US Attorney Urges Court to Keep Ilhan Omar's Search Warrant Sealed

Times of India · politics

The US Attorney's office in Washington has asked a federal judge to deny requests to unseal the search warrant used to search Representative Ilhan Omar's home. US Attorney Jeanine Pirro argued that releasing the records before the investigation concludes could jeopardize the proceedings. She described unsealing the records at this stage as "rash," stating the investigation should proceed until prosecutors decide whether to file charges. Federal agents searched Omar's home on October 12, seizing 17 items, including phones and notebooks, amid allegations of immigration fraud.
