FBI agents seized electronic devices from former Democratic Rep. Eric Swalwell and searched his Washington home as part of a federal investigation into allegations of sexual misconduct. The FBI confronted Swalwell at San Francisco International Airport last weekend, seizing his cell phone. The investigation centers on allegations of sexual misconduct, following Swalwell’s resignation from Congress in April.
Sources confirm the FBI executed search warrants targeting Swalwell. The Independent reported Swalwell resigned from Congress in April following the allegations. While the nature of the allegations remains unspecified in the reporting, the FBI’s actions indicate a criminal investigation is underway.
No right-leaning sources reported Swalwell’s resignation date, but all sources agree on the seizure of his electronic devices and the ongoing federal probe. The timing of the search, at an airport, is consistently reported across outlets.
The current status of the investigation and the specifics of the allegations remain unresolved.
