Favre's company, Favre Agencies, was found to have been paid $1.1 million as part of a $94 million state embezzlement scandal from the 2019 fiscal year. An audit of the Mississippi Department of Human Services, released in May 2020, found he was paid the amount for appearances at three events, including a radio show and keynote address. It determined that not only was Favre paid an inordinate amount of money for those appearances, but also that he didn't actually attend those events.
