Vem Miller, 49, was arrested on gun charges Saturday after deputies found loaded guns in his car. He filed a defamation suit Tuesday against Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco.

Miller was arrested when he presented what Bianco said was a fake VIP pass at an interior checkpoint a couple of hours before the rally was scheduled to begin. He was cited on suspicion of illegally carrying a loaded firearm and possessing a large-capacity magazine and then released.

Vem Miller is suing Riverside County Sheriff's Office for civil rights violations after his Coachella Trump rally arrest.

Vem Miller strongly denied in an interview that he planned to assassinate the former president at a rally in Coachella.

The Riverside County Sheriff's Office is holding a press conference at 6 p.m. after a man with illegal guns was arrested outside Trump's Coachella rally.

Vem Miller’s lawsuit also raises questions about how — or if — he received an invitation to Donald Trump’s event.

The man arrested near former President Trump’s Coachella, Calif., rally over the weekend sued the Riverside County sheriff for defamation and other claims, saying there were “preposterous allegations” made about the incident possibly being an assassination attempt.
