A Former NYPD officer, Liza Porpiglia posted the following message on her Facebook page.
“Press Secretary KJP had a drunk driving car accident last night. They quickly whisked her away.”
One commenter indicated that while covering one of the Press Secretary’s news conferences, the press was instructed not to question Karine Jean-Pierre about her alleged drunk driving accident.
Canyon News attempted to reach the Washington DC Sheriff’s Department through their portal since the Inmate Roster is not readily available to the public on their website. There has been no response to the inquiry.
