DC Filing Suit Against Commanders, Dan Snyder, NFL and Roger Goodell Over Misconduct Probe
The attorney general's office reviewed thousands of internal documents and emails in its investigation, Racine said.
The team retained D.C. lawyer Beth Wilkinson's firm to launch an independent investigation into those allegations, which the league then took oversight of. Racine's office launched his investigation into the team around the time the committee referred its case, which initially centered on workplace culture issues, to the Federal Trade Commission for potential financial improprieties.
Also in the statement, the team attempted to pivot the issue to violent crime in Washington, citing the August shooting of rookie running back Brian Robinson Jr. The U.S. House Oversight Committee in April sent a letter to the FTC saying the team engaged in potentially unlawful financial conduct and that there was evidence of deceptive business practice over the span of more than a decade, including withholding ticket revenue from visiting teams and refundable deposits from fans.
