Abstract

Federal agents raided the home of Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao, who is facing a recall effort due to concerns over crime in the city. The FBI also searched three other homes. Thao, the first Hmong-American woman to lead a major US city, has faced controversies including the firing of the police chief, high crime rates, and the departure of the Oakland A's. The FBI has not provided further information about the raid. Thao's tenure has coincided with a decrease in overall crime this year. [Extracted from the article]
