The former head of Ohio's public utilities commission and two energy company executives were indicted Monday in connection with a sprawling political corruption scandal, authorities announced.
The West Virginia Public Service Commission issued a misleading press release regarding an audit it ordered of lobbying expenses among the FirstEnergy utilities that serve West Virginia, Mon Power and Potomac Edison. The PSC highlighted testimony from Mon Power and Potomac Edison executive Raymond Valdes that omitted the limited scope of the audit and a concession by the companies that costs related to an Ohio bribery scheme may have had an impact in West Virginia.
