Roger Stone Indicates Mueller's Thugs Mistreated His Wife, Was Afraid They'd Shoot Her The first casualty in the FBI raid on Roger Stone’s Florida home was humanity, Stone said Monday. The longtime Donald Trump acquaintance was arrested Friday in an FBI raid on his home as part of special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation into allegations that President Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign colluded with Russia. Stone said that during the arrest, which he called a “surreal experience,” his greatest fear was for his wife. He said at the time agents pounded on the door he was “sleeping with my wife who is hearing-impaired, virtually deaf.” After he was handcuffed out in the street in front of his home, he said, heavily armed agents went back to get his wife, Nydia. He said he feared that his wife could be shot for not complying with an order because of the extent of her hearing disability. “They brought my wife out, in her nightgown, also in bare feet, to stand next to me,” he said. “I was told to come out with hands up, which I did,” noting he was never read his rights. “They want to intimidate me. And they want to poison the jury pool. They treated me like El Chapo,” Stone said, referring to the Mexican drug kingpin Joaquin Guzman. “They used fewer men to take down Pablo Escobar or bin Laden. So by treating me like a drug kingpin, they sent a message to potential jurors that I’m public enemy number one.”
