CIA Drug Trafficking Allegations
Committee members heard testimony concerning allegations that the

Central Intelligence Agency facilitated the introduction and spread

of crack cocaine in U.S. urban areas in order to fund Contra

activities in Nicaragua. Representative Millender-McDonald

testified that the report by the CIA Inspector-General was incorrect

and that the committee must pursue its own investigation of the

matter to uncover those responsible for this activity.

Inspector-General Hitz outlined his office’s report which finds no

evidence of any links between the CIA and drug traffickers in Central

America.
