David Copperfield Being Investigated by the FBI

David Copperfield is being investigated by the FBI, although they won’t say exactly what he’s being investigated for. He has a warehouse in Las Vegas called the International Museum & Library of the Conjuring Arts where he keeps tricks and memorabilia, and it was raided by FBI agents Wednesday where they seized a computer hard drive, a digital camera memory chip, and nearly two million dollars in cash.

"We understand there is an investigation, we are in touch with the investigators, and are respecting the confidentiality of the investigation," Copperfield’s lawyer David Chesnoff said in a brief statement.

Let me see if I can sum this up in the form of questions. What is a lost hard drive from the nuclear research facility in New Mexico? What are nude pictures of Ricky Martin? What can you make with a really good Xerox color laser printer? Maybe the director of the FBI just wants to know how Copperfield does his tricks, like in that movie with Ed Norton, The Illusionist.
