A security expert who was part of the Secret Service for more than two decades questioned the way in which the cocaine recently found in the White House was investigated and opined that someone is preventing the whole truth from coming out.
Former supervisory special agent Charles Marino finds it strange that the agency closed the investigation without identifying any suspects, noting that the president's official residence is "one of the most secure buildings in the world."
Marino told Just the News that Secret Service agents "are extremely intelligent, dedicated and exceptional criminal investigators," which is why he believes they are perfectly capable of discovering how the cocaine got into the White House.
The former agent emphasized that he does not believe the cocaine remained in the West Wing for a long time due to the security and control measures in place. According to Marino, having a designated time frame facilitates the investigation, noting that during that period, between 500 and 600 people may have entered the residence, and they should be interrogated as suspects.

"It could have been a staff member or a family member. Look, when you don't find a suspect, that means that all 500-600 people that popped up during this timeframe all remain suspects, doesn't it? So if that's the case, how are you not interviewing people? I want to see the investigation be handled the way it deserves to be handled," he explained.
Marino said that what he believes is occurring is that there is someone who "is stopping this from being thoroughly investigated," While he stressed that the Secret Service should make an independent agency, he said that the way the investigation was handled gives the impression that there was political influence in the case.
