The Secret Service announced on Thursday that it has concluded its investigation into the discovery of a small packet of cocaine in the White House.
Surprisingly, the agency disclosed that it closed the investigation without conducting any interviews.
According to a spokesperson for the agency, the testing conducted by the Secret Service and the FBI confirmed the presence of cocaine in the packet, but efforts to find usable forensic evidence such as fingerprints or DNA were unsuccessful.
Additionally, the examination of video footage from the area where the baggie was discovered did not provide any conclusive evidence to identify potential suspects.
The footage merely offered a list of approximately 500 staff members and visitors who had accessed the area during a specific weekend earlier in the month, NBC News has reported.
Considering the challenges involved, Secret Service spokesman Anthony Gugliemi stated that interviewing all 500 individuals would strain resources, potentially infringe upon civil liberties, and ultimately be unproductive without supporting physical evidence linking anyone to the drugs.
