UPDATE: Questions Emerge About Pete Buttigieg’s Story of Being Swatted and Separated From His Children by Child Protective Services
Pete Buttigieg’s harrowing swatting story from last week is now coming under scrutiny, suggesting he may not be telling the entire truth.
As TGP’s Jordan Conradson reported, Buttigieg claims he was swatted this week by Child Protective Service agents and separated from his four-year-old twins.
Buttigieg ran to Substack to write a column about the incident.
Describing himself as “bewildered and troubled,” Buttigieg said that “the CPS worker told me something that made my stomach turn: I was not to be alone around the children, at least until the interview took place the next day.”
After a “sleepless night,” he says, the officers told him that an anonymous tipster told police that he had spoken to a woman. She said that Buttigieg had “committed unspeakable violent crimes, and the caller believed my children were still at risk.”
“After the officer spoke, the CPS worker likewise indicated she had not found anything to substantiate the allegation, though her process would take a bit longer to be formally completed. I no longer needed to avoid being around my children unsupervised. Chasten was invited to come back downstairs and hear the same information that had just been shared with me. Then, per standard procedure, she verified that there was adequate food in our kitchen and asked to take a look at the kids’ bedroom,” Buttigieg wrote.
But questions are emerging that suggest Buttigieg might be embellishing at least part of his story, particularly the part about CPS separating him from his children.
One X user who said he has dealt with cases like Buttigieg’s said the former transportation secretary was lying. He stated that CPS does NOT separate someone from children over unsubstantiated accusations.
To him, this suggested something more sinister was at play.
