FBI to deliver ‘final report’ on missing scientists ‘shortly’ amid growing scrutiny

The FBI is preparing a final report on at least a dozen cases involving missing or deceased scientists and defense-linked personnel, following a White House request to assess potential connections. FBI Director Kash Patel emphasized the bureau is analyzing state-level investigations but downplayed claims of a broad conspiracy, while President Donald Trump and the White House acknowledged ongoing efforts to determine if the incidents are linked.
