Quick Glance: Mississippi Auditor Demands Repayment from Ex-NFL Quarterback Favre for Misused Welfare Funds
- Mississippi’s state auditor has taken legal action to demand the repayment of nearly $730,000 from Brett Favre, allegedly misspent on projects supported by the retired NFL quarterback.
- The money from the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program was intended for a volleyball arena at the University of Southern Mississippi.
- Favre repaid $500,000 in May 2020 and an additional $600,000 in October 2021, but the demand now stands at $729,790 due to interest.
- The auditor said it is unimaginable that Favre would believe he is entitled to receive $1.1 million in taxpayer money interest-free, especially funds meant for the needy.
