Nonprofit linked to Casey DeSantis's Hope Florida under investigation
Florida prosecutors have opened an investigation into a nonprofit supporting an initiative led by Casey DeSantis — and championed by her husband, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) — following questions over a $10 million payment it received as part of a state Medicaid settlement.
The Hope Florida Foundation is facing 'an open, on-going investigation,' the office of Leon County State Attorney Jack Campbell confirmed on Tuesday. Lori Abbey, a public records custodian in Campbell's office, declined to comment on the nature of the investigation, which was first reported by the Miami Herald and Tampa Bay Times.
