(USATODAY)

Shane Millan, 53, was charged in August 2024 with four misdemeanor counts of deprivation of rights under color of law, according to court records reviewed by USA TODAY. According to court records, Millan pleaded guilty to two of the charges on Friday at the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of New York.

Millan admitted that he told multiple women to show him their breasts under the guise of a legitimate search during virtual processing calls before allowing them access to the country, court documents show. His sentencing is scheduled for July 7 and Millan faces up to two years in prison and a fine of up to $200,000. The U.S. Customs and Border Protection declined to comment, saying, "As a matter of policy, CBP doesn’t comment on former employees, nor criminal cases that are ongoing."
