Kiah Morris harasser arrested on illegal gun magazine charge


Max Misch, who came to statewide notoriety for racial harassment of former state representative Kiah Morris, has been arrested on charges of purchasing and possessing high-capacity gun magazines that were outlawed last year.

Vermont State Police announced the arrest of the 36-year-old Bennington resident in a press release Wednesday night.

“On January 25, 2019 the Vermont State Police began investigating an allegation that Max Misch had purchased large capacity ammunition feeding devices in violation of Title 13 v.s.a. 4021,” the statement said.

That law — part of a package of gun control bills signed by Gov. Phil Scott last year — says that people shall not manufacture, possess, transfer, offer for sale, purchase, receive or import large capacity ammunition feeding devices. People who owned magazines before the law took effect can legally keep them, but cannot sell or otherwise transfer the devices. The penalty for offenders is up to one year in prison, a fine of $500, or both.

The police statement says a search warrant was executed on Misch’s home on Wednesday.
