The Houston Police Department has referred its investigation of a former
Biden administration official charged in two separate luggage thefts to
the FBI, Fox News Digital has learned.
The case centers around Houston-based Tanzanian fashion designer Asya
Khamsin, who alleged earlier this month that clothing worn by former
Department of Energy (DOE) official Sam Brinton had been contained in her
luggage that she reported missing on March 9, 2018, at Ronald Reagan
Washington National Airport.
Khamsin, who designs her own clothing line, said she recently saw a report
that Brinton had been charged with stealing pieces of luggage at two
separate airports and noticed that he appeared to be wearing her clothes
in several photos. Khamsin said she had packed the same clothes in a bag
that vanished back in 2018.
After the apparent theft of her bag, Khamsin and her husband filed a
report with the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority Police
Department. The couple also filed a claim with Delta Air Lines, which she
had used to travel from Houston to Washington, D.C. The case was never
solved.

REPORT
After seeing her clothing that resembled the ones in her lost bag in the
recent media reports about Brinton, Khamsin filed a complaint with the
Houston Police Department in December.
Houston police told Fox News Digital on Monday that personnel from the
department’s Criminal Investigation Division has met with FBI personnel at
the airport regarding the luggage theft case.
As of publishing time, Brinton has not been charged with any crime related
to Khamsin’s claims.
Minnesota prosecutors charged Brinton in October with stealing a suitcase
worth $2,325 from a Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport baggage
carousel in September. Brinton faces up to five years in prison for the
alleged crime and was released without bail following a court hearing last
week.
Then in December, Nevada prosecutors charged Brinton with grand larceny of
an item valued between $1,200 and $5,000. Brinton was accused of stealing
a suitcase worth around $3,670 on July 6 at Harry Reid International
Airport in Las Vegas. Brinton was released after a judge set bail in the
case at $15,000 and ordered Brinton to "stay out of trouble."
Fox News Digital has reached out to Brinton’s lawyer for comment.
