Cocaine found at White House's West Wing; triggers investigation
On Sunday, July 3, 2023, Secret Service officers found a white powder substance suspected to be cocaine in a work area in the West Wing of the White House. The substance was found in a bathroom near the Oval Office. The White House complex was closed as a precaution while the fire department and law enforcement investigated the substance. The fire department determined that the substance was non-hazardous, but it later tested positive for cocaine.
The Secret Service is currently investigating how the cocaine came to be in the White House. President Joe Biden and his family were away at the Camp David residence when the substance was found. The White House has said that there is no indication that any White House staff or visitors were involved in the discovery of the cocaine.
The discovery of cocaine at the White House is a serious matter. Cocaine is a Schedule II drug under the Controlled Substances Act, meaning it has a high potential for abuse. The White House is a secure facility, and the presence of cocaine there raises questions about security and safety.
The Secret Service is expected to release more information about the investigation in the coming days.
