Fake CPS Report Shakes Buttigieg Family
from Indianapolis News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and his husband Chasten faced a terrifying ordeal after a fake CPS report claimed their four-year-old twins were in danger — alleging Buttigieg confessed to crimes in a story concocted by an anonymous caller. Police and CPS workers showed up at their Michigan home, leaving the family in shock during what Buttigieg called some of his darkest hours. The claim, rooted in a fabricated tale involving a town in Alabama he’s never visited, was dismissed as politically motivated. Forensic interviews with the children found no red flags, and the allegation was officially unsubstantiated — but the emotional toll on the family remains profound, highlighting how protective systems can be weaponized by malicious hoaxes.
