A Florida county judge on Tuesday granted a restraining order against Rep. Cory Mills (R-Fla.) requested by a woman who accused him of harassing and threatening her after their breakup earlier this year.
Lindsey Langston, a Florida Republican state committeewoman who was crowned Miss United States 2024, filed the emergency petition for injunction in August after separately telling law enforcement in July that Mills had threatened to release explicit photos and videos of her and to harm any other men she may date.
The judge wrote Langston has “reasonable cause to believe she is in imminent danger of becoming the victim of another act of dating violence” — in this case, cyberstalking, as defined by Florida statute — without the injunction.
Until Jan. 1, Mills is prohibited from contacting Langston in any way and is prohibited from going within 500 feet of her residence or place of employment.
The judge found Mills’s communications to Langston “were all intended to cause … substantial emotional distress.”
