The house Thao shares with Jones was raided by the FBI final June. Legislation enforcement officers have remained tight-lipped on what Thao has been accused of.
The mayor, who was recalled by voters within the November election, has repeatedly denied she is the topic of the investigation. The FBI has neither confirmed nor denied this.
Thao has largely remained defiant within the face of the investigation, and the recall, which she blamed on a high-level rightwing conspiracy to unseat her.
