On July 18, Mother Jones published an exhaustive article on a number of assault and domestic abuse allegations swirling around Ohio Republican Rep. Max Miller.
The report was based on more than 2,000 pages of court filings and police records, including a 48-page investigatory file relating to possible child abuse after their toddler experienced a broken collarbone. This file included numerous troubling allegations from Emily Moreno—Miller’s ex-wife and the daughter of US Sen. Bernie Moreno—who accused Miller of throwing scalding water at her, shoving her against a wall during a heated custody exchange, and holding a gun to her head while she was trying to change their daughter’s diaper. Other public records accused Miller of drug abuse and threatening behavior.
Today, we’re publishing a video that includes select clips from seven hours of police interviews and bodycam footage related to the child abuse probe. This adds to interview footage CNN published in June relating to the same investigation.
Police ultimately concluded that a finding of child abuse was “unsubstantiated.” That means there was not sufficient evidence to prove abuse or neglect occurred.
Nonetheless, the clips we are publishing show a child protection specialist indicating the collarbone injury was accompanied by a bruise resembling a handprint. Emily Moreno also tells police that their daughter expressed fear of her father.
This week, Sen. Moreno weighed in on the personal drama roiling his family, calling it the “seventh circle of hell.”
“My daughter lives in constant fear of this man,” Sen. Moreno continued.

Editors note: This is the same as our recent video Chilling: I Simulated Planning a Mass Shooting with ChatGPT, however we reformatted it to be viewed horizontally.
On April 14, journalist Mark Follman created a free account on ChatGPT and asked for some help. It resisted him at first, but after some pushing the responses turned shocking. OpenAI’s chatbot soon gave him extensive advice on weapons and tactics as he simulated planning a mass shooting.
ChatGPT delivered these responses with lots of encouragement—and it kept going even after Mark talked of emulating the Uvalde mass shooter’s choice of weapon, asked about livestreaming with a body camera and using hollow-point bullets, and focused on defending against return gunfire from police.
Eventually, its safeguards appeared to kick back in and it stopped cooperating. But by then ChatGPT had showered him with affirmation and tactical ideas—as this new video reveals in disturbing detail.
Mark never stated directly to the chatbot during this simulation that he planned to commit murder—many mass shooters, after all, take steps to conceal their intent. But he came awfully close. Amid mounting evidence that troubled people are using ChatGPT and other AI chatbots to plan violence, the purpose was to test how easy or difficult that might be, especially as OpenAI and other companies make claims about ongoing safety improvements. The results were chilling.
