The subpoena was issued earlier this month from the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California in Los Angeles. Federal agents visited Indianapolis for several days this month, according to two people with knowledge of the investigation, and interviewed multiple people who were close to Irsay over the final years of his life. These people spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to publicly discuss the investigation.

A spokeswoman for the FBI’s field office in Los Angeles did not immediately reply to a request for comment Thursday. The Beverly Hills Police Department, which initially investigated Irsay’s death, has not been contacted by the FBI, a department spokesman said.

Colts Chief Legal Officer Dan Emerson, in a phone interview Thursday, said the team is aware of the investigation but has not been served with a subpoena or contacted by the FBI.

“I do understand that there have been some subpoenas provided, but not to me, the Colts or any of our current employees,” said Emerson, who declined to comment further.
