Former Republican congressional candidate Christine Quinn is suing the local Community Patriots group and two of its members, saying they failed to repay her for expenses of traveling to Washington for the Jan. 6 Trump rally which preceded the invasion of the Capitol.
Quinn, a Trump backer who ran against Rep. Kathy Castor, D-Tampa, in 2016 and 2020, has filed a claim for $3,709.97, naming the Patriots organization, its leader Jeff Hawks and backer Scott Courtney as defendants.
