During a news conference on Monday, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost announced that three more people had been charged in the House Bill 6 scandal.

Yost announced that former FirstEnergy CEO Chuck Jones, former FirstEnergy Senior Vice President Michael Dowling and former chairman of the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio Sam Randazzo have been charged with a"combined 27 counts of felony violations, including engaging in a corrupt activity, all related to their joint enterprise to hijack Ohio’s regulatory structure for the benefit of First Energy Corporation and for themselves.

“This indictment is about more than one piece of legislation,” Yost said. “It is about the hostile capture of a significant portion of Ohio's state government by deception, betrayal and dishonesty. Shout it from the public square to the boardroom, from Wall Street to Broad and High: Those who perversely seek to turn the government to their own private ends will face the destruction of everything they worked for.

According to Deputy Attorney General for Law Enforcement Carol O'Brien, Randazzo had worked with FirstEnergy from at least 2010 until 2019.Yost said he spoke with the group's attorneys, and they were supposed to turn themselves in to the Summit County Jail Monday at 8:30 a.m. but never showed up.

A jury found that Householder and former GOP leader Matt Borges, beyond a reasonable doubt, participated in a racketeering scheme that left four men guilty and another dead by suicide.RELATED: More signs that criminal investigation into Ohio utility bailout continues
