D.C. Attorney General Karl Racine took new aim at Dan Snyder, the owner of the Washington Commanders, alleging in a lawsuit announced Thursday that he and the NFL deceived D.C. residents about the league’s investigation into sexual harassment and misconduct.
Why it matters: Racine said he plans to subpoena Snyder as part of a civil lawsuit that alleges the embattled owner, the franchise, the NFL, and league commissioner Roger Goodell violated a D.C. consumer protection law to benefit financially.
