US Edition1 year in prison for US border agent accused of ordering women to show their breasts
Shane Millan admitted to coercing multiple immigrant women to expose their breasts during virtual border processing in 2023, violating their constitutional rights, prosecutors said.
- On Wednesday, U.S. Border Patrol agent Shane Millan was sentenced to a year in federal prison after pleading guilty in March to two counts of deprivation of rights, the U.S. Attorney's Office said.
- While processing arrivals, Millan used his government computer to research Spanish phrases, including `I will also need you to lift your bra, please`, and told two women he was checking tattoos to compel them to lift their shirts.
- Prosecutors detailed incidents including Millan ordering three immigrant women in 2023 to expose their chests via webcam and a fourth woman to show her breasts with her bra on while taking information in Eagle Pass, Texas.
- In pleading guilty, Shane Millan admitted he deprived multiple victims of their constitutional right to be free from unreasonable searches, and acting U.S. Attorney John Sarcone said `Nobody is above the law`.
- While assigned in Jefferson County, he was stationed at Wellesley Island on the St. Lawrence River and processed U.S.-Mexico border arrivals via virtual webcam processing, prosecutors say he exploited this setup for personal gratification.
