The FBI is serving search warrants at the Los Angeles Unified School District’s headquarters and the superintendent’s home.

Federal officials in Los Angeles were serving the search warrants Wednesday as part of an ongoing investigation, according to a person familiar with the investigation who spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the probe. The nature of the investigation and what allegations were being examined was not immediately clear.

Alberto Carvalho has been superintendent of the nation’s second-largest school district since February 2022. The sprawling district, which covers more than two dozen cities, has more than 500,000 students.

1. More fascism. Charges? Schools under attack. Hell, we're all under attack unless you're white and supportive. nt

[Jose Garcia]

24. Apparently the school board is taking this very seriously:

2. Same result, probably

Ka$h Money won’t find the Trump-Epstein files there, either. Just victims and future victims.

[ChicagoTeamster]

3. Warrants have to state the legal reason for the search and be signed by either a judge or a clerk of the circuit court.

Is this about finding the names and addresses of suspected illegal students? Or providing gender affirming care to trans students?

[2naSalit]

8. They have been known to...

Lie about what warrants are for as well as shopping for a judge who will help them lie about it as we have seen recently in Georgia.

[ChicagoTeamster]

12. Yes, but the article didn't mention the reason for the search which should have been on a warrant.

[2naSalit]

13. Which tells you that...

They didn't see the warrant or it was obscured from them as was done in Georgia.

[chowder66]

4. Carvalho pushed back against DHS for trying to breach two elementary schools here and he is an immigrant.

He is a citizen of the U.S.

[wnylib]

14. Well that explains it. Open season on immigrants today.

Somebody please deport the Slovenian immigrant who entered on false pretenses.

For someone who hates immigrants, Trumpstein likes to marry them.

[Initech]

5. For fucking what? That idiotic podcast dude bro who's making baseless fraud claims and getting away with it?

[muriel_volestrangler]

6. It says "court-ordered" - the public needs to know which judge was involved, and what the justification given was

It's a matter of whether the judge is a fascist or not.

[bluestarone]

7. Exactly!!

The warrants need to be opened and reviewed BEFORE entrance allowed!!

[2naSalit]

9. As in...

Kangaroo court ordered.



I wonder if they used that same judge in what was it Oklahoma who signed the bogus warrant to raid Georgia's election facility.

[OLDMDDEM]

10. Or was he/she lied to.

[Buddyzbuddy]

11. Sorry, but the announcement "the FBI is serving and executing search warrants" has lost it's impact.

The formerly formidable Justice Department and FBI are now jokes. I for one, consider most recipients of search warrants "innocent" which is how it's supposed to be, but the difference is, "until proven guilty" can no longer be accepted as truth.
When you have an A.G. clowning around to impress a felon and an FBI Director partying it up in public like a fratboy, how can you possibly take anything the "Justice" Department says or does seriously?

15. Most answers here, LA Times link. It's not the schools; it's financial about a failed AI something.

19. It's supposedly about the collapse of education technology company AllHere's chatbot.

This company's main product up until the AI disaster was a text messaging system designed to reduce chronic absenteeism.

Their AI chatbot had many issues, including security issues potentially violating the privacy of students and parents.

LAUSD was about three million dollars into it when the company collapsed and investors pulled their funding.

I'm rather looking forward to the collapse of the huge AI companies in a similar manner, but the odds are the FBI isn't going to be making a big show of it, and may even be tasked with burying the mess, as they have with the Epstein files.

All the top people promoting this latest dead-end AI fad are grifters, throwing other people's money into the problem, hoping they'll find a way to make it profitable before the bottom falls out. Or maybe they know it's bullshit already and are crossing their fingers that they are too big to fail.

[OldBaldy1701E]

21. Oh, trust me, it has already been profitable.

VERY profitable.

They just want to have their cake and eat it too.

And, we will, more than likely, let them.

[quaint]

22. Thanks, and I agree with you.

I still don't get what this has to do with immigration or deportation.

[hunter]

23. It could be pretext for harassing immigrants and minorities.

If the school district and the business were run by straight white republican men in a white republican school district it's likely all of this would ignored as just another failed business plan.

How many Trump businesses have failed?

[LiberalArkie]

16. Feeding students without charging them?

[IcyPeas]

17. Smells like Bill Essayli? Did this guy okay the warrants?

Trump/Bondi appointed crony. Back in June this is the prick who okayed the warrant so ICE agents could raid the shop in the downtown LA garment district and arrested union leader David Huerta. Charged with impeding an officer -- the usual b.s. charge.

U.S. Justice Department officials said judicially approved search warrants were being executed at both Carvalho’s office in downtown Los Angeles and his San Pedro residence. No reason for the raids has been made public.

The underlying affidavits are sealed, officials told news outlets. District officials have not yet spoken publicly about the matter. A spokesperson for U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli said there would be no press conference on the raids Wednesday.
