Former Rhode Island Councilman Faces Sexual Abuse Charges After Drug Arrest
Last month, the former councilman was discovered passed out in the driver’s seat of his car after law enforcement was contacted about an unresponsive person. Responding officers claimed that Reilly was “literally choking” when they got to the scene.
Reilly could be heard slurring his words and appeared disoriented in police body cam footage of the incident. After he informed officers that he was a city councilman, they searched his vehicle.
Officers recovered drug paraphernalia, including a crack pipe from Reilly’s car and he was slapped with a drug possession charge.
