BARRY COUNTY, Mich. (March 12, 2014) — FBI agents executed a search warrant Wednesday at the Barry County Sheriff’s Office.

Officials with the FBI confirmed they were assisting the Department of Justice’s Office of the Inspector General, but would not speak to the circumstances surrounding the warrant.

No one was arrested during the raid, according to FBI officials.   They declined to comment further because the investigation is active.

According to the Office of the Inspector General’s website, the mission of their office is to detect and deter waste, fraud, abuse and misconduct with Department of Justice programs and personnel.
