Shock as beloved NJ community doctor's quaint medical office is raided by FBI

Daily Mail​10-07-2025
A New Jersey community has been rocked by an FBI raid at a beloved family doctor's office - with no explanation as to what the probe is about.
Neighbors were alarmed to see federal agents close down the headquarters of Dr Edward Lundy's practice in Gloucester City on Wednesday morning.
Several unmarked vehicles pulled up on the quiet street opposite an elementary school and a series of agents marched into the doctor's office at around 9.30am.
The raid was captured on doorbell camera footage, with some agents seen wearing suits while others were kitted out in tactical gear.
Jimmy Mano, who lives on the street, said he was shocked by the sight of the raid on the well-known and well-regarded local doctor.
'I've been here 10 years and I never seen nothing like this, ever,' Mano told ABC Action News.
'There was multiple cops coming in and out, they were taking evidence out of the house, out of the garage and stuff like that.'
'I was concerned for everybody because I always thought it was a reasonable place,' Mano added. 'He was my family doctor, and I never had any problems at all.'
'Seeing him get raided like that, it just makes me really wonder what is going on there,' said another neighbor, Williams Rodriguez.
The FBI agents did not respond to questions from a journalist at the scene, other than to confirm that Dr Lundy's office had been closed for the day.
The Daily Mail has contacted the FBI for more information. A spokesman told ABC only that the raid was part of 'court-authorized law enforcement activity'.
New Jersey Health Care records show that Lundy was certified in family medicine in 1993, and has been serving patients in his New Jersey office since 2004.
The Daily Mail was not able to reach Dr Lundy's office on Thursday.

FBI chief 'shocked to core' amid Epstein files scandal

By Embattled FBI deputy director Dan Bongino revealed he has discovered matters that have 'shocked me down to my core' during his time in office. Bongino shared a cryptic message to his social media in which he vowed to uncover 'the truth' amid mounting criticism of his handling of the Epstein files. He added: 'We cannot run a Republic like this. I'll never be the same after learning what I've learned. 'We are going to conduct these righteous and proper investigations by the book and in accordance with the law. We are going to get the answers WE ALL DESERVE. 'As with any investigation, I cannot predict where it will land, but I can promise you an honest and dignified effort at truth. Not 'my truth,' or 'your truth,' but THE TRUTH.' Bongino alluded in his statement to recent discoveries surrounding government corruption and weaponization. He did not provide a timeline for when the general public might learn about what he is talking about, adding that 'things are happening'. He failed to show up on one Friday after a DOJ memo was released that said Epstein had died by suicide and that no other people named in the files would be charged. It also said there was no 'Epstein client list'. The following Monday, officials were starting to squirm and feared that Bongino would be a no-show yet again, but he arrived in the office a few hours later than expected. It was reported at the time that Trump was furious that one of his hand-picked appointees would be so publicly against him. A source inside the DOJ told Daily Mail that Bongino was ready to stand down if Attorney General Pam Bondi didn't. The fallout of that memo continues, with the Wall Street Journal reporting that Bondi told Trump in May that his name appeared in the Epstein files. Bondi also allegedly acknowledged that the administration should withhold the files due to them containing images of child sexual abuse. The president associated with Epstein and British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell in the 1980s and 1990s. Maxwell was questioned this week by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. She is serving 20 years behind bars for his involvement in Epstein's crimes. The 63-year-old made it clear earlier this month that she was willing to speak in front of Congress about the case. Trump has not been implicated in any crimes and just because a name appears in the files does not mean imply they were involved in Epstein's child sex trafficking. Many believe Maxwell appears to be angling for a pardon from President Donald Trump after she 'didn't hold back' during questioning. Trump refused to rule out invoking his presidential pardon powers for Maxwell saying: 'I'm allowed to do it, but it's something I haven't thought about.'

Major broadcaster is slammed for calling Ghislaine Maxwell a VICTIM

Newsmax Anchor Greg Kelly has been ridiculed after saying he believes Ghislaine Maxwell 'might be a victim'. Speaking on Greg Kelly Reports the longtime Trump loyalist portrayed Maxwell as a sympathetic figure, w hile discussing the crisis around the Jeffrey Epstein files, despite her conviction on child sex trafficking and exploitation. Kelly was talking about Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche two-day meeting with Maxwell to discuss the case. '[Maxwell] has also been subpoenaed by the oversight committee, I think this is great. I do have a feeling that she just might be a victim, she just might be,' Kelly said. 'There was a rush to judgement there was a lot of chaos there for a while, granted she hung out with Jeffrey Epstein, and I know that's apparently not good.' Maxwell is serving 20 years behind bars on child sex trafficking charges for her role in helping Epstein exploit and abuse multiple minors over the course of a decade. Epstein's victims alleged they were procured by Maxwell and passed around his billionaire friends and associates who regularly visited his homes, which included his private island. He was found dead in his cell from an apparent suicide while awaiting trial. Kelly's remarks have been circulated on social media where they were roundly slammed. Ghislaine Maxwell is serving 20 years behind bars on child sex trafficking charges for her role in helping Epstein procure victims One person commented: 'Just when you don't think they can be more depraved then they prove you wrong.' Maxwell reached out to the Department of Justice to set up the meetings with Blanche, ABC News reported. She apparently requested what's known as 'proffer immunity' so that anything she revealed couldn't be used against her at a later date. It is provided to people under investigation or facing charges to determine the value of a possible witness. Maxwell has already been tried and convicted. Maxwell's lawyer David Oscar Markus said after her questioning: 'There have been no asks and no promises.' Many believe Maxwell appears to be angling for a pardon from President Donald Trump after she 'didn't hold back' during questioning. She completed a second day of interviews with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on Friday afternoon. Markus claimed that his client spoke with Blanche about '100 different people' in relation to Epstein's alleged child sex trafficking ring. He also said Maxwell is being used as the 'scapegoat' in the entire Epstein case and has been 'treated unfairly for the past five years '. Her attorney said that they had not put in a formal request with the White House for a pardon for Maxwell after the conclusion of the second day of questioning. But Markus did not rule out taking that action in the future, saying 'things are happening so quickly.' 'The president said earlier he has the power to do so, we hope he exercises that power in the right way,' he said of a potential commutation. Trump refused to rule out invoking his presidential pardon powers for Maxwell saying: 'I'm allowed to do it, but it's something I haven't thought about.' CNN's Maggie Haberman appeared on Friday night's The Source with Kaitlan Collins stating that if Trump did so, he would 'infuriate the MAGA base'.
