About two dozen investigators from the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office raided the offices of Newsweek and its parent company, IBT Media, on Thursday.

IBT Media was co-founded by Jonathan Davis and Etienne Uzac. The IRS placed a $1.2 million federal tax lien against Uzac in December 2017.

The agents were said to be photographing servers in the offices, but not downloading any files at the offices at 7 Hanover Square, according to sources.

They appeared to be photographing the serial numbers on the machines, said a source.

In the past, IBT has been linked to a Christian church founded by Korean-American evangelist David Jang and Olivet University, a university in California that Jang’s followers founded.


The IRS had not responded to a call by press time. The Manhattan DA declined to comment.

Hal Turner is not afraid to name why he thinks it is.

New York City Police are currently engaged in a RAID at the Manhattan headquarters of Newsweek, and sources tell The Hal Turner Show the police are hunting for evidence of CHILD PORNOGRAPHY and CHILD SEX TRAFFICKING. Neither the NYPD nor the Manhattan District Attorney's office would confirm or deny these claims.


About two dozen NYPD officers and investigators from the Manhattan district attorney’s office raided the offices of Newsweek and its parent company, IBT Media, on Thursday.

The agents were said to be "imaging" servers in the offices, at the 7 Hanover Square address according to sources.

This is a fast developing story, check back for updates.

UPDATE 3:33 PM EST --
IBT Media is an American global digital news organization with over 90 million monthly readers. It publishes the International Business Times and Newsweek, among others. IBT Media is headquartered in New York City, in the Hanover Square neighborhood of Lower Manhattan. As of 2014, the company posted revenue of about $21 million and generated a profit of about $500,000.


Sources tell the Hal Turner Show that IBT is one aspect of the raid and that Child Porn/Child Sex Trafficking involving persons in and from ISRAEL is part of this ongoing raid.


UPDATE 5:16 PM EST --
Earlier calls to the NY District Attorney's Office for comment resulted in Justin Henry telling me that Joan Valero, the Communications Director would either call me back or email me. Neither took place. So I called the DA's office again just seconds ago and Emily told me "Our office is declining comment."
