George Santos' campaign fundraiser pleaded guilty Tuesday to charges of wire fraud, the latest staffer for New York's embattled Republican congressman facing criminal charges.
USA TODAY and multiple other news outlets have reported that Miele previously identified himself as the chief of staff for former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. A release from the Department of Justice confirming Miele's plea does not name the staffer.
Miele, who was indicted in August, is the second Santos campaign staffer to plead guilty to criminal charges. Former campaign treasurer Nancy Marks admitted to a series of charges last month, including conspiring with a congressional candidate to commit wire fraud.
Santos himself is also facing a slate of charges, though he has maintained innocence, pleading not guilty to 13 felony charges in May.
