Brett Favre missed deadline for $228,000 interest payment to Mississippi in welfare case

Hall of Famer Brett Favre missed a deadline on Tuesday to repay the interest he owes the state of Mississippi after he accepted improper welfare funds in 2020, according to The Associated Press.

Mississippi state auditor Shad White addressed the missed payment on Twitter on Tuesday, but did not call out Favre by name. White said that he has been in contact with the state attorney general’s office and an attorney.

They are in charge of enforcing the demands. My team has now forwarded the unpaid demands to the AG’s office.
