The FBI on Wednesday raided a local prosecutor's office and business in Mississippi's capital city, although officials declined to say whether Hinds County District Attorney Jody Owens is suspected of wrongdoing. FBI agents spent hours searching a cigar bar owned by Owens in downtown Jackson. They also removed items from his office in the Hinds County Courthouse.
Marshay Lawson, the spokesperson for the FBI's office in Jackson, said the reason for the search remains secret. 'The FBI is executing federal search warrants at multiple locations,' Lawson said. 'The affidavit in support of the search warrants has been sealed by the court and so I am prohibited from commenting further.' Owens also didn't say what the raid was about.
In 2022, Owens was cited by the Capitol Police for simple assault, a misdemeanor, after police said he aimed and pointed a gun at a man from Hattiesburg who was visiting a woman in a downtown Jackson apartment. Owens denied wrongdoing at the time.
