investigation into how county records -- county contracts have been administered under the johnson administration and apparently they have found that both mr. johnson and his wife leslie have been involved in some type of shady business. that's what federal officials are saying. tampering of witnesses and evidence, obstruction and falsification of evidence and destruction of possible evidence. investigators have been looking at the evidence. >> thank you for laying out that information. i know there is going to be some additional information coming outs in a press conference in a short time. thank you. we also want to go now live to scott broom at the johnson's home in mitchellville where more on the police activity that is still going on at this hour. scott. >> reporter: well, federal agents just wrapped it up here just seconds ago leaving. nine agents with at least 13

boxes of evidence. evidence that included clothing according to the affidavits that have come out in court. we have been told that they seized $80,000 from leslie johnson's underwear in this case and there was discussion about flushing a check down the toilet. this after johnson and his wife left their home in handcuffs this morning. county executive jack johnson with a sport coat over his shoulders to hide the handcuffs is taken away by federal investigators. johnson looked away from the camera and did not respond to shouted questions. meanwhile a plumber showed up called by investigators he said. >> they are looking for evidence. >> reporter: there was a broken window in front of the home. bystanders could see investigators wearing rubber gloves going through the cushions of a couch. no hints at the scene for what they are looking for but every indication that the search is a

thorough one indeed. >> reporter: neighbors were stunned. one woman was in tears. emotions ranging from disappointment to anger. >> he is our neighbor. they just got arrested. i'm going what happened? is everything okay. we socialize with them and it is shocking. very nice and very kind people. >> so now that the affidavits are out we are beginning to piece some of what we saw today to match with some of the evidence coming out. as i said, johnson has been accused apparently of getting rid of evidence by flushing a $100,000 check down the toilet. presumably that's why the plumber was there. we saw investigators leaving with documents and clothing. and accused of trying to hide $80,000 in his wife's underwear. the federal agents left the

scene and presumably the house will be dark tonight while the johnson's appear in court. reporting live in mitchellville, scott broom, 9 news now. >> scott, thank you. federal agents swept simultaneously into the johnson's home in mitchellville and the office in upper marlboro. bruce leshan has that part of the story. >> reporter: yes, lesli they have lesli, they have been here trying to build the case. the cars of the forget agents are still on either side of the county administration building and we have no idea when they are going to come down. >> i'm sorry, you have to go back downstairs. you cannot be upstairs. >> reporter: prince george's county police officers stopped us at the door of the executive suite of offices. inside, county officials insist work continues. employees are still conducting the county's business even as

federal agents go through the executive's papers and computers. in jack johnson's eight years as county executive there have been numerous allegations of shakedowns. earlier this year a prince george's county developer sued alleging johnson and his allies demanded what amounted to bribes in exchange for a million dollars county lease for a new complex. but law enforcement sources tell us that the allegations that led them to lead he and his wife off in handcuffs involve another development. this one a massive project near the green belt metro station. two years ago federal agents raided county offices questioning the county's relationship to the developer of green belt station. jack johnson has just weeks left in office. but county officials say if he is unable to serve they have a chain of successions. >> if he is incapacitated that

the deputy chief administrative officer would serve as acting. and we are not sure about where he is right now. >> reporter: now, jack johnson may have just weeks left in office but his wife leslie was hoping for four years. she was just elected to county council from district 6. she was supposed to take office on december 6th at noon. >> bruce leshan reporting. thank you. we are expecting a press conference shortly. jack johnson was born in 1949. received a degree in law and served as deputy state attorney for prince george's county from 1987 to 1994. he was the state attorney for

the county. county executive in 2002. he won reelection in 2006 and also generated controversy back in 2005 when he billed the county more than $6000 for a ribbon cutting ceremony. again, we will have more on this case coming up throughout this show and throughout the night. millions of visitors enjoy the smithsonian museum free of charge but that could change if congress gets its way. this is not the first time lawmakers have pushed for admission fees. >> reporter: the national zoo is buzzing with activity on this beautiful fall day. >> hi. >> reporter: families enjoying a free visit but the president's deficit reduction commission wants to cut funding to the smithsonian by a whopping $250 million. commission members say they could make up the difference by

charging admission. $7.50 a head. >> i would do anything to prevent this from happening. >> i don't object to paying admission. >> reporter: but on the other hand. >> i think it would detour some tourism. >> we live outside of baltimore and we chose to come down today because the zoo is free. we would probably go see a zoo closer to us if we had to pay. >> reporter: the 19 museums have been free for more than 100 years. two thirds of the budget is federally funded through taxpayer dollars. a smithsonian spokesperson says this is the sixth time since 1986 that congress has tried to hit taxpayers twice with an admission charge. >> every time the smithsonian decides to remain free because we think it is really important that regardless of your income you can come and visit the museum. >> these are things that are great for families because they are learning things. they have the butter fly exhibits in there and reemphasizes learning. they are going to charge for learning now. that's crazy. >> we just went and saw the

declaration of independence. these are things that governor us literally. it is an inherent right for us. >> they are still in the beginning phases of working through this proposal and it is certainly not a done deal but to put it all in perspective. the museum charges up to $18 for admission. on facebook we asked if you would pay admission to the smithsonian and most of those that responded have said no. but tamara ward said she wouldn't want to but considering the state of the economy and priceless relics that are housed there she would be willing to pay. another woman said she would be willing to pay as long as it is not too much money to get in. sarah says she would rather pay admission than the ridiculous cafeteria prices. become a fan of wusa 9 on facebook and tell us what think. prices at the pump are rising quickly thanks to the

declining value of the u.s. dollar. the national average price of self-serve regular today is $2.87 a gallon. that is up 6 cents from last friday. and 21 cents higher than this time last year. but the rise in gas prices has very little to do with supply and everything to do with the value of the money that is used to pay for it. ever since the federal reserve pumped billions of dollars into the u.s. economy the value of the dollar has declined and price of crude oil has surged on world markets. prices in dc are the highest. averaging $2.94 a gallon. in rockville the average gas price is $2.85 and in tyson's corner gas prices average $2.87. to find the cheapest gas in your neighborhood go to our website, wusa9.com, go to our community in our where you live section. contact us and be part of the wusa9.com team. sky 9 was over the wealthiest counties in america
