Story summary

John Anthony Proia III, a 41-year-old resident of Waltham, Massachusetts, was arrested and charged on Thursday for allegedly cyberstalking Katie Miller, wife of White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller. The Justice Department confirmed that the victim is a "former political advisor and prominent figure in the Republican Party" married to a high-level federal government employee.

Proia used multiple phone numbers to contact Katie Miller at least 40 times between August 3 and September 23, leaving disturbing messages about her and her husband. The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts characterized these communications as "disturbing." Proia was indicted by a federal grand jury in Boston on one count of cyberstalking.

Attorney General Todd Blanche praised the work of the FBI and prosecutors involved, stating, “This behavior is criminal and will be treated as it should — with prosecution!” The indictment follows complaints made by Katie Miller last year regarding alleged threats or harassment.
