The Secret Service launched an investigation after an SS agent tried to smuggle his wife on a plane accompanying President Trump’s visit to Scotland.
President Trump landed in Turnberry, Scotland on Friday as part of a 5-day visit to the UK.
According to RealClearPolitics, a Secret Service Agent, who happens to be a new trainee, tried to bring his wife, an Air Force employee, with him on the trip to Scotland.
The agent reportedly flew his wife to Maryland where she received an officials Secret Service briefing and took a bus to Joint Base Andrews before she was told to leave, according to RCP.
“The agent in question is a Phase 1 agent (new trainee in first years on the job) who was written up multiple times for misconduct at the Rowley Training Center where agents go through their preliminary training to become agents and can wash out if held to proper standards, according to two sources in the Secret Service community,” RealClearPolitics reporter Susan Crabtree said.
Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi released a statement to RCPolitics:
“The U.S. Secret Service is conducting a personnel investigation after an employee attempted to invite his spouse – a member of the United States Air Force – aboard a mission support flight. The aircraft, operated by the U.S. Air Force, was being used by the Secret Service to transport personnel and equipment. Prior to the overseas departure, the employee was advised by supervisors that such action was prohibited, and the spouse was subsequently prevented from taking the flight. No Secret Service protectees were aboard and there was no impact to our overseas protective operations.”
