>“But… if we happen to run into her on the street, we’re gonna be asking her some questions without you present.”

Impressive for a LEO to state out loud he doesn't care about rights and due process. Like maybe he thinks he's above the law.

This is a classic psyops move on their part.

Get the person thinking they're not safe anywhere, so they stop going out, stop being mobile and stick to a more confined area. Once they've determined where she is, it makes it a lot easier to get in contact with her.

If she's smart, she start moving more frequently, and travel in states where they don't have field offices, avoid air travel and create a constantly moving target for the FBI officers trying to nail her down.

I don't think that's practical. It would cause her a lot of stress (not to mention cost quite some money) and sooner or later wear her out.

It also means that the FBI has reached their goal of intimidating her, since she is changing her behavior because of them (assuming that is their goal of course).

Wow, what a place to live in.

Regular citizens not charged with any crime having to keep moving to hide from LEO.
