Ongoing federal and state investigations into sexual misconduct allegations against former Rep. Eric Swalwell, including an FBI search warrant execution in mid-August that seized electronic devices at San Francisco airport and his Washington home, have not produced charges or an arrest. Separate probes by the Manhattan district attorney and Los Angeles authorities remain active following his April resignation from Congress amid the claims. No public indication of imminent arrest has emerged in the weeks since the device seizures, and legal processes for such cases typically involve extended review before any custodial action. Traders assign a 93% probability to no arrest by September 30, reflecting the absence of confirmed developments that would accelerate proceedings within the narrow remaining window.
