EAST, Senior District Judge
(dissenting):
I dissent. It is my belief that the District Court’s appraisal of the prior search warrant as a red flag badge of a criminal investigative purpose upon the so quickly issued administrative summons for additional information is the only logical and rational inference to be drawn. The majorities’ unfounded supposition of “[b]ut if there is, concurrent with the criminal investigation a proper civil investigation, the administrative summons would not be issued to further a solely criminal investigation” is adding pure speculation and conjecture to the record made before the District Court. The District Court should not be faulted for not supposing. I would affirm.
