New Delhi: A Secret Service agent deployed to protect former US President Barack Obama has been fired. He has been fired for taking his girlfriend to Obama's beach house in Hawaii in 2022 and violating national security rules. This incident happened when Obama and his family were not present in the residence.

As revealed in the book

The matter has been revealed in the book 'Undercover Heartbreak: A Memoir of Trust and Trauma' by the agent's ex-girlfriend Coraya Dwanyan, which she herself has published on October 28. In the book, Coraya has named the agent as 'Dale' and said that he (the agent) suggested having sex in former First Lady Michelle Obama's bathroom, which he used to present as a 'Mile-High Club' experience. According to the book, Dale said, "We should have sex in Michelle's bathroom, no one will know. If something happens, I will have to face trouble."

The agent was suspended.

US Secret Service communications chief Anthony Guglielmi confirmed that the agent was suspended immediately after the incident and removed from service after the investigation was completed. Anthony Guglielmi said, "On November 6, 2022, a Secret Service agent brought an unauthorized person into a secure facility without permission. As soon as the agency became aware of the incident, the agent was immediately suspended and removed following an investigation." He described the incident as against Secret Service protocol.

Corya Dwanyan has claimed that she met this agent in 2022 during a vacation to a place called Martha's Vineyard, where the agent was on security duty for the Obama family. According to Dwanyan, the agent had told her that he was divorced about a decade ago, but Corya later found out that he was still married.
