Office of California state Sen. Ron Calderon raided by FBI

Yesterday the FBI raided the Sacramento offices of state senator Ron Calderon. The agency remains mum on why they conducted this search, the first of its kind at a senator's office in 30 years.

For more on this we're joined now by KPCC's Frank Stoltze.

Correction: Contrary to earlier reports, the Legislative Offices of the Latino Caucus were not searched Tuesday. The FBI searched two offices but, according to a statement released Wednesday, officials from the California State Senate said that one of them was misidentified as belonging to the caucus due to an outdated roster of room numbers. Both offices that were searched belong to Senator Calderon.
