Starting in the late 1990s, the NRA paid Mr. McKenzie's Associated Television to produce and distribute a true-crime TV series called "Crime Strike," hosted by Mr. LaPierre, the complaint says.

The accountants described invoices submitted by several venders and paid by the N.R.A. as "vague and deceptive." One questionable arrangement involved Associated Television International, a television-production company. From 1998 to 2014, A.T.I. produced a crime-reënactment show called "Crime Strike," which featured the N.R.A.'s executive vice-president and C.E.O., Wayne LaPierre. According to the accountants, the N.R.A. paid A.T.I. "$1.8M for rental of a house" belonging to David McKenzie, A.T.I.'s president. The accountants do not say who rented the home, why the N.R.A. covered the rental at such an enormous cost, nor what, if anything, was "deceptive" about the bill. Michael Donaldson, A.T.I.'s outside counsel, confirmed that the company sent the N.R.A. "seven invoices" concerning the house, which added up to "almost $1.8 million." He went on, "The invoices in question were all for refurbishing episodes after completion of the original episodes of 'Crime Strike,' " adding, "the invoiced amounts include not only the house but also various production-related items such as lights, props, and some crew." Donaldson told me that A.T.I. has "stopped rendering services for the N.R.A. for some time." "In fact," he said, "they are now focussed on working on an independent documentary called 'Inside the N.R.A.' "
