More secret service agents involved in the Columbia prostitution scandal could soon be out of a job.
(SOT-Rep. Peter King/(R) New York/Meet the Press)
"I WOULD EXPECT IN THE VERY NEAR FUTURE TO HAVE SEVERAL SECRET SERVICE AGENTS LEAVING."
Members of congress investigating the scandal expect the secret service to fire more agents this week.
So far, six agents have lost their jobs, five are on administrative leave and 11 members of the military are under investigation.
They were part of an advance team setting up security for President Obama's trip to Cartagena, Columbia.
Some agents are accused of hiring prostitutes and bringing them back to the hotel Caribe.
But the secret service now admits one agent stayed at the Hilton - the same hotel where President Obama stayed during the summit.
(SOT- Sen. Joe Lieberman/(I) Connecticut/Face the Nation)
"NOW WE DON'T KNOW AT THIS POINT WHAT THAT 12TH AGENT IS BEING CHARGED WITH AND WHY HE'S BEEN PUT ON ADMINISTRATIVE LEAVE BUT NOW YOU'RE INTO THE HOTEL WHERE THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES WAS GOING TO STAY AND IT JUST GETS MORE TROUBLING."
Senator Joe Liberman says Congress plans to launch hearings and will try to determine if this type of behavior has happened before.
Former secret service director Ralph Basham doesn't think lawmakers will find anything.
(SOT-Ralph Basham/Fmr. Dir. Secret Service/Face the Nation)
"I DON'T BELIEVE IN THE PAST THESE TYPES OF THINGS HAVE HAPPENED AND THEY CERTAINLY DIDN'T HAPPEN ON MY WATCH AND I SPENT OVER 3 DECADES IN THIS ORGANIZATION."
U-S authorites are in Columbia investigating the scandal.
The Secret Service says at no time was the President's security compromised.
