The FBI searched the Virginia home of Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson on Wednesday as part of an investigation into “a government contractor accused of illegally retaining classified government materials,” the newspaper said.
Natanson was home at the time agents executed the warrant. According to the Post, the warrant said investigators were probing Aurelio Perez-Lugones, a Maryland-based system administrator with top secret security clearance who is accused of accessing and taking home classified intelligence reports that were allegedly found in his lunchbox and in his basement. The Post cited an FBI affidavit.
Natanson covers “the Trump administration’s reshaping of the government and its effects,” according to her X bio. Her home and electronic devices were searched.
