With no Green Bay Packers game on the horizon for this weekend, as the team is on a bye, we’re focusing this week’s edition of Intercepted on the Mississippi welfare fraud case that involves former Packers quarterback Brett Favre. While Favre hasn’t been charged in the criminal case, at least as of yet, he has been named in the civil case.
To break down where those two cases stand, Mississippi Today’s Anna Wolfe shared her time with Acme Packing Company to explain how federal welfare funds were used to pay for Favre’s dream of a new Southern Mississippi volleyball arena and where the story might go from here.
