The New York Post reported that Vartanians is the wife of Mehrzad Asadi Eidivand, a 40-year-old illegal immigrant from Iran.
The Post noted that Vartanians allegedly refused to allow ICE to enter their home and “told them to come back with a warrant before she called local cops on them.”
The agents left and were tipped off to a number of guns in the house. They returned the next day with a search warrant and found “a loaded gun on the kitchen counter and another on a nightstand.”
The Arizona Republic noted that Eidivand “was accused in U.S. District Court of possessing weapons while not lawfully being present in the United States, a felony.” Vartanians stands accused of making threats against federal officers.
The Republic referenced a recorded 911 call on which Vartanians allegedly made threats.
Vartanians and Eidivand will be back in court on July 9, 2025.
