MAYOR PLEADS GUILTY TO SEXUAL ABUSE
Alfred Muller, a 58-year-old suburban mayor, pleaded guilty Friday to sexually abusing a 14-year-old boy in Washington’s National Cathedral. Muller is a longtime mayor of Friendship Heights, Maryland and a volunteer usher at the cathedral for 35 years. He encountered the teen in a bathroom on January 28th and reached over and touched him as they stood at adjacent urinals. The boy identified Muller from a photo in People Magazine, which carried a story about Friendship Heights’ smoking ban. The boy was at the cathedral on a field trip. According
