A Vermont lawmaker was compelled to apologize publicly after being caught on video pouring water into her colleague’s work bag multiple times across several months.
The bizarre behavior is allegedly a part of a campaign of harassment that one legislator aimed at another who represents the same district in the Green Mountain state, independent outlet Seven Days first reported.
The Republican representative, Mary Morrissey, 67, confessed to dumping water in the bag of the Democratic legislator Jim Carroll, 62. She later apologized during a Vermont state house session on Monday, Boston.com reported.
“I am truly ashamed of my actions,” Morrissey said.
Morrissey did not respond to the Guardian’s request for comment.
That picture of Mary Morrissey looks like it was taken decades ago.
I thought the same thing, it said she was 67
It was. She’s 13 terms in, so I’m guessing it was taken when she was first elected, based on styling and photo quality. She have been in her early 40s, which seems about right.
Yeah - the image quality was what got my attention first. It looks like a scan of an old photo. It’s especially obvious when right next to a more recent image.
