pdq, not all of the ethics suits were found to be frivolous. For instance, she agreed to reimburse the state for almost $10,000 for her children's travel.

I don't know how much debt she has but the greater share of the costs that the State has incurred in investigating the ethics complaints resulted from her own lawsuit against herself in order to have the board that she herself appointed investigate the ethics; this was after the State had found her at fault. Her own board cleared her.
