Former Beauty Queen Accuses Florida Rep. Cory Mills of Threats: A Closer Look at the Allegations

A former American beauty queen has accused Republican Rep. Cory Mills of Florida of threatening to share intimate videos with anyone she dated after their breakup earlier this year. The Columbia County Sheriff’s Office and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement are investigating the allegations. Lindsey Langston, who was elected as the Columbia County Republican state committeewoman and crowned Miss United States, revealed details of their relationship, which began in November 2021. Despite the secrecy surrounding their relationship, Langston shared that Mills talked about a future together, including starting a family and getting married. However, their relationship faced challenges, including financial issues and shady cash transactions. Mills, who co-founded PACEM Defense, an international weapons company, with his estranged wife, faced eviction due to missed rent payments. Additionally, questions have been raised about his campaign financing and business dealings. Langston and Mills ended their relationship in February 2025 after a domestic violence incident involving another woman. Following the breakup, Mills allegedly threatened to share explicit videos and photos of Langston with anyone she dated, prompting her to report the threats to law enforcement. Langston's decision to come forward highlights the risks she faced but also sheds light on the alleged behavior of a public figure.
