The FBI (web) office in Baltimore says they have opened a civil rights case looking into the July 29 raid at the Berwyn Heights Mayor's home.

Prince George's County police busted into the mayor's house on Edmonston Road, after a packaged containing marijuana was delivered to his residence. Now it seems the mayor and his family are simply victims.

More than a week after the raid on her home, Calvo's wife still has trouble talking about what happened when police officers violently entered her home, shot her two dogs and tied her husband and mother up for more than two hours.

Despite the misfortunate event, Calvo and his wife, Trinity Tomsic called a press conference Thursday during which they said they are asking for a federal civil rights investigation into the joint police and sheriff's raid on their home.

The Baltimore FBI office opened the case after Calvo sent a letter to them.

Transcript of Mayor Calvo's Remarks

Police reportedly responded to the home after being tipped off to a package that contained 32 pounds of Marijuana was addressed to Tomsic. Police then delivered the pot to the couple's home, and a swat team burst through the front door.

Police, however, have since arrested a delivery man and seized more than 400 pounds of marijuana. Police also admitted Calvo and his wife are likely innocent victims; all the while, defending their bloody raid. They also are defending the no-knock raid, saying they didn't knock because Tomsic's mother spotted the swat team.

Sheriff Mike Jackson defends the officer's actions saying, "Our team was compromised by the mother-in-law who saw them." The officers also said when they entered into the home, they "had to neutralize the dogs".

Meanwhile, Mayor Calvo says the justification for the level of law enforcement violence employed is absurd.
