Secret Service Leadership Allegedly Pressured to Destroy Cocaine Evidence in White House

Former Director Kimberly Cheatle reportedly pushed to dispose of the evidence, leading to internal conflict and a halted investigation.

A bag of cocaine was discovered in the White House on July 2, 2023, sparking internal debates within the Secret Service.
Sources claim Cheatle and other top officials pressured the Forensics Services Division to destroy the evidence.
The Uniformed Division and Forensics Services resisted, resulting in the evidence being preserved.
The FBI's analysis found partial DNA matches but did not identify a specific individual.
Cheatle resigned on July 23, 2024, following intense scrutiny and the fallout from a separate security failure.
