Booted Secret Service Agent Looks to Sue

More resignations expected

(Newser) – As the investigation into the Secret Service sex scandal unfolds, one of the agents driven out is set to sue, a congressional insider tells CBS News. Congress expects more resignations in the matter within days, according to Rep. Peter King. While reports have held that three agents have been forced to leave, a lawyer for two of them—David Chaney and Greg Stokes—says that's inaccurate, according to Reuters. "Nobody has been involuntarily separated from the agency as we speak today, nobody," he says.

Though authorities have reportedly told Stokes he'll be fired, he is "vigorously defending himself from any of these accusations and will take full advantage of the administrative process that is available to him," Lawrence Berger says. While some officials fear that the scandal could be symptomatic of a larger pattern, ex-agents tell the Los Angeles Times that's not the case. "My opinion ... is that this is an anomaly," says one. "I never before heard of our folks being involved with prostitutes."

What was that about Obama stonewalling nearly every South and North American leader at Summit who recognized and acknowledged the Drug War does more harm than good and wants to end it? Or what was that about US citizens being the ONLY people in the WORLD not allowed to travel to Cuba? This story is a distraction so you have something to talk about besides the agenda and how it played out, which seems to me to be the important thing to take away from a giant multi-national Summit of American countries, not that boys were being boys, that's not news. Look, a squirrel!
