Guardian, 08 Dec 2020
A data scientist in Florida who is embroiled in a dispute with the state’s Republican governor over the handling of coronavirus figures, has had her home raided by armed police and computers confiscated.
Rebekah Jones posted a video of the raid that showed state police carrying handguns escorting her out of her Tallahassee home. She can be heard saying: “He just pointed a gun at my children,” with her husband and two children apparently upstairs at the time.
