1/ Quick update for you about Kecia and William Pollock (the latter is a Las Vegas police officer), who paid themselves about $150,000 b/w 2017 and June 2019 to run 4 PACs that raise money in the name of kids with cancer, police officers, firefighters, and people with ♥️ disease.
2/ In case you're curious, the Pollocks kept paying themselves after we published our story about them in September. They brought in just over $54K in the second half of 2019 from the four PACs. publicintegrity.org/politics/chari…
3/What about the causes they champion? At the time of our original story, the 4 PACs spent a sliver on politics and appeared to spend nothing on kids with cancer, police officers etc. In the most recent batch of financial reports they filed, they've added two charitable expenses.
4/ The Pollock-run Children's Leukemia Support Network sent $7,000 to a group called Candlelighters Childhood Cancer of Nevada on Dec. 23. Their Heart Disease Network of America sent $2,000 to the Humane Society of the United States on Dec. 31.
5/ Most of the rest of the millions of dollars the Pollocks' PACs have spent has continued to go to companies run by Richard Zeitlin, a Las Vegas telemarketer. publicintegrity.org/politics/chari…
