David Morens, 78, was stripped and handcuffed for email violations

When federal agents came to the home of David Morens on Monday with an arrest warrant for allegedly concealing federal records related to the debate about the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic, they behaved as if the 78-year-old retired scientist was a violent criminal.

Science has learned that Morens, an influenza researcher who worked at the U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) until 2022 and was an aide to its former director, Anthony Fauci, was having his morning coffee at his Chester, Maryland, home when he heard loud pounding on the door. He opened it to find a half dozen federal agents carrying guns and wearing tactical gear, including bulletproof vests, according to two sources who spoke with him but asked not to be identified.

Why undress the guy, before hauling him around in public, in his underwear? iirc, they did the same thing to a guy in Minneapolis, last winter, marching the guy through the snow wearing nothing but his undershorts.

Just another storm trooper roust.

Since so many of the Trump arrests never make it trial or are dismissed early in the trial process that they can't rely on show trials, the Trump Department of Injustice has opted for show arrests.
