Minnesota Attorney General Lori Swanson filed a lawsuit Friday against a wind-energy company based in Excelsior alleging that it bilked farmers around Minnesota out of hundreds of thousands of dollars apiece utilizing federal stimulus money aimed at helping the country during the recession.
The lawsuit, filed in Hennepin County District Court, alleges that Renewable Energy SD and its owner, Shawn Dooling, 46, of Shorewood, promised state-of-the-art wind turbines that would last up to 25 years and qualify for federal grants under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009.[Star Tribune]
