Agents sought Stingray warrants to track producer linked to Don Lemon's ICE protest coverage

Court filings show law enforcement obtained warrants in Minnesota and Pennsylvania to use cell-site simulators, or Stingrays, to locate Jerome Richardson, a recent Temple University graduate charged alongside 38 others over a January protest at a St. Paul church tied to ICE. Agents also sought similar surveillance tools against journalist Georgia Fort and a Senate candidate, and pursued pen register orders tied to Fort and a number linked to Don Lemon, though it's unclear if those were approved or used.

HSI subpoenaed REI for buyer records of a specific beanie in Minneapolis ICE probe

Court filings reveal Homeland Security Investigations agents subpoenaed REI in March, seeking purchase records for anyone in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area who bought a particular dark green beanie since 2024. The request is one of 92 subpoenas issued as part of a federal lawsuit against 39 people, including protesters and journalists, connected to a demonstration at an ICE-linked church. Other subpoenas reportedly sought data from social media firms, airlines, telecom companies, and a car rental agency, with one airline allegedly asked to flag a defendant's future travel.
