| Summary | News 12 reports on a firefighters foundation in New Jersey that ostensibly raised money to help the families of firefighters and police officers who died while on duty. In fact, most of the donations went to out-of-state telemarketers, as the public did not know that the foundation's founder was under investigation in Florida for questionable fund-raising practices. The findings were based on electronic data form the New Jersey Division of Consumer Affairs. |
