US Secret Service agent 'kills himself' amid inquiry

Quote:

A US Secret Service agent assigned to President Barack Obama's security detail has died in an apparent suicide, law enforcement sources have said.

Special agent Rafael Prieto was being investigated for failing to report a romantic relationship with a foreign national, they told US media.

The agency said it was "mourning the loss of a valued colleague".

Quote:

The behaviour of its agents have been under scrutiny since a prostitution scandal in Colombia earlier this year.

A number were dismissed after allegations that Secret Service agents hired prostitutes while they were in Cartagena last April to prepare the way for President Obama's visit to attend the Summit of Americas.

Agents are required to inform the Secret Service of any relationship with a foreign citizen to ensure there is no risk to national security.

Yeah, 'cos then Romney's guards could do the exact same thing...

But honestly, someone's just died.

Are you a human or a robot?

I really do hope one of your friends or family members who is in the military or works in another way for the government, will off himself! I'd like to see you standing at the funeral, babbling: "he deserved it, cause he worked for the Kenyan".
Shame on you for mocking someone who killed himself for personal reasons because you don't like his boss! :nope:

I know mathematics is a liberal conspiracy, just like the right use of the English language, but I'll tell you a little secret: 2012 - 20 = 1992. This person also worked for your beloved King George the 1st and 2nd.
