One of the Democratic candidates running for Kentucky House to unseat scandal-plagued Rep. Daniel Grossberg was caught on home security video taking one of his opponent’s campaign mailers out of a constituent’s mailbox and putting it in his back pocket.
Asked if it was him in the video posted by the homeowner on Facebook, Max Morley emailed a statement to Kentucky Public Radio on Tuesday confirming his identity and apologizing.
“While campaigning, I exhibited a lack of judgment,” Morley wrote. “This isn’t acceptable, and it’s something I’m deeply sorry for. I apologize to the homeowner.”
Taking another person’s mail out of their mailbox is against federal law. The piece of mail taken by Morley in the video has Grossberg’s name and face on it.
Morley is one of three Democratic candidates running to unseat Grossberg from the Louisville House district in the primary election next week. Grossberg has been the subject of allegations from nine different women over the past two years who accused him of sexual harassment, misconduct or assault, dating back from college up to his time serving in the Kentucky House.
