Political candidate (D) drops out of North Carolina election after facing felony charge [View all]

PITT COUNTY, N.C. (WBTV) - A political candidate in North Carolina dropped out of the race after he was recently arrested.

That candidate -- 37-year-old William “Liam” Schuyler Jr. -- was running to represent District 6 on the Pitt County Board of County Commissioners.

An arrest warrant alleged that Schuyler took a picture of a female without her consent on May 1. He was subsequently charged with felony secret peeping and was arrested on June 30.

Records showed he was released from the Pitt County jail by the next morning after he posted a $10,000 bond.
