Secret Service agent on Vice President Mike Pences detail caught with prostitute in MD hotel..


According to a report on CNN, multiple law-enforcement officials said a Secret Service agent on Vice President Mike Pence’s detail has been suspended after meeting a prostitute at a hotel in Maryland. Police reportedly responded to a call from the hotel manager, who was suspicious of activity in one of the rooms. The agent reportedly was arrested and charged with solicitation. At the time of the incident, the agent reportedly did not present himself in his official capacity. A spokesperson for the Secret Service acknowledged on the record to CNN that there was “an alleged incident” and that the situation is under investigation by the Office of Professional Responsibility.

It's the same to the Pences.

Will he be punished by biblical standards?

Well, golly. I don't approve of this agent's behavior, of course, but I think I understand why he got to the point of needing to blow off a little steam.

that one of them would be so dumb as to do something like this.

Although since all of these things seem to involve male members of the Service, either all men in the job should be castrated in the hopes they'd then stop soliciting prostitutes, or hire only women. Not that women aren't capable of misbehavior, but they can't be any worse.
