Charles McCullough, the former U.S. Intelligence Community Inspector General, is an American law enforcement and intelligence official. In 2023, McCullough represented David Grusch, a former U.S. Air Force officer and intelligence official who has made significant claims regarding unidentified aerial phenomena (UAP). McCullough's involvement as Grusch's attorney underscores the serious nature of these allegations and the legal complexities involved in whistleblowing within the intelligence community. His previous experience as the Intelligence Community Inspector General positions him uniquely to navigate the legal and procedural challenges associated with such disclosures. The collaboration between McCullough and Grusch has brought significant attention to the topic of UAPs, prompting discussions about government transparency and the potential existence of non-human intelligence. Their efforts have contributed to a broader public discourse on the subject, leading to increased calls for declassification and investigation into UAP-related information.
