Connecticut’s attorney general has queried the chairman of the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund, a Virginia charity, over “serious red flags” in the group’s finances, according to The Hartford Courant.
The organization, which helps pay the legal fees of police officers facing charges, has collected millions from donors nationwide but has granted comparatively small amounts to clients, while giving hundred of thousands of dollars to conservative groups to which the charity’s executives have ties.
The Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund’s chairman did not respond to the newspaper’s request for comment.
