FBI Director Kash Patel confirms investigation into the mysterious deaths and disappearances of nearly a dozen top-secret scientists tied to the Department of Energy. Trump recently held a meeting on the investigation.
Patel:
"These missing and killed scientists and former professional members of the Department of Energy vary in wide range, and we're working most importantly with our state and local partners who have the jurisdiction on each of these cases, whether they be a homicide or a missing person's case, they have the evidence."

"And if there's any connections that lead to nefarious conduct or conspiracy, this FBI will make the appropriate arrest."
