From 2017 until 2021, Milione served as a Senior Managing Director with Guidepost Solution’s Monitoring, Compliance, and Investigations practice where he conducted sensitive international and domestic investigations and started the company’s Controlled Substances Act (CSA)/Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) DEA Compliance Practice.

From 2015-2017, he led the DEA’s Diversion Control Division as Assistant Administrator, regulating more than 1.65 million DEA registrants across the entire pharmaceutical supply chain.
Before leading DEA’s Diversion Control Division, Milione served as the Assistant Special Agent in Charge (ASAC) of DEA’s Bilateral Investigations Unit (BIU), which is part of DEA’s Special Operations Division. For more than a decade, from his selection as a founding member of the BIU in 2002, through his promotion to, and tenure as ASAC, Milione and his teams operated throughout Africa, Asia, Latin America, Central America, and Europe, spearheading some of the Justice Department’s most sensitive and significant criminal investigations.
