Former FirstEnergy execs face bribery charges over $4.3M paid to influence a nuclear bailout.
Closing arguments began in the 2026 trial of former FirstEnergy executives Chuck Jones and Michael Dowling, accused of paying $4.3 million to the late former Public Utilities Commission chair Sam Randazzo to influence a billion-dollar nuclear bailout.
Prosecutors said the payments were a corrupt scheme to manipulate regulation, while defense attorneys claimed Randazzo stole funds meant for a legal settlement and that the executives were unaware of his actions.
The trial, linked to the broader HB 6 scandal, concluded with testimony from dozens of witnesses, neither defendant taking the stand.
The jury could receive the case late Tuesday, March 17.
