The Republicans use cocaine documents of the Governor of Maine Janet Mills

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles!

More than three decades after the Maine Democratic Governor, Janet Mills, avoided publishing around 6,000 pages of files concerning the federal survey on his alleged consumption of cocaine, the National Republican Senate Committee (NRSC) is looking for these same documents.

The NRSC submitted a request from the Freedom of Information Act (FoIA) to the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) in April 2025, trying to publish the files relating to its alleged trial of cocaine consumption in the midst of suspicion that the Democrats recruited it to jump in the race for the State.

While Nara initially declared to the NRSC that they would examine the request, they then claimed that 3,000 pages of the files were exposed to the exemption from Foia, which preserves the secret of the testimony of the Grand Jury.

The NRSC now uses the refusal of these files, citing the public interest in the case. Fox News Digital reported last month on the Newly determined memo This contradicts the assertion of Mills according to which an investigation into his alleged consumption of cocaine was politically motivated.

Fox News Digital learned that around 3 195 documents which did not fall under the Foia exemption required a waiting time of 11 years to treat.

However, in 1992, Mills submitted Request foia for the same documents.

An article from the Ellsworth American newspaper reported that Mills had received an answer that Nara was “too busy” to process her request at the time.

When asked if she would put the documents accessible to the public if she received them, Mills said at the point of sale: “I should first see what was.”

Fox News Digital did not find a Mills file which publishes these documents, and Fox News Digital contacted the Mill office but did not receive an answer.

At the beginning of 1990, the office of the American prosecutor in Maine, the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and the Office for the application of intergovernmental drugs (Bide) of Maine investigated Mills, then a district prosecutor in office in Maine, after a drug suspect accused him of consuming cocaine.

The investigation was finally abandoned without depositing charges. Mills argued that the investigation had never had a merit and that it was politically targeted for its democratic affiliation and its Bide criticism. In 1990, she and two other Maine district prosecutors criticized the belly for inflating the number of arrests thanks to an excessive application of low -level drug delinquents.

“It’s frightening,” Mills told the Portland Press Herald In November 1991. “Maine apparently had a secret police force who can ruin the reputation of anyone who opposed it.”

A memorandum of March 1995 from the Office of Professional Responsibility of the US Ministry of Justice addressed to the Deputy Prosecutor General – Merrick Garland was the deputy prosecutor General Main associate – and found by Fox News Digital, refutes the complaint of Mills. He revealed that there was no fault of the federal or state authorities investigating his case.

According to the MEMO of the DoJ, WCSH-TV reported in December 1990 that Mills were the subject of a survey by a large federal jury for drug use, citing sources of application of the law. Mills then continued this journalist for defamation and slander. The report also prompted the Mill lawyer to demand an investigation by the Grand Jury, arguing that “the press has received leaks from managers of the application of the laws of the bidder”.

The results of the defamation and slander costume are no longer available. The case file has shown that the files had been eliminated in 2015 in accordance with the policy. However, a Article 1991 Lewiston Sun-Journal seems to indicate that the effort to “put an end to the rumors of drug probe” was expelled by a judge.

Earlier this month, Mills were faced with Washington, DC, about its alleged consumption of cocaine, Fox News Digital exclusively reportedIn an exchange where she said: “What is the F —?” When asked if “sniff cocaine at work” is a “human right”.

The longtime republican senator Susan Collins is to be re -elected in 2026, and with the mandate of the Mills Limited government next year, she would be a competitive democratic candidate to challenge Collins.

Mills indicated in April That she had not “planned to present herself for another office”, but admitted that “things are changing from week to week, from month to month”, leaving the door open to a potential Senate offer.
