FBI, IRS Search Santa Rosa Commissioner’s House, Business

December 1, 2011

Federal agents searched the home and business of Santa Rosa County Commissioner Bob Cole on Wednesday.

Federal Bureau of Investigation and Internal Revenue Service agents reportedly removed boxes and paperwork and laptop computers from Bob Cole’s Automotive Professionals on Long Street in Pensacola, located between North 9th Avenue and Langley Avenue.

FBI and IRS agents also searched buildings on property with Cole’s home on Riverstone Road in East Milton.

Questions about the purpose of the visit were referred to the U.S. Attorney’s office, which declined to comment because the nature of the agents’ business was not public record.

    I always wonder about people, who maintain files on computers and ledger books? Those seem to do nothing but create problems. They could have at least given you a copy of the search warrant, as it is a court related public document.
