Rural Nevada judge who once ran for state treasurer indicted on federal fraud charges
LAS VEGAS (AP) — A Nevada justice of the peace who ran unsuccessfully for state treasurer in 2022 has been indicted on federal charges alleging she used money donated for a memorial to slain police officers for political campaign costs, rent and her daughter’s wedding. The five-count indictment against Michele Fiore, 53, a justice of the peace in rural Pahrump and a state Republican National Committee member, was filed Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas. In a statement Wednesday, the former Nevada state Assembly and Las Vegas City Council member said she knew for years that the FBI was investigating but learned of her indictment through media reports. Fiore said the process “profoundly” affected her and her family, friends and constituents. “I hold my oath of office sacred and have consistently strived to serve my community with integrity and to the best of my ability,” Fiore said. “Now that I have been accused, I eagerly await my opportunity to address these charges in court.”
