The Summit County Prosecutor’s office announced this week that former PUCO Chairman Sam Randazzo’s company, Sustainability Funding Alliance of Ohio (SFA-Ohio), plead guilty to various felonies that took place between 2010 and 2021. The felonies include engaging in a pattern of corrupt activity, telecommunications fraud, aggravated theft, and money laundering. The SFA-Ohio along with the Industrial Energy Users of Ohio, also previously operated by Randazzo, will pay as much as $2.26 million in penalties and restitution.

Randazzo was previously charged, but those charges were dismissed after he died by suicide. 12/3/2024
