Former NFL quarterback Brett Favre has yet to pay back $600,000 in money he received from the state of Mississippi for multiple speaking events he never showed up for, authorities said Tuesday. Favre had made an initial payment of $500,000 to the state a few days after the report was released. But a spokesperson for the Mississippi Office of the State Auditor Logan Reeves said Tuesday that Reeves' office hasn't heard from the hall-of-famer since. Developments involving Favre Enterprises were first reported by Mississippi Today, a non-profit news organization that has been closely following the state welfare scandal and fallout. Besides Favre, no other individuals mentioned in the audit have paid any welfare money back to the state or offered to do so, Reeves said.
