The FBI has been investigating Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins for at least 20 months, but the focus of the inquiry remains unclear, the WFAA News 8 reports.

News 8 reported that FBI agents with subpoenas and questions entered Watkins’ courthouse office on July 13, 2011.

One thing is clear, according to News 8: Part of the probe involves a $10,000 campaign donation from the wife of a Dallas dentist.

“They did take copies of several things,” assistant DA Rocky Jones told News 8. “We didn’t know what they took copies of.”

Watkins has already been in hot water of campaign donations.
