A retired Texas couple said FBI agents busted through the gate of their rural home, threw flashbangs, handcuffed them, and trained lasers on them before searching their home for evidence connected to the Jan. 6 breach of the Capitol. They believe the FBI mistakenly identified them as someone else.
Raid Before Dawn
- Their ordeal began when their gate alarm woke them up in the pre-dawn hours of June 22, 2018.
- Kennemer got his AR-15 rifle and went outside, not knowing what to expect, and DeWolfe got up and saw a white car driving toward them. She noticed red laser sights trained on both of them, and a drone flying around.
Daughter’s Response
- Ricci Bratton, who served in the U.S. Airforce, said her mom called her around 1 p.m.
- At first, she thought her mother was in shock but was trying to remain calm
- The FBI did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
