New details emerge in West Wing mystery as lab test CONFIRMS white powder was illegal drug
Secondary lab testing found that the white powder substance found at the White House is cocaine as Secret Service continues to hunt down who brought the dime-sized bag of illicit drugs onto the premises.
U.S. Secret Service declined to comment on the ongoing investigation to DailyMail.com on Wednesday, but doubled-down that the white powder substance was found in a ‘work area within the West Wing’ of the White House.
The substance was discovered in a small, zippered bag in a storage facility area of the West Wing. The timeline, however, is blurry – as it’s unclear how long the bag and its contents were at the White House.
A source familiar with the investigation said Tuesday that considering the substance was found in a highly trafficked area of the White House, it could be difficult to track down the culprit responsible for bringing it into the White House.
Some Republican lawmakers and conservative trolls immediately suggested that Biden’s addict son Hunter, 52, was the source.
A uniformed Secret Service agent found a white powder substance on Sunday evening. Preliminary testing confirmed it was cocaine. The discovery led to an evacuation of the White House – President Joe Biden was not on premise at the time.
