PROVO — What began as a noise disturbance complaint at a Utah County motel earlier this month may land three U.S. Secret Service agents in criminal court on allegations of misconduct involving a party with underage girls and alcohol.
     
Provo police and the Secret Service confirmed Thursday night that three out-of-state agents have been placed on administrative leave pending a criminal investigation.
     
According to Mike Mower, assistant to the Provo mayor, police received a disturbance complaint during the early hours of Feb. 1 at the Western Inn motel, 40 W. 300 South, Provo.
     
Police arrived and handled the disturbance. But it wasn't until five days later that police realized with whom they were dealing.
     
"Subsequent information received approximately five days later indicated the possible misconduct by three Secret Service employees," Mower said.
     
Authorities are not commenting officially on what may have happened at the motel, but the Secret Service says it is serious enough to place all three Secret Service agents on administrative leave.
     
But a source close to the investigation told the Deseret News that the agents may have been partying with underage girls in the motel room and supplying them with alcohol.      

"On Feb. 1, three agents were sent back to their respective states for alleged misconduct," Secret Service public affairs agent Jim Mackin said.
     
He said all of the three officers were supposed to serve with Olympic security but were immediately pulled from duty. At the time of the party, Mackin said, the agents were considered off-duty.
     
As recently as this week, Mackin said, the agents have been placed on administrative leave pending Provo city's investigation.
     
"Currently, two Provo police detectives are in the process of interviewing the Secret Service employees who were allegedly involved. Detectives are returning from travels to Florida, Mississippi and Alabama, where they conducted interviews," Mower said.
     
Although detectives were expected back in Utah Thursday night, Mower said it may be another week until their investigation is complete.
     
The Utah County Attorney's Office has been alerted and will screen the case for possible criminal charges against the agents, Mower said.
     
Mackin said his office is taking the matter very seriously. "We have a zero-tolerance policy, but we are waiting for the facts to be determined," he said.

Secret Service probes agents' misconduct in Utah

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- The Secret Service is investigating allegations of misconduct during a recent party in Utah by three agents assigned to an Olympic security detail, an agency spokesman said Friday.

The allegations include complaints of sexual assault, aggravated assault and public intoxication, the Salt Lake Tribune reported Friday. The party was held in Provo, and local police are investigating the complaints, the newspaper reported.

"The Secret Service has zero tolerance for improper behavior or acts of impropriety," said Secret Service spokesman Mark Connolly. "We are, however -- in fairness to all parties involved -- waiting for the facts to be determined."

Connolly refused to comment on specific allegations or the agents' identities, saying only that they were on an "Olympic-related assignment" in Utah. But Connolly did say that, on February 1, the three agents were sent from Utah back to their "respective offices" because of "alleged misconduct stemming from a party which occurred in the early morning hours of that same day."

According to the Tribune, a hotel manager claims he [b]was thrown against a wall and one of the agents threatened to shoot him [/b] when he asked the agents and other people attending the party to quiet down.

Four days after receiving that complaint, police received new information suggesting a possible sexual assault by one or more of the agents at the party, the paper said. The Tribune did report, however, that the alleged female victim "has given conflicting versions of events."

The agents were "immediately placed on restricted duty" pending an investigation by the Secret Service's investigative division -- a standard procedure in such matters, Connolly said.

A few days later, on February 5, the Secret Service learned of other allegations from the Provo police suggesting "further possible misconduct," according to Connolly. The agents, who are "cooperating fully at this time," have been placed on administrative leave, he said.

It'll be interesting to see how the GWB administration handles this if the allegations turn out to be true.  I hope he doesn't let me (and his reputation) down....

Nice guns & shades are cool, underage drinking isn't IMO...

[rolleyes]

[sarcasm]
I have a hard time believing [i]any[/i] federal agent would behave in this manner.[/sarcasm]

Talk about arrogance... I mean, Provo, Utah of all places.  

[b]Why I am just shocked![/b]   [shock]
(C'mere honey, can ya keep a "secret"....[sex])

The real story was the Secret Service agents were outside while "Slick Willy" was partying inside. When they knew the former Pres was about to be arrested, they took the fall for him.

The most credible explanation yet!

But you're okay with the underage sex? [:D]
