Viso was given two years of probation in 2019 after being charged in 2014 with possessing a sawed-off shotgun near a school, possessing a gun while committing a crime and multiple drug offenses.

“They raided my house and found a gun in my house,” he explained. “I live near a school.”

There was also the time in 2013 when he was charged with possession of heroin and served seven days in jail.

But those crimes aren’t as gross as the one he was charged with in 2009: smearing fecal matter on the doors of a children’s day care center in East Rutherford.

Viso had a dispute with the day care center, which was next to his business, and he told the Globe that day care employees “harassed my men every day. They had cars ticketed every time my men parked on a side street.”

At some point, he said, he decided to get even by smearing poop on the handles and locks of the child care facility.

holy shit this guy lmao.

The sad part is he's not even the worst member of the GOP. He's honestly pretty average for them.

Compared to those currently running, he sounds like Speaker material.
