[His home in New Orleans was searched at the same time, but that is not where the cash was stashed.]
IIRC, the freezer was originally in his NO home and he had the NG remove it during the aftermath of the flooding from Katrina.
Subsequently, it was taken to his DC office and that is where the Feds. found it (again). I believe they knew the money was in there from surveillance done earlier.

It has been widely reported that on Aug. 3, 2005, FBI agents raided Jefferson's home in Northeast Washington and found $90,000 of the cash in the freezer. Since Katrina hit on or about August 29th, it doesn't compute that it was the same freezer.
