Miller confessed his covert activities to the [[FBI]] in 1954 and appeared as a witness in [[Robert Soblen]]'s espionage trial in 1961.  He testified that his 1944 Mexican assignment included investigating reports of a budding alliance between Trotskyists, [[anarchist]]s, and other radical groups in contact with French writer [[Victor Serge]], who was living in exile. Miller testified that he was introduced to [[Lucy Booker]], a courier between Miller and Soble in 1945. Reports on the Trotskyists were typed in Booker's residence. Soble informed Miller in 1945 that he was being transferred to another [[Agent handling|controller]], and it was then that he was introduced to Soblen.
