Samuel Miele, a former campaign fundraiser and vendor for Rep. George Santos (R-NY), has been indicted by a Brooklyn federal grand jury on four counts of wire fraud and one count of aggravated identity theft. The indictment alleges that Miele impersonated a top aide to House leadership while contacting donors for Santos' 2022 election campaign, earning a 15% commission on all donations he secured. The U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York has not yet released a statement on the indictment.
