One of two men accused of taping a private conversation at the campaign headquarters of Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) has started a legal defense fund.
Curtis Morrison, who resigned as spokesman for the super PAC Progress Kentucky shortly after the recording was made, has not spoken to the press since Mother Jones published the McConnell recording. According to Kentucky Democrat Jacob Conway, Morrison recorded the tape from the hallway outside McConnell's office, with the help of Progress Kentucky executive director Shawn Reilly.
