Rep. Vance McAllister, the married Republican congressman who was caught on tape kissing his part-time scheduler inside his Monroe, La., district office, says he won t seek an FBI investigation into the source of the leaked security footage. After reports surfaced that McAllister planned to request a probe into how the surveillance video was accessed, his office on Wednesday released the following statement:  Congressman McAllister s office will not pursue an FBI investigation at this time regarding the distribution of a video filmed in leased federal office space.
