FBI and IRS Launch Coordinated Raid on Duval Teachers Union Office in Jacksonville, Florida – Authorities Tight-Lipped on Ongoing Investigation

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) conducted a joint raid at the Duval Teachers United building on Atlantic Boulevard in Jacksonville’s San Marco community.

Federal agents arrived Wednesday morning and continued their activities until late afternoon, seizing numerous boxes of business materials, computer equipment, and paperwork.

According to reports from The Florida Times-Union, a box of evidence clearly labeled “DTU Credit Card Statements” was among the materials collected.

The Florida Times-Union has learned that the investigation possibly involves misappropriation of funds. Regional FBI spokeswoman Amanda Videll confirmed that a “court-authorized search warrant” was executed but declined to release any further information, stating, “Because the investigation is ongoing, details about the search are not being released at this time.”

“I’m baffled by it, I was astonished,” said one anonymous DTU member. ″I was shocked because they usually represent us really well, we don’t know. We will find out.”
