have been the Great Lakes’ first wind farm, the suit alleges. FirstEnergy is pushing back."
How we roll in #Ohio.
BTW Randazzo later killed himself.
#FirstEnergy admitted in 2021 that it paid $4.3 million to one of Randazzo’s companies shortly before Gov. DeWine nominated him to lead the Public Utilities Commission. According to that federal court filing, the payment was in return for Randazzo taking official action on HB 6, along with “other specific FirstEnergy Corp. legislative and regulatory priorities, as requested and as opportunities arose.”"
