Man Charged In Katie Miller Cyberstalking

Federal prosecutors in Massachusetts charged John Anthony Proia III, a 41-year-old Waltham man, with cyberstalking for allegedly harassing Katie Miller. Miller is a conservative podcaster and former Trump administration official married to White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller. The investigation stirred turmoil inside the FBI’s Washington Field Office, including action against two senior counterterrorism supervisors over concerns about the probe. Prosecutors accuse Proia of contacting Miller more than 40 times over about two months, often late at night from changing numbers. They also say he messaged her parents with vulgar threats, while using internet calling tools to hide himself. Miller thanked Justice Department leaders and the FBI. Proia will face initial court proceedings; his lawyer did not immediately comment.
