Ex-NFL star Brett Favre was questioned by the agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigations for his alleged involvement in a Mississippi welfare fraud case that saw the millionaire receive $1.1m for motivational speeches that he never gave, according to NBC News.
Bud Holmes, the attorney representing the former Green Bay Packers quarterback, confirmed to NBC that his client answered questions from federal agents and maintained that his client had done nothing wrong, repeating the professional football player’s previous claims that he had no idea the money he received was coming from a fund designed for needy families.
