Three US marines punished ‘over involvement with Brazilian prostitute’

The Americans “were pulled out of the country immediately” and
subjected to disciplinary action, the official said.

After disclosures that Secret Service agents hired prostitutes in Colombia at
the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, the Brazilian “woman hired a
local attorney and attempted to sue the embassy,” the US official said.

He did not mention the status of the lawsuit.

In Cartagena, the scandal erupted when a group of Secret Service agents
allegedly hired prostitutes on the eve of Obama’s arrival at the Summit of
the Americas 10 days ago.

Panetta said the accused Secret Service agents had their security credentials
suspended until the investigation is concluded.

Two more of the agents have resigned over the Colombia sex scandal and one
more will have his security clearance permanently revoked, the Secret
Service announced Tuesday.

Six Secret Service agents already had lost their jobs over the scandal
involving prostitutes, whom they allegedly invited back to their hotel in
Cartagena as they prepared for Obama’s visit.
