One of Maryland's Top Attorneys Was Caught Behind Closed Doors Airing Controversial Opinions, Confidential Information

James O'Keefe, the controversial conservative documentarian behind Project Veritas, has a new target in his cross hairs: Attorney General Brian Frosh's office.

In an 11 minute video released Tuesday, Deputy Attorney General Thiruvendran Vignarajah is surreptitiously caught on camera committing an apparent ethical breach, as well as speaking his mind on the Second Amendment. O'Keefe talked to C4 shortly after the video's release.

"These are your taxpayer dollars, and knowing what they actually believe, knowing what they're doing on your dime, doing what they're doing with your time is something that all taxpayers need to know," O'Keefe said. "What we want to know is what is Brian Frosh's reaction to that, and what is Larry Hogan's reaction to that."

For Frosh's part, his spokesman David Nitkin told The Daily Caller the attorney general isn't generally "concerned about private views shared by employees in private conversations."

But that's exactly what O'Keefe was after. In the video's introduction, he said the video was meant to take a look at what the nation's top attorneys might say behind closed doors.
