Former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle has been out of office for about two weeks now, but the scandals are still breaking.
A report surfaced this week that Cheatle was among leadership that wanted the cocaine found in the White House destroyed.
With every passing day, her reputation gets destroyed more and more.
It’s Gone
When the cocaine was found in the White House, most of us wrongly assumed that the Secret Service would be able to track down the suspect.
After all, the White House is probably the most watched building on the planet.
Yet, with all the technology we have and all the surveillance cameras in the White House, the investigation came up empty.
Well, that is not exactly true.
Reports broke that a partial hit came back on the bag, but that was apparently never pursued, and the cocaine was eventually ordered to be destroyed, which is what this report is focusing on.
RealClearPolitics reported, “Former Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle and others in top agency leadership positions wanted to destroy the cocaine discovered in the White House last summer, but the Secret Service Forensics Services Division and the Uniformed Division stood firm and rejected the push to dispose of the evidence, according to three sources in the Secret Service community.”
Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi responded, “This is false.
“The US Secret Service takes its investigative and protective responsibilities very seriously.
“There are retention policies for criminal investigations, and the Secret Service adhered to those requirements during this case.”
This is rather frustrating because the report, of course, does not name its sources, which seems to be the norm anymore.
If you recall, when the investigation initially wrapped up, Guglielmi had stated, “On July 12, the Secret Service received the FBI’s laboratory results, which did not develop latent fingerprints, and insufficient DNA was present for investigative comparisons.
“Therefore, the Secret Service is not able to compare evidence against the known pool of individuals.
“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.
“Without physical evidence, the investigation will not be able to single out a person of interest from the hundreds of individuals who passed through the vestibule where the cocaine was discovered.”
I am still not buying it.
Something fishy happened here and I have a feeling the Secret Service was complicit in covering it all up.
