Columbus, OHNew reporting today from Business Insider reveals Bernie Moreno “destroyed” key evidence a judge had ordered him to keep to avoid paying his employees the overtime they deserved. After forcing his employees to sue him to get the pay they were entitled to, Moreno was found liable by a jury for wage theft and was forced by the Court to pay over $400,000 in damages – only then did he settle over a dozen lawsuits before launching his Senate bid.

“Not only did Bernie Moreno spend years cheating his employees out of the overtime pay they had earned, he went so far as to shred key evidence he was required to keep to escape paying his employees for their work. Just as a judge and jury held him accountable for destroying key evidence and withholding his employees’ wages, Ohioans will see that Moreno is a slimy, dishonest conman who is only out for himself,”
said ODP spokesperson Katie Smith.

Only the best for the gop, he seems highly qualified. Dishonest, greedy and self centered.
