DescriptionTown Councilor John C. Mullaney came to the defense of embattled state Rep. Mark Cusack Saturday, calling the 26-year-old legislator "a great kid ... he's young, he made a mistake, and I hope he survives this."

Cusack, a freshman legislator from Braintree, is under investigation by the office of House Speaker Robert DeLeo for an incident that allegedly took place a month ago inside the House chamber after a late-night budget debate session.

Media reports said that Cusack, who was sworn into office less than six months ago, was under investigation for allegedly engaging in inappropriate actions with a female staff member of another lawmaker, when the two were discovered by a court officer in the empty chamber.

Cusack, who has not spoken to the media since the reports surfaced a day ago, could not be reached for comment.
