One of the FBI agents who arrested @GeorgePapa19 at Dulles Airport was Special Agent Michael McSwain who:

—Illegally arrested a suspect (at an airport no less)

—Illegally searched them in violation of their 4th amendment rights

—Failed to read them their Miranda rights
Not my words - take it from the New York Times and a New York Federal Judge: dealbook.nytimes.com/2014/06/20/jud…
Oh and this happened in 2014.

Just the type of agent you’d to send to pick up PapaD at the airport in July 2017 and do things “by the book”, amirite?🤔
Reminder:

—PapaD arrested only on “probable cause” before a search warrant issued

—No complaint or indictment filed

—Phone seized

—Luggage searched

—Likely not read Miranda

—Charges filed incorrectly the next day stating he committed crimes in D.C (he didn’t)
—Detained overnight

—Arraigned without Counsel present where a potential 25 year sentence was read out in a sealed courtroom

All on the up and up folks
Oh and when the federal case against Sergey Aleynikov was thrown out, the SDNY stepped in to prosecute him for the same charges as state crimes

If that hadn’t happened this FBI agent would be losing a malicious prosecution case. As it is, they’ll probably get a way with it
