FBI Informant Rearrested Under Unusual Circumstances Over Alleged False Biden Bribery Claim

FBI Informant Rearrested Under Unusual Circumstances Over Alleged False Biden Bribery Claim

In a shocking turn of events, Alexander Smirnov, the FBI informant who accused President Biden and his son Hunter of accepting a $10 million bribe, has been rearrested under mysterious circumstances. Smirnov’s lawyers have described the circumstances surrounding his arrest as “bizarre,” raising questions about the validity of the charges against him.

Smirnov was initially released on Tuesday after US Magistrate Judge Daniel Albregts granted his motion for pretrial release. The Justice Department had attempted to keep Smirnov in custody, but their efforts were denied. However, just two days after his release, Smirnov was taken into custody again while consulting with his attorneys at their law offices in downtown Las Vegas.

The government filed a motion to reopen Smirnov’s detention hearing, claiming that he had made false statements and created fictitious records. These charges stem from the bribery allegations he made against the Bidens. Despite Judge Albregts’s prior ruling and denial of the stay request, Smirnov was re-arrested on the same charges based on the same indictment.

Smirnov’s lawyers have argued that the re-arrest violates their client’s Sixth Amendment rights. They point out that there are no provisions for re-arrest in this district after being ordered released. The fact that Smirnov was attending a legal consultation meeting at his attorneys’ office contradicts the notion that he is a flight risk. His lawyers have demanded an emergency detention hearing and the immediate release of their client, emphasizing the unusual circumstances surrounding his re-arrest.

The initial arrest of Smirnov occurred on February 14 when he flew into Las Vegas from overseas. He was charged with two felony counts related to the alleged false statements he made to the FBI in a June 2020 FD-1023 form. House Republicans fought for access to these statements last year, leading to increased scrutiny of the case.

Special counsel David Weiss, who is overseeing the investigation, has labeled Smirnov’s bribery allegations as fabrications. Weiss argues that Smirnov was not working with Burisma, the Ukrainian energy giant, at the time he claimed to have had conversations with a key company figure who informed him about the bribes. This discrepancy raises doubts about the credibility of Smirnov’s claims.

Furthermore, federal prosecutors have accused Smirnov of having a bias against President Biden. They allege that he met with Russian intelligence officials in November and is now actively spreading new lies that could impact US elections. These accusations further complicate the case and raise questions about Smirnov’s motives.

As the legal battle continues, it remains unclear what the future holds for Alexander Smirnov and his explosive bribery allegations against President Biden and Hunter Biden. The bizarre circumstances surrounding his rearrest have only deepened the mystery surrounding this case. One thing is certain, however – this is a story that will continue to captivate and intrigue the public as more details emerge.
