Scandal-plagued politician Vito Lopez is facing a massive fine of $330,000 from a state ethics panel, according to a report.

The former assemblyman, whose lurid groping habits were detailed in a state Joint Commission on Public Ethics report released last month, will be slapped with the largest fine ever leveled by the state legislative body, for sexually harassing his young female staffers, The New York Times reported.

Lopez, who is planning to run for a City Council seat next year, repeatedly groped his employees, and pressured them to dress in provocative outfits and massage him, according to the report.
