West Virginia State Senator arrested for second time since August

MARSHALL COUNTY, W.Va. — West Virginia State Senator Michael Maroney was arrested Monday for the second time in just over month.

Maroney, R-Marshall, was arrested in McMechen after officers conducted a traffic stop for numerous traffic infractions. Maroney was arrested for suspicion of Driving Under the Influence and charged with Control of Vehicle Under the Influence, Expired Registration, and No Registration.

Maroney was taken to North Central Regional Jail.

Maroney was also arrested on August 13 and charged with disorderly conduct and indecent exposure after surveillance video showed him performing a sexual act in the gaming room of a Glen Dale gambling parlor on August 4. Maroney was removed from Senate Committee positions following the arrest.

He's a lame duck since he was defeated in the GOP primary.
