CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) -- Authorities say the man who pleaded guilty three years ago to providing cocaine to former South Carolina Treasurer Thomas Ravenel has been charged with trespassing after being caught having sex in a Charleston museum.

The Post and Courier of Charleston reports that 29-year-old Michael L. Miller and a 22-year-old Folly Beach woman were arrested around 3 a.m. Oct. 14 at the Charleston Museum.

Police say the couple told them they met at a nearby bar and went inside the museum after noticing an unlocked door.

Miller told the newspaper in an email Thursday, "What can I say, I get around."

Prosecutors say Miller has completed his probation from his 10-month sentence for providing cocaine to Ravenel, so he won't face additional penalties in that case.
