On November 5th Arizona federal officials raided a home in the Fountain Hills area in Maricopa County.

The agents confiscated eight hard drives, three computers and a bag of USB sticks.

The house belongs to 56-year-old Elliot Kerwin.

The agents were looking for evidence of a cyberattack on an unnamed organization and stolen voter data.

Forbes reported:

On the morning of November 5, as the 2020 election hung in the balance, Arizona federal agents raided a two-story house in Fountain Hills, Maricopa County, a county that had become a key battleground in the presidential race. The agents were looking for evidence of a cyberattack on an unnamed organization and stolen voter data. They left with eight hard drives, three computers and a bag of USB sticks. The resident of the property, a 56-year-old IT expert named Elliot Kerwin, was served the warrant. He is not yet facing charges and was unreachable for comment at the time of publication. There is no indication that anything other than voters’ information, which can be acquired for a few hundred dollars in Arizona counties, was taken from the affected office.

The warrant, discovered by Forbes this week, reveals investigators have been looking into a computer intrusion at an unnamed “victim office,” which occurred from October 21 to November 4. At the Kerwin residence, they were looking for any evidence within the seized computers that showed they’d been used to access the IT network at the office, as well as “protected voters’ information” and any indication that it had been disseminated to other people.

Of the 15 county recorder’s offices contacted by Forbes about the investigation, only one, Maricopa County, confirmed voter data had been stolen, noting that a federal investigation was under way. The Maricopa County Recorder’s office, which is just 30 minutes’

To quote an old Wendy’s commercial “where’s the beef?” Would be nice to see some evidence or an update on the case.

The Arizona federal officials found a nice spot in the desert for that material.

From the Forbes Magazine source, it says:

The raid was made a month ago. Why is this being reported only now, and what did they discover since?

The article refers to Federal agents, but not the specific agency. If it is the U.S. Marshals Service, they are good guys (I think). If it is the FBI, the evidence will be hidden or destroyed.

If there's any truth to this, and FBI/DoJ has not publicized its interest in election matters (such as warranted searches), then they are once again hiding felonious activity from the American public.

These entities are completely out of control and have no sane guidance.

In the midst of election turmoil and OBVIOUS massive fraud and felonies, they don't disclose that "we're on the case and we're after any election criminality"?

Sick to death and disgusted with their ongoing misbehaviors and secret undisclosed BS "investigations."

They ARE NOT in the business of protecting the American citizen or the republic or the country. Disgusting.

Not trying to defend those organizations, but there could be on going investigations involving other individuals. I'm confident in some cases, going public would obviously compromise their cases. Then again it's the FBI/DOJ so who knows.

I have inside sources that I cannot reveal.

Grand Jury indictments have been issued.

They will be enforced at the moment of maximum political impact.

Trust Barr. Trust Wray. Trust Durham.

The FBI/DoJ are now so disreputable and so obviously compromised that no American citizen should believe any of their stock excuses/delays/coverups.

They have gone completely rogue with their untenable secrecy and lies, and need to regain trust with the American citizen. Which they've flushed down the toilet.

They at least need to assert that they have XX investigations underway and have issued XX warrants for various election matters.

As far as I can tell, after 4 years of completely corrupt "investigations," they are doing zip, zero, nada about obvious election criminality.

They are disgusting and in breach of their sworn and solemn oaths, every single last one.

Yep. Attempting to criminally compromise, undermine and overthrow a legitimate candidate then President of the United States is about as damning as it gets.

"Grand Jury indictments have been issued."

Glad you "know" that.

Show 'em.

Indictments talk, BS walks.

If FBI/DoJ are talking, they're lying. Rogue operations. In breach of solemn oaths and they are monumental threats to the American Republic.

Disgusting. They are so awful and traitorous that there is no word sufficiently strong to describe their behavior.

No!

I am Z.

Trump's plan to temporarily vacate the Office of President is brilliant.

Prepare for more Z-drops.
