Several properties used by a Mississippi district attorney have been raided by the FBI.
Democratic Hinds County District Attorney Jody Owen's office was raided on Wednesday, as was the Downtown Cigar Company, a tobacco shop and lounge he owns in Jackson, per Idaho News.
The reason behind the searches has not been revealed by officials.
FBI spokesman Marshay Lawson said in a statement: 'The FBI is executing federal search warrants at the multiple locations.
'The affidavit in support of the search warrants has been sealed by the court and so I am prohibited from commenting further. There is no threat to public safety,'
The Hinds County District Attorney’s Office said in its own statement that it was fully cooperating with the probe.
The office added it is 'fully functioning and continues its work on behalf of the citizens of Hinds County.
'That has been and will continue to be our primary focus.'
Owens was elected in 2019 and re-elected in 2023.

Sure sounds like their standard removal of incriminating evidence.
“The reason behind the searches has not been revealed by officials.”
He said something that displeased Dear Leader.
The FIB trying to make it look like they are not the Secret Police of the DNC/Uniparty?
Sacrifice one minor Soros petty corrupt official to save all the others.
Was Deadly force authorized?
Lefties have to be PRETTY CORRUPT to get the attention of the feds.
Also, we see that when Soros recruited candidates for DAs, he was scraping the bottom of the barrel.
Probably owes 5 dollars in back taxes. The FBI needs a complete overhaul.
Yes. It’s standard on all warrants.
Makes ya wonder if this was just for show.
Must not have remitted “Joe’s 10%”.
Maybe unrelated:
Owen is apparently in Navy Reserve intelligence.
FBI is known to be investigating Jackson garbage collection contract.
It is probably because of this: https://www.wlbt.com/2022/09/13/exclusive-unredacted-incident-report-alleges-hinds-da-threatened-man-with-gun-lists-possible-motive/
An incident report claims Hinds County District Attorney Jody Owens threatened a man with a gun and alleges a love triangle could have led to the confrontation, though law enforcement redacted some of these details from the public.
Joshua Towns told Capitol Police officers that Owens pulled a weapon on him while he was at his girlfriend’s apartment at Electric 308 on September 3.
(from 2022)
Jackson, MS has a significantly higher rate of crime than the US average. The violent crime rate in Jackson is 45.8, almost double the national average of 22.7. Similarly, property crime in Jackson is 71.8 compared to the US average of 35.4. This means that residents of Jackson are more likely to be victims of violent or property crimes than people living elsewhere.
This is a kya, “ see we do it to everybody raid.”
“Also, we see that when Soros recruited candidates for DAs, he was scraping the bottom of the barrel.”
Which was still far above the filth that voted for them.
