Brett Favre was sued after he received $1.1 million in federal welfare funds intended to lift children out of poverty in Mississippi. Favre’s attorneys say he and his organization repaid the funds and state officials are to blame for the misspending.
Favre was sued in May by the state welfare agency after he received $1.1 million in federal welfare funds intended to lift children out of poverty in the poorest state in America.
Favre’s attorneys say that he and his organization, Favre Enterprises LLC, repaid the funds and that Mississippi officials are to blame for the misspending. "It's ludicrous to assert Mr. Favre has been singled out in any way," Logan Reeves, a spokesperson for the state auditor’s office, said in a statement. “As far as our office is concerned, Mr. Favre remains liable for $228,000 in interest for nonperformance of the contract in question.”
