According to the latest reports, the United States Secret Services has now confirmed that it did, in fact, ‘dispose’ of the cocaine that was discovered last year at the White House. The revelation came in response to reports of internal disagreements among its handlings. Last year in the month of July, cocaine was allegedly found on the White House premises.
Joe Biden’s Children’s Suspected Involvement
Secret Service spokesperson, Anthony Gugleilmi in a huge development, has confirmed that the evidence backing the disclosure of cocaine at the White House was destroyed according to established retention policies. As per reports, US President Joe Biden’s children Hunter Biden and Ashley Biden, have dealt with cocaine issues in the past, which has fueled the controversies and the speculation of their involvement in the drug found at the White House last year.
Secret Service Closed Investigation Just After 11 Days
The cocaine was found on July 2, 2023, near the Situation Room in a locker reserved for personal items. The drug reportedly had a partial DNA match in the national database. Upon this shocking disclosure, the Secret Service closed its investigation just eleven days later and did not interview any potential suspects. This led to growing speculation around the handling of the case, along with the possible involvement of the Biden family members.
Kimberly Cheatle’s Repeated Attempts To Destroy Evidence
Reports have also suggested that President Joe Biden’s then Secret Service Director, Kimberly Cheatle wanted to destroy the evidence backing the drug. However, she faced resistance from within the agency. Reportedly, Kimberly Cheatle had been frustrated after her requests to dispose of the drug were consistently being opposed by the subordinates, as they cited protocols requiring evidence to be retained for seven years. The New York Post reported that Cheatle was really ‘pissed off’ after her instructions were not followed.
Concerns Over Agency’s Procedures
Sources have suggested that either Kimberly Cheatle herself or someone associated with her had contacted Matt White, the agency’s forensics division vault supervisor, and requested the disposal of the evidence of the drug. The decision to keep the evidence was upheld by Glenn Davis, the Secret Service Forensics division chief, along with the Uniformed Division acting chief Richard Macauley. The Secret Service’s closure of the case just after eleven days, along with attempts to dispose of the evidence, has raised questions about the agency’s handling of cases and procedures.
