A criminal investigation has been launched for the contents that appeared in an undercover video released by James O' Keefe's Project Veritas.

Within the video, Rep. Jim Moran's son, Patrick, tells an undercover reporter how to get around Virginia's tough voter ID laws by forging utility bills and relying on Democratic lawyers.

From an ACPD press release:

The Arlington County Commonwealth Attorney’s Office and the Arlington County Police Department have been made aware of a video released yesterday allegedly depicting Patrick Moran, former Director of Field Operations for the Jim Moran for Congress campaign organization, assisting another to vote illegally.

The Arlington County Police Department has initiated a criminal investigation of this matter.

Police Department spokesman Dustin Sternbeck promised a “thorough investigation” into the “election offense allegations.”

“All parties will be involved in the investigation,” he said, adding that “it would be irresponsible” to not investigate the video. Police will turn over the results of the investigation to the Commonwealth Attorney’s Office, which will then decide whether or not to prosecute.

Arlington GOP Chairman Charles Hokanson, meanwhile, will call for Rep. Moran to resign over the video during an interview scheduled to air on NPR around 4:30 p.m., according to an Arlington County Republican Committee press release.
