A former senior Department of Energy (DOE) official has been arrested as a “fugitive from justice.”
Sam Brinton, who is non-binary and previously the deputy assistant secretary of the Office of Spent Fuel and Waste Disposition, was arrested Wednesday night.
The Daily Wire first reported the arrest, citing police records in Montgomery County, Maryland.
Shiera Goff, a Montgomery County Police Department spokesperson, told Fox News Digital, “Montgomery County Police assisted in the arrest of Sam Brinton.”
“The Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police are lead on this,” the spokesperson continued, adding, “Brinton was arrested at approximately 10 p.m. last night in their home on College Parkway.”
Finally, Goff said, “They are being held in the Montgomery County Central Processing Unit on a no-bond status as they await an extradition hearing. That’s all of the information we have on our end.”
Brinton’s stint at the DOE ended amid charges of grand larceny. Brinton served in that capacity from June to December 2022.
Brinton was slapped with two separate charges for stealing luggage.
The first incident occurred in September in the Minneapolis St. Paul Airport (MSP) and involved a $2,325 Vera Bradley suitcase.
