Secret Service personnel sent home from Colombia amid allegations of misconduct

[koalabear]

The Secret Service is investigating allegations of misconduct by agency personnel preparing for President Barack Obama’s arrival at the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, Colombia, including that at least one officer solicited a prostitute, according to media reports.

The Secret Service employees had arrived about a week before Obama touched down and stayed at Cartagena's Hotel Caribe, according to The Associated Press. A hotel employee told the AP that they had been drinking heavily throughout the week. Several reporters and White House staff also had rooms booked at the hotel.

Time to fire all of those involved and maybe the top three people in the agency. Bring in new blood from the FBI.

They were just testing the local services for the boss.

President Obama-

"I expect that investigation to be thorough and I expect it to be rigorous.
If it turns out that some of the allegations that have been made in the
press are confirmed, then of course I'll be angry," he said.
