1 detector flag(s) on file for this lobbyist
The Nevada Political Establishment auditor cross-references this lobbyist against every Tier A/B/C/D/E1 detector. Each flag below is a research lead, not a published claim — verify against authoritative records before treating as evidence of wrongdoing. Most flags reflect structural patterns the public has a right to see, not necessarily violations.
NRS 218H disclosed expenditures: $0. Detected money flow: $16,055 (campaign-account payments received: $0; unambiguous personal political contributions: $16,055). Gap: $16,055.
