US Secret Service Agents & Prostitutes
I bet every male US Secret Service Agent volunteered for this duty for the opportunity to meet some local Colombian women and culture. It's too bad that someone had to rat them out. I guess we won't be getting a "trip report" from any of them.

Secret Service Agents Sent Home from Summit for Alleged Misconduct.

(NewsCore). A number of US Secret Service agents tasked with protecting President Barack Obama during his trip to Colombia for the Summit of the Americas have been sent home amid allegations of misconduct, The Washington Post reported.
Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association president Jon Adler told the newspaper the accusations include at least one agent being involved with a prostitute in Cartagena, where the president arrived Friday.
Secret Service spokesman Edwin Donovan declined to confirm what the allegations involved, but said in a statement that "the Secret Service takes all allegations of misconduct seriously" and the incident was being investigated by the agency's Office of Professional Responsibility.
Donovan did not specify how many agents were involved, nor how many had been recalled from Colombia.
"These personnel changes will not affect the comprehensive security plan that has been prepared in advance of the President's trip," his statement said.
The Post said it was alerted to the misconduct by journalist Ronald Kessler, who has written a book on the Secret Service. Kessler said as many as 12 agents had been sent home.
Kessler said soliciting prostitutes is legal in Colombia, but was considered inappropriate by the Secret Service.
Obama flew into Colombia on Friday afternoon for the Americas summit, which is set to be attended by leaders from throughout the region.
Sorry to rain on the parade
While I take advantage of opportunities just like any other red-bloodied male, I take a hard line on the Secret Service agents' Columbia caper. If you have prostitutes, you will have cocaine, etc. The agents went to Cartagena to protect the president and not party. End of story.
