David Copperfield -- Investigated by FBI
Posted Oct 18th 2007 7:52PM by TMZ Staff Filed under: Celebrity Justice Magician David Copperfield is being investigated by the FBI.
Authorities won't comment about the investigation, but did confirm that agents raided Copperfield's personal belongings Wednesday night. We're told agents searched a warehouse in Las Vegas where Copperfield stores items for his show.
The raid reportedly stems from an ongoing case in Seattle. TMZ spoke to an FBI spokesperson who refused to comment, saying only that there was an ongoing investigation.
Eyewitness News in Vegas is reporting that 12 agents "stormed the warehouse," seizing a computer hard drive, a digital camera system and nearly $2 million in cash.
David Chesnoff, Copperfield's lawyer, told TMZ, "We understand there is an investigation, we are in touch with the investigators, and are respecting the confidentiality of the investigation." Chesnoff would not comment on the nature of the probe.
More money..

Child porn is a booming buisness for those sick twists. I’m just guessing about it all though, no hard facts.
That would be my guess also.
FBI raids Copperfield’s warehouse
FBI agents raided the Las Vegas warehouse of magician David Copperfield Wednesday in an investigation of possible sexual misconduct by the illusionist, a source with knowledge of the investigation said.
Copperfield’s accuser said the misconduct occurred outside the country, but the case came under the FBI’s jurisdiction because the accuser was a U.S. citizen, the source said.
Copperfield’s lawyer, David Chesnoff, confirmed the investigation Thursday.
“If in fact those are the allegations, unfortunately false allegations are all too often made against famous individuals,” Chesnoff said. “But we are confident the investigation will conclude favorably.”

Thailand?
He's the 10th highest paid celebrity in the world ($56-plus million per year).
He owns a cluster of four tiny islands in the southern Bahamas where he says he has found the "Fountain of Youth."
He claims the waters there bring dead leaves back to life and brings near-dead insects back to life, also.

I think that they should focus on Jack Dawkins...
“Rumors” about Copperfield and the Ringling Brothers have circulated for years. Again just guessing.
> Likely something foolish - 12 agents “stormed the warehouse” - Boy FBI agents love to play cowboys (especially on all but guaranteed soft targets - What foolishness -)
The ones today love to hotdog it.
35 years ago, 2 FBI agents showed up where I worked, asked about one of the employees and then got escorted to the employee’s work area. The told him the guy he was under arrest, put cuffs on him and led him away. It wasn’t ‘til we watched the evening news that we found out he had murdered 5 prostitutes over a 2 year period in 2 states. No fuss, no SWAT, no shouting, they simply led him away.
I’ll guarantee that the same situation today would require a SWAT team as a minimum.

Curiouser and curiouser...
LOL....good one....
Agree. Kiddie porn.
Also the “12 agents stormed” line is simply a young news-writer (we called them the “newschildren”) with too much testosterone and not enough experience.
2 mil = hush money?
