NRA Fraud Case Will Hurt But Won’t Kill Gun-Rights Behemoth

“James Tierney, a lecturer at Harvard Law School who has taught courses on the role of state attorneys general, said the NRA’s suit is ‘foolish’ and that the New York case is an ‘appropriate’ response to the NRA’s refusal to cooperate.

’This case has been developed by highly sophisticated people who’ve been in the business of charities regulation since long before Tish James,’ said Tierney, who served as attorney general of Maine for a decade until 1990. ‘These people have gone through thousands of pages of documents and they’re accountants — they’ve tracked all the numbers over the years.’”
