COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is defending his top advisor after a criminal indictment alleges she knew about millions going to a man about to be appointed to power by the governor. She helped vet the former chair of the Public Utilities Commission, Sam Randazzo, after her family had already received a $10,000 loan from him.We don’t just report the initial story—we follow through to its conclusion.
The executives allegedly paid Randazzo $4.3 million in bribes before DeWine appointed him as chair of the leader of the watchdog of utilities. "Oh, look, if I knew what I know now, if I knew that — I certainly would not have appointed Sam Randazzo to that position," the governor responded. "It would be highly unusual for the governor to be made aware of such a payment in the vetting of a cabinet member, especially when it was well known that Randazzo was a paid consultant for FirstEnergy," Tierney said.
