In June, Democrat state senator Joshua Miller was involved in an incident where he deliberately keyed a car with a “Biden Sucks” bumper sticker. He has since been sentenced and expressed remorse for his actions.
Initially, Miller denied any involvement in causing damage to the vehicle and claimed that the owner of the car had followed him and threatened him.
“He was blocking my way, saying I scratched his car, I didn’t scratch his car,” Miller said.
Miller pleaded guilty and has been ordered to pay $2,850 in restitution and an additional $250 to the Rhode Island Community Food Bank.
If he avoids any further criminal activities, the case will be expunged from his record.
Fox News reported:
A Rhode Island state senator who was caught keying a man’s car last month was sentenced to pay restitution after admitting to the charges of vandalism and obstruction of a police officer.
“I am truly sorry for my actions in this matter, and I am disappointed in my behavior and lack of judgment,” Sen. Joshua Miller, a Democrat, told reporters outside 3rd District Court in Warwick on Tuesday, according to The Boston Globe.

Miller, 69, was arrested in June after he vandalized a car with a “Biden Sucks” bumper sticker and later lied to police. He initially denied keying the car and later claimed the victim was “daring” him to once police confronted him with video evidence.
During the arraignment, Miller pled no contest to the two charges and was ordered to pay $2,850 in restitution to the vehicle owner and to donate $250 to the Rhode Island Community Food Bank. If Miller does not commit any more crimes for the next year, the case will be expunged from his record, the Globe reported.
