Fred Piccolo, a former spokesperson for Gov. Ron DeSantis and most recently the marketing director at New College of Florida, was fired after being arrested for the fourth time in less than a year on charges of indecent exposure.
In 2020, Piccolo stepped down as DeSantis' spokesperson after backlash over a tweet downplaying COVID-19 fatalities. Two years later, he was accused of sending inappropriate text messages while working as campaign manager for Florida Rep. Jackie Toledo—allegations he denied, and which were later dropped.
