New Jersey state agencies have filed suit to dissolve a foundation to aid ill World Trade Center rescue workers, alleging the organization’s founders spent $75,000 in donations on personal expenses, reports The Star-Ledger, of Newark.

According to the state’s attorney general and consumer-affairs office, Frederick Parisi and his mother, Jean Street, paid for mortgages, meals, medical appointments, and private-school tuition with money solicited for their 9/11 Rescue Workers Foundation, of Kinnelon. Mr. Parisi, who is currently facing unrelated fraud and theft charges, denied any wrongdoing in connection with the charity.
