Rep. Cory Mills Faces Assault Allegations and Unresolved Arrest Warrant

D.C. police requested an arrest warrant for Rep. Cory Mills, but the U.S. Attorney's Office has yet to approve it, citing the need for further investigation.

Rep. Cory Mills, a Republican from Florida, is under investigation for allegedly assaulting a 27-year-old woman in his Washington, D.C., residence on February 19.
The initial police report described Mills as having physically pushed and bruised the woman, though she later recanted parts of her statement, claiming the bruises were unrelated to the incident.
D.C. police drafted an arrest warrant for Mills, but the U.S. Attorney's Office, led by Ed Martin, declined to sign it, requesting further investigation instead.
Internal Affairs of the Metropolitan Police Department is reviewing the handling of the case, including why no arrest was made at the scene and inconsistencies in police reports.
Mills, who denies any wrongdoing, is a two-term congressman and has expressed interest in running for Senate in Florida in 2026.
