NEW YORK (Reuters) -Wayne LaPierre, the longtime chief of the National Rifle Association, defended himself at a corruption trial on Monday, saying New York's attorney general should have given the gun rights group a pat on the back for implementing reforms. Under questioning by NRA lawyer Sarah Rogers, LaPierre said the group underwent a "course correction" to improve accounting practices in 2018, two years before Attorney General Letitia James sued it for violating state law governing nonprofits. "I honestly felt the attorney general should be enthusiastic about the work we had done, been patting us on the back for the work we had done," said LaPierre, who resigned suddenly as NRA chief executive three days before the trial began on Jan. 8.
