Liberty Safe, one of America’s top-rated gun safe manufacturers, faces extreme backlash for providing the FBI an access code to a safe owned by an individual who attended January 6th.

Nathan Hughes, the man arrested at gun point, was raided by federal agents last week.

Hughes is a friend of the Hodge twins, who first broke the news about Liberty Safe complying with the FBI’s request for the access code to get into his safe.

“Last week, a friend of ours was raided by the feds over J6, his name is Nathan Hughes and he’s from Fayetteville, Arkansas. Nate was raided by the FBI and arrested at gun point. His girlfriend (who just had a miscarriage) was held at gun point and put in handcuffs. The FBI turned off his security cameras, unplugged his internet, and flipped his house upside down in a search. The feds called the manufacturer of his Liberty Gun Safe and got the passcode to get into it too. All for protesting at the Capitol over 2 1/2 years ago,” the Hodge twins wrote.

“He is being charged with crimes related to January 6th. He didn’t assault anyone and he didn’t vandalize anything. He is being labeled a domestic terrorist and a traitor to his country by woke leftists and the media,” they added.

“On August 30, 2023, Liberty Safe was contacted by the FBI requesting the access code to the safe of an individual whom they had a warrant to search their property. Our company protocol is to provide access codes to law enforcement if a warrant grants them access to a property. After receiving the request, we received proof of the valid warrant, and only then did we provide them with an access code. Liberty Safe had no knowledge of any of the details surrounding the investigation at the time,” Liberty Safe said in a statement.

“Liberty Safe is devoted to protecting the personal property and 2nd Amendment rights of our customers and has repeatedly denied requests for access codes without a warrant in the past. We do not give out combinations without proper legal documentation being provided by authorities.”

Read the full statement:

What’s the point of purchasing a safe from a manufacturer when they’ll hand over the combination to federal agents waiving a bogus warrant to violate your rights?

Also, why does the manufacturer have your access code to begin with?

Liberty Safe received enormous criticism after issuing its statement.

The Post Millennial reports:

Liberty Safe advertises itself as “America’s #1 heavy-duty home and gun safe manufacturer.” They claim that more than two million homeowners “have found the peace of mind” by storing their valuables and weapons in a Liberty Safe in their homes. They tout their “98% customer satisfaction rating.”

Yet when it comes to giving access to that safe to law enforcement, Liberty Safe is right on board. Customers will find that in the event they are served with a search warrant for their home, Liberty Safe will aid law enforcement in getting that safe open. This also means that they have access to the codes that open their customers’ safes.

Cont. from The Post Millennial:

Liberty Safe is under no legal obligation to comply with a search warrant served to one of their customers. Liberty Safe was not subjected to a search warrant, per their post, they were shown a search warrant for another individual and decided to help the FBI conduct that search by providing information that would aid the search.

There is absolutely no reason they should comply at all. In the event that an individual is served with a search warrant for their home or property, that warrant is entirely between law enforcement and that individual.

If the warrant is for property that may be contained within a safe of the size the individual possesses, law enforcement can ask for access to that safe. The owner can provide that access. In the event that the accused declines, law enforcement is free to attempt to break into that safe.
