Omar's lawyers say authorities defied judge's limits on home search
Original: Rep. Ilhan Omar’s lawyers say authorities ignored judge’s restrictions on home search
Lawyers for Representative Ilhan Omar say federal authorities disregarded a judge's restrictions when searching her Minnesota home. In a letter obtained by The Washington Post, her attorneys condemned a Justice Department inquiry into her immigration history as a politically motivated attack, escalating a dispute between the Minnesota Democrat and the Trump-era Justice Department over the conduct and motives of the investigation.
Why now: Fresh allegations that federal investigators overstepped a judge's orders in a probe targeting a prominent congresswoman have drawn widespread attention.
