🇺🇸 Articles claim White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was involved in a drunk-driving accident, but police in Washington said they have no report of such an incident

A narrative shared across blogs and social media alleges that White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre was involved in a drunk-driving accident that has since been covered up. This is; police in Washington confirmed they have received no report of any such incident, pictures used to illustrate the online claim are entirely unrelated, and the White House told AFP the story is false.

The article claims that on March 26, US President Joe Biden’s press secretary “rear-ended another vehicle while under the influence of alcohol.” It further claims that Jean-Pierre was seen “slurring her speech and having difficulty standing up straight,” but that the police in Washington did not arrest her or release body-camera footage.
