Republican Rep. Max Miller (R-OH) remains under a House Ethics Committee investigation following domestic abuse allegations made by his ex-wife, Emily Moreno. Moreno filed a restraining order in Cuyahoga County, alleging Miller threw scalding water at her, pointed a gun at her head, harassed her attorney, and caused physical injuries to their two-year-old daughter. While the Ohio Department of Children and Family Services found no evidence of child abuse and no criminal charges have been filed, Miller continues to deny the claims and has filed a defamation suit, characterizing some incidents as ‘horseplay.’ ‘horseplay’ or ‘politically motivated.’ Legal complications have intensified as Moreno filed a civil rights lawsuit against Miller and his attorney, Aaron Minc, alleging they recklessly published a nude photograph of their daughter online via a Dropbox link shared on X. Minc has accepted sole responsibility, calling it an unintentional redaction error. Additionally, during a Cuyahoga County family court hearing, Miller issued a veiled threat toward his former father-in-law, Senator Bernie Moreno, suggesting he holds private information regarding the senator. New allegations have emerged in September 2026, with Moreno’s attorneys raising concerns that Miller may have used Meta smart glasses to secretly record them during a court proceeding, an accusation Miller denies. Political fallout continues as Miller pursues reelection. House Speaker Mike Johnson has expressed support for Miller, describing him as a ‘great member of Congress’ and noting that while Miller has ‘issues in his personal life he’s working through,’ the Ethics Committee investigation must proceed through due process. The House Ethics Committee investigation, which focuses on allegations of domestic violence, abuse, and potential illegal drug use, is not expected to produce a final report before the November elections due to a 60-day reelection blackout period beginning September 4.
