False Report Against Buttigieg Drops | US News

A woman who falsely reported that Pete Buttigieg was abusing his children in Michigan has been cleared of charges by Indiana prosecutors, who cited her history of alcohol abuse and mental health issues—including hallucinations—as reasons for the dismissal. The incident, triggered by an anonymous tip, led to Buttigieg being separated from his young twins during a tense investigation he described as the “ugliest thing” of his public career. The woman, now back in Alabama after treatment, previously had legal troubles including a domestic violence arrest with a BAC over .32. Michigan’s AG office is still investigating whether authorities mishandled the tip and unnecessarily disrupted the family. Buttigieg’s team remains silent on the prosecutor’s decision but continues to demand accountability from Michigan officials.
