Report: Ex-Biden Nuclear Official Arrested Again

This ex-Biden administration official is developing quite the rap sheet…

Embattled ex-Department of Energy (DoE) official Sam Brinton has been arrested again as a “fugitive from justice” by Maryland police late Wednesday.

A police spokesperson told Fox News the arrest was led by Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police, which is the lead law enforcement agency for both Washington, D.C., area airports.

“Montgomery County Police assisted in the arrest of Sam Brinton,” Shiera Goff, a Montgomery County Police Department spokesperson, told Fox News Digital. “The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police are lead on this.” 

“Brinton was arrested at approximately 10 p.m. last night in their home on College Parkway,” Goff added. “They are being held in the Montgomery County Central Processing Unit on a no-bond status as they await an extradition hearing. That's all of the information we have on our end.”

A witness claiming to be Brinton's neighbor told The Daily Wire, which first reported the arrest, that Brinton was arrested about an hour after four unmarked police arrived at his residence.

In April, Brinton narrowly avoided jail time in connection to a grand larceny case. (RELATED: Ex-Biden Energy Official Learns Fate In Luggage Grand Larceny Case)

As American Liberty News previously reported early December Las Vegas prosecutors charged Sam Brinton with grand larceny of an item valued between $1,200 and $5,000. Police accused Brinton of stealing a suitcase with a total estimated worth of $3,670 on July 6 at Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas. The bag contained jewelry valued at $1,700, clothing worth $850 and makeup valued at $500.

The ex-energy official was also charged with felony theft after stealing a woman's suitcase from the Minneapolis airport in October.
