On July 21st, he was arrested, along with four other local politicos in connection with a $60 million corruption scheme. Larry was arrested at his home for illegally brought in millions of dollars to put him in the Speaker seat, then pass a bailout bill benefiting a specific company, and later protect that bill against a ballot initiative, U.S. Attorney David DeVillers alleged at a news conference Tuesday.

He used this money to bolster his bid for the Speaker’s seat, which he won in January 2019. Also, Generation Now spent millions more of Company A’s money to elect representatives who would vote for Householder and for the bailout that the energy company wanted in the year 2018 and 2019.
U.S. Attorney David DeVillers said nearly $61 million went to “line the defendants’ pockets,” and at least $300,000 was used for legal fees and to settle a lawsuit against Householder, while around $100,000 went to pay for Householder’s home in Florida.
