Samuel Randazzo, the former chairman of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio, has pleaded not guilty to charges related to bribery and embezzlement. He allegedly received over $4.3 million from FirstEnergy in exchange for favorable actions through PUCO proceedings. Randazzo is implicated in the FirstEnergy bribery and bailout scandal, which has led to the conviction of former Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder. If convicted, Randazzo faces up to 20 years in prison. Ohio Governor Mike DeWine and Lt. Governor Jon Husted have been subpoenaed in a civil suit related to the scandal, although they are not accused of any wrongdoing.
