White House Cocaine Investigation Leads to Dead-End, But Secret Service Has a Theory

The Secret Service has now concluded its investigation about the small bag of cocaine found at the White House and have been unable to find a suspect.

Agents and investigators combed through the White House security systems in their effort to find the person who brought cocaine into the White House and even indexed "several hundreds individuals" who entered the West Wing in the days leading up to the discovery of the cocaine. However, even after days of investigation and the help of an FBI lab, they were not able to find anybody suspicious.

The Secret Service stated that the bag of cocaine had "insufficient DNA" to match with anybody, nor has the FBI lab found any fingerprints.

"Therefore, the Secret Service is not able to compare evidence against the known pool of individuals," said the agency's statement.

In addition, investigators were also unable to "identify the particular moment or day when the baggie was left inside the West Wing cubby," with the agency admitting that "There was no surveillance video footage found that provided investigative leads or any other means for investigators to identify who may have deposited the found substance in this area."

There were hundreds of people who visit the West Wing every day, and a source familiar with the investigation told CNN that there is a leading theory regarding who left cocaine at a White House cubby, though, and said that it might be a visitor.

Visitors often visit the West Wing, though they are often asked to leave their phones inside the cubbies where the baggie of cocaine was found.

Republicans Blamed Hunter Biden for White House Cocaine

Presidential son Hunter Biden is a recovering drug addict who has not been shy about admitting to his substance abuse. As expected, as soon as it was found out that the white powder found at the White House was cocaine, they immediately pointed their fingers at the first son.

When the investigation was inconclusive, Republicans were outraged, with Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) reportedly storming out of the Secret Service briefing.

According to The Daily Beast, Republicans only intensified their finger-painting after White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre told a New York Post reporter, "They [the Biden family] were not here on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or Monday, so to ask that question is incredibly irresponsible."

Without any evidence that it was Hunter Biden, Republicans and right-wing media continued to insinuate that it was the presidential son who brought the substance into the White House, with Marjorie Taylor Greene going as far as calling for drug tests on all visitors.

Joe Biden and his family were all in Camp David when the White House cocaine was discovered.

White House Cocaine Underwent Extensive Testing

When the bag of cocaine was first found, many were afraid that the substance was something much more sinister. It was immediately sent for a secondary, more sensitive lab analysis at the Department of Homeland Security's National Biodefense Analysis and Countermeasures Center which found that the baggie did not have any biothreats and was just merely a bag of cocaine.

However, it did undergo even more tests, including advanced fingerprint and DNA work at the FBI's crime laboratory, according to the Associated Press.
