Babylon Candidate Stands Naked By Front Door, Van Driver Says: Reports

A behavior specialist said that the candidate has exposed himself at least 10 times as she drives past his house, reports say.

BABYLON VILLAGE, NY — A Babylon Town Council candidate is accused of exposing himself from his front door on several occasions in front of a woman and a van with adults with disabilities, multiple outlets reported.

Victoria Lombardi, a behavior specialist who drives the van, told News 12 and the New York Post that for the past two months on her morning route, she has passed Kevin Sabella Sr., a candidate for Babylon Town Council, standing by his front door — without any clothes on.

In the past two months, Lombardi said it happened around 10 times between 8:20 a.m. and 8:30 a.m., she told the outlets.

On May 25, Lombardi recorded video on her phone of the naked pol, the New York Post reported. In an 8-second recording she took while driving, the GOP candidate was captured standing stark naked behind the clear front door of his home. She posted an account of the incident to Facebook and said she filed a report with Suffolk County police.

“I hope he gets the help that he needs," said Town Supervisor Rich Schaffer in a statement to Patch. "This is someone who should be focusing on his serious personal issues as opposed to running for Town Board.”
