Ex-Miss Rhode Island contestant and South Florida Village Commissioner, Julianna Clare Strout, admitted to lying to federal investigators to visit her lover, who was being held in an immigration detention facility in Miami.
Reportedly, Julianna Clare Strout pretended to be a paralegal to get into a federal immigration detention facility to visit her partner last year, where she was caught. She has now allegedly been sentenced to a year of probation and 50 hours of community service.
As per federal prosecutors, the defendant faces misdemeanor charges for attempting to enter and access a federal facility under dubious circumstances and fraud.
Julianna Clare Strout pretended to be a paralegal to meet a prisoner, with whom she had a romantic relationship
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Krome Service Processing Center in Miami briefly stopped allowing social visits in October 2021. However, visits by solicitors were authorized.
As per the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida, an elected official in a South Florida city and former beauty queen Julianna Clare Strout made three visits to the Krome Service Processing Center last year to meet a prisoner with whom she had a romantic relationship.
According to prosecutors, Strout allegedly pretended to be a paralegal for a law company and requested permission to sign paperwork from a client who was her romantic partner.
The US Attorney's Office reported that the 36-year-old even provided officials with letterheads from the law company she claimed to represent.
The prosecutor's statement revealed:
"In fact, the law firm never authorized Strout to use its letterhead or visit Krome on its behalf. Strout had never worked for the law firm. Instead, she was romantically involved with the detainee."
On one occasion, according to the feds, Strout used her influence as a public official by displaying her badge as a North Bay Village commissioner to detention center guards after being initially turned away.
