The Director of the US Secret Service will retire this month, according to a spokesperson for the agency which provides personal protection for the President and VIP officials.
Mark Sullivan has been with the agency for 30 years and in charge since 2006. Last year the image of the Secret Service was severely tarnished when the President’s protection detail became embroiled in a scandal involving prostitutes in Colombia.
The scandal shook the agency to its base. It left a strong impact on its years of seeming and perceived ''infallibility' in security details and personal defence of the Washington top names.
