Overview
- The FBI announced it is reopening or allocating additional resources to three high-profile cases: the 2023 White House cocaine discovery, the 2022 Dobbs draft opinion leak, and the 2021 Jan. 6 pipe bomb incidents.
- FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino and Director Kash Patel are prioritizing these cases, citing public interest and potential corruption, with weekly updates and public tips being solicited to aid investigations.
- The Secret Service closed its initial investigation into the White House cocaine discovery in 2023, citing a lack of physical evidence, including fingerprints or usable DNA, and surveillance footage gaps.
- The Supreme Court's internal investigation into the Dobbs leak, which revealed a draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, concluded in 2023 without identifying the leaker.
- The 2021 pipe bomb case, involving viable explosives planted near Democratic and Republican headquarters before the Capitol riot, remains unresolved despite extensive efforts and public appeals for information.
