News and Trends
In April, eight Secret Service agents were fired or forced to resign following their sex-filled romp at a hotel in Colombia with as many as 20 women, including some prostitutes, while on an official mission to protect President Obama. Matters only got worse in the ensuing weeks, when some of the fired agents claimed that their actions were common practice in the Secret Service, so much so that some employees allegedly referred to the organization as the “Secret Circus” when large groups of agents arrived in a town. Mark Sullivan, the director of the Secret Service, said he was “deeply disappointed” and apologized for the agents’ misconduct. Sullivan has publicly maintained that the Colombian incident was an isolated one, but according to ABC News, an investigation by the Department of Homeland Security turned up allegations of similar misconduct in China and Romania.
