Former WWE Diva Dawn Marie is being investigated for embezzling funds she collected over the last three years for the Wrestlers Rescue project. The organization was setup by Marie in her home state of New Jersey on September 14, 2008 and was intended to raise money to support the health care of retired professional wrestlers.
However, no one has received any money from the organization but Dawn Marie where she has allegedly used the funds to fly herself to autograph signings and conventions where she makes a profit. Attorneys for Marie have confirmed Wrestlers Rescue is not a registered charity.
Furthermore, there were funds collected to purchase a speaking device for "Dr. Death" Steve Williams but the device was not delivered to Williams before he died.
The organization website remains online at this link: http://dawnmarieonl.powweb.com/WrestlersRescue/index.htm.
