summary: "White revealed that the original CHP report on the 'Queen's accident' was sent to the State Attorney General's office (John Van de Kamp), who told his assistant to 'discard' it."
---
[[James White]] was an Assistant [[United States Attorney|U.S. Attorney]] in Fresno. He ordered [[Dr. Arthur Dahlem]]'s files seized to prove [[Roderick Sinclair]]'s alleged drug use in connection with the "[[Queen's accident]]." However, [[United States District Court|U.S. District Court]] Judge [[Robert E. Coyle]] ordered White to "drop the criminal investigation," stating Sinclair's drug problem was not relevant and drug records could not be used in court.[^1]
White revealed that the original [[California Highway Patrol|CHP]] report on the "[[Queen's accident]]" was sent to the State Attorney General's office ([[John Van de Kamp]]), who told his assistant to "discard" it. [[Bruce Eckerson]], the Mariposa County District Attorney, was then appointed to take charge of the investigation and submit a new report. White noted that all of the "crack M.A.I.T.S. team" [[California Highway Patrol|CHP]] officers involved in the original investigation either resigned or were transferred or fired. The [[California Highway Patrol|CHP]] Commander and Deputy Commander who supervised the M.A.I.T.S. investigation also resigned, as did White himself after the cover-up.[^1]
