Was it Hunter with the cocaine in the cabinet room? Ashley with the cocaine in the Oval Office? Or was it a stranger with access to the White House reference library? The mystery of the cocaine found in the White House over the July 4, 2023, holiday was closed for lack of evidence almost as soon as it began.
Having been on the Biden's Secret Service detail, Cheatle probably knew what it was.
The story exploded into the media as gowned-up people in hazmat bunny suits combed the White House.
For Our VIPS: Here Are Some Questions the Secret Service Should Have to Answer It was going to be tough to put this genie back in the bottle.
The Secret Service officer who found the cocaine was being leaned on by the brass to drop the case, but he sent it to the FBI for testing.
It came back with a "Partial hit": Several sources, citing private statements by a special agent in the Forensics Services Division who supervised the vault containing the cocaine evidence, said the agency ran the DNA material against national criminal databases and "Got a partial hit." The term "Partial hit" is vague in this context, but in forensics lingo usually means law enforcement found DNA matching a blood relative of a finite pool of people.
"The Congressional oversight committees need to put White under oath and confirm the 'partial hit,'" a source told RCP. "Then the FBI needs to explain who the partial hit was against, then determine what blood family member has ties to the White House or what person matching the partial hit was present at the White House that weekend." Cheatle at some point called the evidence vault supervisor, Matt White, and tried to persuade him to destroy the evidence that protocol dictates be kept for seven years.
