Federal agents seize electronic devices belonging to former U.S. Rep. Eric Swalwell and execute search warrants as part of a federal investigation into sexual misconduct allegations, multiple outlets report.
Reports say Swalwell’s phone or other devices are taken at San Francisco International Airport, with some accounts describing the action as occurring when he is traveling. Other coverage describes FBI agents conducting a home search and executing warrants at Swalwell’s Washington-area residence, with outlets citing “sources,” a person familiar with the matter, or reporting on items reportedly confiscated.
The outlets largely focus on the same investigative steps—device seizures and a raid—while differing in emphasis and detail. Some specify the airport seizure first and then the home search the next day. Others foreground that warrants are executed and that electronics are confiscated. Several articles also reference the broader background: Swalwell resigned from Congress in April after media reports and allegations of sexual misconduct, and some coverage notes he withdrew from a gubernatorial race.
None of the articles provide definitive conclusions on the allegations’ merits; they describe investigative actions tied to ongoing or escalating federal scrutiny.
