My girlfriend was busted in a drug sting last week, and they busted her at my apartment when I was out of town.
Long story short, I have to get the door fixed before my wife comes back next week.
Does the FBI have some sort of federal funding to fix damages? I was not arrested or part of the sting.
Also, my girlfriend is overweight.
Thanks

I'm sorry, I know that you're going through a lot right now. But your story really really made me laugh.
Your overweighted girlfriend was busted at your home while you and your wife were away. You cheat your wife with an overweighted girl and now you have to fix the door (and try to make it so she can't tell) and keep everyone around from talking about the sting.
Man, the FBI paying to fix your door is the smallest of your problems...
Anyway, I'm afraid there's not much you can do about it. Government employees has Sovereign immunity, granted by the eleventh amendment. It's not clear and has been debated many times. However, there are precedents of Supreme court rulings interpreting the 11th as Sovereign immunity for government employees.
The federal government waived it partially. You may check the Federal Tort Claims act which waives the immunity if a tortious (a civil wrong) act of a federal employee causes damage. It seems to be your case.
There's also the Tucker act but it applies only on cases where the government is party on a contract.

Did the door get busted when the FBI was coming in or when they were hauling your overweight girlfriend out and trying to get her through the door? If your girlfriend busted the door on the way out, I think she owes you a new door.

NO!!! Honestly, I think you deserve what you got and then some. Lets hope your wife isn't good friends with the FBI and they tell her about the overweight girlfriend....Oh but wait, that actually might be a good thing

OK... You have a wife and a girlfriend who's overwight... Anyway, I don't think they owe you anything. Since, I deem that your girlfriend entered your house with your knowledge and permission, and the FBI simply did their job of breaking down the door when she refused to open it. So, it's your responsibility cause your the one who gave her permission to gain access in your apartment. Now, if you didn't give her permission, then she's the one who owes you.

Did the FBI introduce you to your girlfriend, which ultimately led her to your apartment where your door was an unfortunate causalty in her arrest?
Don't date dope culture flunkies if you don't want busted apartment doors. What could be more simple?

yes, what does a door cost? let's say a grand. here is what you do...hire a good lawyer for 5 thousand dollars and make an agreement not to sue the government if they agree not to arrest you for harboring a criminal. you know what they say? the best sex i ever had was not with my needle dick boyfriend but the hot lesbo action in jail

Nope, unless you can prove they did something wrong.
Sorry, just get some wood screws, wood glue and some spackle and you should be alright.
Most door frames and held together by little nails, spend 20 minutes and you can fix it and it will be stronger.

Nope, your home was harboring a criminal and the FBI have the right to break down any barriers to get that fugitive.

No. They would argue that your girlfriend owes you for the door, since she was there and didn't tell you she was being pursued federally.
