Tom Trento
investigated
The Florida Attorney General's Office investigated Tom Trento and his organizations, including the Florida Security Council (a predecessor to The United West) and The United West, for potential violations of state nonprofit laws and other laws related to nonprofit activities, fraud, financial mismanagement, improper use of charitable funds, and hate speech. These investigations were prompted by complaints from civil rights groups and Muslim organizations, did not result in formal charges, but led to increased scrutiny of the organization's operations.
