For this to be a hatchet job, there would have to be no evidence of someone breaching the secure area with the cooperation of at least one officer.
I don’t believe that to be the case. I think there was a security breach, and that the SS took their normal precautions when faced with a compromised unit - they replaced it.
The hooker part is just the reason why it’s juicy news being spread by the tabloid CNN. As for the accusations against others, the unauthorized visitor probably wasn’t logged, was let into a secure area by officers or the agent in charge, was probably seen by others in the unit, and probably wasn’t logged out of the secure area, all significant breaches of the security protocol.
The actual embarrassing part about it is being told by the local police that your security was compromised. It would have been one thing if this was discovered internally, that it came from an outside source means heads are going to roll as an example.
I am not willing to automatically accept the word of a Colombian hooker over the reputation of our Secret Service agents.
Or CNN, for that matter...
We need to let this play out before we believe first reports.
