Subscribe to RSSA woman identifying herself as the escort who had a confrontation with a Secret Service agent who refused to pay her fee spoke publically during a paid interview on a Colombian radio network. NBC's Mark Potter reports.
A woman identifying herself as the Colombian prostitute at the center of a scandal involving U.S. Secret Service agents spoke publicly about the incident for the first time on Friday, telling a Colombian radio network that, had she been a terrorist, she could have easily pried loose details of President Barack Obama’s planned visit to Cartagena from the liquored-up agents.
“At that moment, if I had wanted to, or if I had been part of one of those terrorist groups, it's obvious I would have been able to get everything," the woman, Dania Londono Suarez, told Caracol Radio.
Suarez said the Secret Service personnel did not consume drugs, but “bought alcohol like one buys water” while partying at a discotheque in the tourist destination before inviting some of the “escorts” to return with them to the Hotel Caribe, where many members of Obama’s security detail were staying.
Suarez said she didn't know if there were other girls or how many agents were involved. "I was at the bar with another girl, but left with him by myself. I was the only one."
Suarez said she made clear that she expected to be paid before departing with the agent whose refusal to pay her led to exposure of the misconduct.
“I was at a disco and he came over and told me 'sex,'" she said. "... I said, 'Baby, Cash, Money,' that I wanted money. He said, 'OK, baby. How much?' 'Eight hundred.' He told me, 'Eight hundred. OK, let's go. Come, come to hotel.'
"It was obvious. I can't believe he would be so dumb or so stupid to think I wasn't going to charge him money."
But she said that the agent had a change of heart when they awoke in his room about 6 a.m.

“When he was drunk he was the nicest guy, but when he woke up sober, he was another person,” Suarez said. “When I asked him for the money, he told me ‘Let go, bitch.’ He pushed me into the hallway and closed the door. He wouldn't come out. I kept pounding on the door. Hotel security came. The called the head of the hotel's security and I explained what happened to him on the phone.”
NBC's Kristen Welker discusses an interview Friday by a Colombian woman who says she was at the center of the recent Secret Service prostitution scandal.
Suarez, who has a 9-year-old son, said she traveled to Dubai after the incident but had returned to Colombia despite concern that she could face retaliation from the tarnished Secret Service personnel.
"I fear they will retaliate against me," she said. "I left my country, practically fled. Yes I am scared. I fear or my family and for my son. No one has threatened me, no one has come to see me, but their marriages have been wrecked, they're sharp shooters, because I've been doing some research and I know they do that."
She also said her career as an escort is over: "I do not plan to that ever again," she said. "They ruined my life. They should have never published my pictures, my name."

The Secret Service has declined to comment on the interview. According to an official with the Secret Service the agency is close to completing its internal investigation of the incident, which occurred prior to the Summit of the Americas on April 14-15.
The 12 Secret Service personnel at the center of the investigation were among 175 members of the service in Colombia during Obama’s visit. They were among 135 staying at the Hotel Caribe, the source said.
Seven of those members of the agency have resigned, one has been terminated and one has retired, NBC News has reported previously. Three others have been cleared of serious misconduct but given administrative punishment.
Meantime, a separate investigation into U.S. military personnel who were allegedly involved in the incident has been concluded and forwarded to a commander for review, military and defense officials tell NBC News.
According to the officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity, the U.S. military investigator looking into the incident zeroed in on a dozen uniformed personnel assigned to the security operation -- seven Army personnel (six Special Forces Green Berets and one White House communications specialist); two Navy bomb detection specialists, two Marine dog handlers and one member of the Air Force whose duties were not specified.
SOUTHCOM commander Gen. Douglas Frazier will review the report and determine what, if any, punishment should be meted out. Once he formally accepts the findings of the investigation, he has four options:
- Clear any or all the individuals of any wrongdoing.
- Administrative action (a letter of reprimand, usually a career-ender).
- Non-Judicial punishment (reduction in rank and pay).
- Criminal charges and court martial.
In the Uniformed Code of Military Justice, consorting with or procuring the services of a prostitute is prohibited and considered a criminal act.
Erika Angulo is an NBC News producer based in Miami; NBC's Chief Pentagon Correspondent Jim Miklaszewski and Kristen Welker of NBC's Washington, D.C., bureau also contributed to this report.

Is it true Senator Vitter (r) of LA volunteered to go and interview the prostitute as he claims he can tell if they are lying or not?
What info did she get???? Just because you're liquored up doesn't mean you're going to blab your guts out!!!
The agents were in the wrong ... but to take the word of a skank ... get your 15 and get off the stage and good luck finding a profession which requires a bit more than partying and laying on your back side!
Can you imagine if you were one of the guys who got and paid for your prostitute, um, excuse me, escort?. Wouldn't you be like, "You dumb @$$ F#(% , you just sank us all you cheap skate."
Bitchplease. You couldn't even get your money.
Have any of you ever heard of a lady named Mada Hari?? Woman have been used as spies since the Beginning of time. WHY because men open their big mouths to them WAKE UP! She could have got all kinds of information out of these clowns!
I agree...Whatever Bush touched, he messed up.
BUSH WAS THE WORST PRESIDENT EVER....
He has destroyed this country
Beadarg:
That's not the bush hs was talking about man...
She's pretty good looking, no signs of the STDs or IV drug use yet. But lets be real, yes guys have issues with blood being displaced from the brain at certain times and do really stupid things at those times, these are the men who protect the prez, i seriously doubt at anytime enough blood was missing from their brains to tell this ....er...hrmmmmmm...lady anything that was a threat to the national security. She is just looking for her 15 minutes of fame. Doubt she'll be off her knees long enough to be of any real importance.
@Chris - I totally almost choked on my bagel. LMFAO
What does Bush have to do w/ this, except that he was in the country when Obama was born?
Ahh sh%t Chris, I was eating a taco and DID choke. Oh man that was funny.
: ))
Gil - Agree, but I didn't know that Bush was in Kenya when Obama was born there....
Thanks Chris-629698 ... funny as hell ................
Beadarg.....Grow up. obummer is the worst prez ever and has destroyed this country with his socialist policies and illegal friendly ways. We need conservatives in office now more than ever!
This looks like an MSNBC article that is fading.
Comments should be scrapped, for lack of intelligent debate.
Big Boob ... didn't know it was illegal to have friendly ways????
What "socialist policies"???? Oh that's right ... spread it around ... hmmmm ... so much nicer to jusy keep it with the 1% ... and by the way ... has it trickled down to you yet???
beadarg, you are still in the gene pool?? It's time to sign off, boy.
Just one more example of the lack of discipline occurring in the Obama Administration.
The Secret Service is out of control.
The GSA is out of control.
Our soldiers have been forced to fight a losing battle because they have one hand tied behind their backs.
The Justice Department is responsible for losing track of two thousand guns, one of which ends up killing a U.S. Border Patrol agent in the hands of a Mexican drug runner.
The State Dept. can't even help a Chinese dissident asking for political amnesty and throws him out of our embassy and back into the hands of the Communist Chinese.
Does ANYBODY in the Obama Administration take ANYTHING seriously? We can't take 4 more years of this buffoonery from this group of incompetents.
Its all bull she sees $$$ signs, how can her being afraid to resume her chosen profession ruin her life, if she was a prostitute her life was already in the trash.
Bimbo 101.
Thats right...bunch of incompetent clowns...i just hope the cure (Romney) is not worse than the ailment and gets us into a war with Iran that will kill many more of our young and get this country into a debt spiral worse than the one we are by clogging the oil routes in the middle east and contracting the government further choking whatever growth we still have left. That will happen if they come in and start to accelerate government shutdowns too quick to reduce deficits and kill the only motor left in our economy...individual consumer. These days i don't trust anyone of these clowns since that all have their little agendas to seize power and screw the little people (us).
Newscover.....Let me say things slowly so your minuscule brain can comprehend. obummer allows illegals to live in this country without fear of deportation. He has fought against AZ to have the right to protect their state from dangerous illegal Mexicans. He allows illegals to vote without showing proof of identity or citizenship. He allows illegals to get free medical care, free education and free food. Tax paying "real Americans" have had enough of this BS to get latino votes. No, I am not in the 1%. I do, however, own my own profitable business, have an income deep in the six figures and pay nearly 50% of my income to the Federal, State and Local taxes. Most Americans believe that ALL Americans should pay taxes. The 48% who pay no taxes at all will argue against that. This fool that has never shown he is really a natural born American and WILL be given his walking papers in November, along with the rest of his liberal, socialistic comrades.
Just think. If the idiot agent paid this woman, we wouldn't be talking about any of this.
A hooker complaining how she was treated. No that's just rich.
She wont have to worry about them shooting her, that will never happen. she does have to worry about high places, car brakes, chemical substances, swimming and things like that but then doesn't everyone? don't worry about it she will find a way to cash in on this scandal and she can take all the trips to Dubai she wants, that's the wonder full thing about this modern world the more disgusting you can be the greater the rewards. least ways it appears that way. till you have to pay the Devil!
This woman is just trying to stretch out her 15 minutes of fame. Not that I blame her, she didn't get paid for the first 15 minutes, and THAT included 14 min. 45 sec. of foreplay.
If this "girl" was a real Prostitute, she would have demanded the money upfront, before she "worked". Not receiving her cash upfront (pardon the pun), all prostitutes will not do the "favor". They walk off from the potential customer right away.
She may not have been a real prostitute---just someone looking for an overnighter with a drunk Secret Service Agent.
Did the Secret Service agents ruin her life or did she when she became a prostitute?
No, they probably paid her many times "afterwards'. This behavior sounds likes its been going on for quite a while.
I would like to play poker with some of you guys. I wouldn't have to work another day the rest of my life. (Romney) lets play with 3 cards up and 2 in your hand. show cards1 forced small businesses out. 2 cost prople jobs. 3 why work for $100,000 a month and give up 3-5 million in bonasus a year at stock market day.
his hold cards are 1 governer of Mass. didn't create 1 job 2 raised state taxes in a state that already is known to have the highest taxes. I have a pair duces in my hand nuff said I win.
Sounds like we have some real experts on prostitution on this thread.
Yeah BigBob! You showed him with your infantile insults and "saying" things slowly as you typed them. You are obviously all of our mental superiors and should, yourself, run for office. I'm sure you wouldn't be an embarrassment to any of us. Now go ahead and tell me how and why you'd be better than any socialist/fascist democrat and how you'll bring christ back into the constitution. Please...tell us that and we'll all try to keep a straight face in an attempt to take someone like you seriously. Start now.
Solyndra. 'nuff said about Barry's Green Energy. Did you hear the latest? they have left containers of toxic waste at their plant in Milpitas and won't/can't dispose of it because they don't have the money. Thanks for wasting that money Barry. You should have spent the money on a Raptor or a few Blakchawks... at least we would have some assets to show for our tax dollars.
Big Bob is 100% right. You would have to be blind not to see it. And if you accepted Christ as you God and Savior you would be better off in life. Now you and your Godless socialist friends can try to keep a straight face.
There's so much that we'll never know about this, and should never know about. I suspect the Secret Service is a rather stable organization from year to year in the sense of there being few changes when the USA elects a new President. That makes it hard to know where & when to lay blame. It's obvious that someone who is afraid to stand up and say, "yeah, I was screwing around, and it's my personal life, so go take a hike), whether a Secret Service agent, member of Congress, judge, President or candidate for the presidency, is somewhat likely to be vulnerable to bribery or other manipulations from the person(s) that the individual is involved with. So for Secret Service or other public officials, sexual escapades etc. should be a severe violation of a condition for holding the position. They should be fired as soon as we have enough qualified personnel to replace them.
Hookers are people too, perhaps caught in a web, perhaps having more integrity than Wall Street millionaires, foreclosure bankers, some Catholic clergy hierarchy, some politicians, some coal mine owners or managers, some environment polluters, some college sports 'leaders', date rapists, defense contractors, television evangelists, careless engineers or their managers [e.g. BP Gulf of Mexico oil disaster], reckless or drunk drivers, ...
Big Bob-1107869 ... you sound like a blow fish to me ... like Joe the plummer ......
$800 for a single mother? Are you on f***ing crack? Sorry, honey... but no man in his right mind will pay that much money to throw a toothpick down a hallway. So I am calling bull-s*** on your whole story. No single mother hooker, who looks like her, will ever get $800. Maybe if she said $4.25 was her rate, then I would believe it... but $800? Come on.
Jesus was the biggest socialist of all time... is he Godless?
He gave out free healthcare to EVERYONE. Christians like YOU would rather people die. Here, let me quote you and your kind: "LET THEM DIE!"
He gave free food, bread and fish, to the hungry. Christians like YOU would rather they starve.
He told a rich man to give away all his belongings. Christians like YOU support your own greed.
He stated a rich man would have a harder time getting into heaven than a camel passing through the eye of the needle. Christians like YOU twist that passage to support your own greed.
So who is the "Godless" one? If doing the EXACT OPPOSITE of what Jesus taught is "Godless", then you fit the bill perfectly.
BTW: The Catholic church has come out AGAINST the Ryan Plan and said that Republicans are NOT Christ-like. Ohhhhhh... that must sting. Your own religion is against the current Republican platform. How does that feel? That twisting knot in your stomach, knowing that your own religion does not support your platform... do you like that? LOL

"Prostitution is The World's Oldest Profession".

@Chris
I was eating when I read your comment and almost choked to death. Hilarious.
I just watched the whole interview and it seems like the Colombian media hates her. Which is total BS because she didn't force the agents to pay to sleep with her. The US media is twisting this as well based on how this article is written.
"They ruined my life" she stated. Uh, no. They ruined their own lives and the lives of their families. You ruined your own life. You chose to go to the hotel.
@IndieParty : It's OBVIOUSLY 800 pesos, not dollars. Her price is equivalent to about 60 dollars. Are you happy now?
How much is the US going to pay for this???? I mean isn't that why she is on the news telling all...
Another famous "socialist" president, Abe Lincoln. Lincoln sign and supported the Homestead Act. The Act GAVE people 160 acres of government land no questions asked. All they had to do was live on it for five years and make unspecified improvement. Anyone could apply except those who took up arms against the government. 270 million acres of land were given to individuals under this act. This was opposed by the TEA party of his day- southern Democrats who wanted the land for slaveholders before they suceeded. He also passed the first income tax. It actually taxed the wealthy in a progressively. In other words the more you made they higher % you paid. He signed the Legal Tender Act that created "greenbacks" and a federal chartered bank (the FED). He signed the Land Grant Act the Buchanan vetoed. It gave northern states 300K acres of land or the cash equilivent to establish state universities. Now all states have them. They include, Auburn University, University of Arizona, University of California, University of Georgia, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Purdue University, Iowa State University, University of Kentucky, Michigan State University, University of Minnesota, Mississippi State University, Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, Cornell University, Ohio State University, Pennsylvania State University, Clemson University, University of Wisconsin–Madison, and many others. Then there was another Teddy Roosevelt. He interfered with free markets by ending monopolies and trust busting. In addition he also set aside million of acres of federal and private land for enviromental causes. Stopping that land from being developed for commerical reasons. Let's not forget Ronald Reagan. He passed the largest tax increase in history in 1982. When Reagan came into office, the national debt was 32% of the Gross Domestic Product and when he left it was 53% of GDP. Reagan approved a tax increase to “save” Social Security, the centerpiece of FDR’s New Deal, rather than repeal that piece of a European-style welfare state. Finally there is George W. Bush. Instead of attacking America’s version of socialized medicine — the Medicare program — he actually expanded it more than anyone has by adding the drug benefit, making socialized medicine for the elderly even more expensive!
I guess all that leaves the GOP to be proud of is Hubert Hoover? Damn socialist presidents! (sarcasm)
"Are you the infamous Secret Service Hooker?"
"Jess... I am the infamous Secret Service Huuker."
WOW. It takes a special lady to admit she's a prostitute on international news television.
BTW.... I would. Most definitely.
the dudes (beadarg for instance) that have their "Bushes" confused are cracking me up, I guess they dont understand inuendo or maybe inherendo LOL
I'm still stuck on the "fled to Dubai" line... for a job?? A client? What?? If I had no money, lived in Columbia, I might stay closer to home...
as the poster above said, these ladies (I am being polite) get paid up front... she waits till the next day? Either not the brightest bulb on the tree, or lying....
And, I too HOWLED at Chris.... lol
beadarg
YOUR one "F'ed" up dude....or dudette
So you've never been drunk and did or agreed to somthing stupid? Have you ever seen some of those women who work in Nevada brothels?
She isn't that bad, I'd hit it, but definately not for 800$
Newscover, Nice to see you can keep it on a substantive level and not have to resort to name calling. (sarcastic)
obama is a marxist, he said it himself.
What I really wanted to say is i think it's interesting that this woman is in Dubai now. I wonder what she knows.
What the 81:
Colombia "hates" her because she is destroying the image of Colombia by speaking out about the Scandal..
They already have a bad star for the biggest dealer/Drug Cartels in the World/now it is Mexico.
Colombia depends on Tourism, and potential help from other Countries i.e, Natural Disaster, etc.
Colombia along with drugs, this gal is making it look like a country without anything to offer except the 2 products all of us know about. Now it is Prostitution with Overseas American Secret Service Agents.
It is really the fault of the stupid Secret Service who have now decimated the image of their Integrity to all US Citizens, Worldwide to Protect the President of the United States---they are hookers themselves. Bad, Bad, Image for the US Government as well.
Don't blame him, Democrats are not very bright ...
So, are we ever going to find out who these guys were, how long they had been with the Secret Service and who put them on the Presidents service? Oh, wait, what am I saying, we'll never get the truth from this Whitehouse. Especially since it probably would only bring them more embarrassment.
What's the point, is it really any of the public's business?
IndieParty:Were you watching the Laurence O'donnell show this morning or last night? Because they covered that exact same topic.
Some Highlights:
Jesus a Socialist:
Jesus tells the rich young man to sell everything and give the money to the poor.( Mathew 10:21)
Feeding the hungry or the poor as if it is done to him - ( Mathew 25: 44-45)
Jesus a Capitalist:
Jesus tells the parable of the talents (condems a man for his laziness and for wasting his life)-(Mathew 25: 26)
Jesus reaffirms the 10 commandments, including the last one about coveting.(Mathew 19: 17)
So there you have it. Was Jesus a capitalist or a Socialist? In my opinion, he was neither.
Marchant: Thanks for the information?
Are you really that thick? They are on the public dime (taxes), of course it's the public's business.
The ones who talk trash about the prostitute need to readjust their thinking! Any one who provides a service such as a doctor, lawyer or electrician expects to be paid, if a person agrees to pay then they are obligated to. As long as people want to use the services of prostitutes this "career" will continue to exist, so quit blaming them for the problem.
Before you speculate, no, I have never sold my body or had anyone close to me do so.
There's a first time for everything... So, what are you wearing? ;)
*just kidding of course*
It's unpatriotic to use foreign prostitutes...
home-grown prostitutes serve as the stimulus ....to the economy...
Oh yes *please* let's make this a referendum on prostitution. Please.
Unhappy, Jesus was neither a capitalist or a socialist. All of the bible quotes you posted are not complete so a little out of context. all quotes are there to show that you (humans) must do these things to glorify God, to help those around you because we are all brothers under God. Or to work to find favor with God.
Jesus was not a politition, he is our savior.
@bigbob post 1.23; stunning, so let me go sentence by sentence SLOWLY for you!
"Let me say things slowly so your minuscule brain can comprehend. obummer allows illegals to live in this country without fear of deportation." And yet deportations under the current admin have skyrocketed: you lied.
"He has fought against AZ to have the right to protect their state from dangerous illegal Mexicans." No, he is fighting AZ's "papers-please" law for abrogating Federal prerogatives: you lied.
"He allows illegals to vote without showing proof of identity or citizenship." No proof has ever been brought forward, only fear-mongered bigoted lies.
"He allows illegals to get free medical care, free education and free food." Finally, you've made a statement that has some limited merit.
"No, I am not in the 1%. I do, however, own my own profitable business, have an income deep in the six figures and pay nearly 50% of my income to the Federal, State and Local taxes." If you are deep into six figures, YOU ARE THE 1%, you lied.
"Most Americans believe that ALL Americans should pay taxes. The 48% who pay no taxes at all will argue against that." You lied; if you'd said pay no income tax--you would have been closer to the mark, but to say they pay no tax is a flat out total lie.
"This fool that has never shown he is really a natural born American...". Actually, yes he did. You lied.
Sum total, you are a liar.
I have been friends with prostitutes. I won't put any of them down, the ones I knew were more genteel than lots of so called "ladies" that I have met. They have lives, loves and children, just like other women and the ones I have known were honest, they were comfortable with themselves and their profession.
Holy Hell.....couldn't they( the secret services) have found a prettier prostitute? If they were going to screwed up their career at least find a good looking hot chick to make it worth while.
Men will be men.....that's all i have to say.
Whore...
She has the freedom - Freedom of speech, of course, and freedom to do what she does is a form of freedom of speech, the US Supreme Court will say...
SLUT?! SLUT?!
Or...she is a ...slut machine - let's gamble.
She must have been the wh()re who was servicing the dog handlers. Beware the 1/2 American puppies, coming soon to a shelter near you.
@wolfpack2000, what you said reminds me of a couple of lines in a song by Bobby Bare. "I never went to bed with an ugly woman, but I sure woke up with a few."
Seriously though, $800.00, give me a break. He must have been loaded. Liquored up that bad I doubt if he did anything more than go to sleep. $20.00 US and a box of Tide should have been more than enough for that.
Her life is ruined...almost as bad as that time when her customer's check bounced.
"Gil - Agree, but I didn't know that Bush was in Kenya when Obama was born there...."
Yeah and right after he was born in Kenya he called Hawaii and had them announce it in the Hawaiian news paper and then had them issue him a birth certificate because he knew the first day he would be president someday.
PS You are STUPID!
"Beadarg.....Grow up. obummer is the worst prez ever and has destroyed this country with his socialist policies and illegal friendly ways. We need conservatives in office now more than ever!"
First off telling someone to grow up and then calling the President a name a 5 year old would come up with is just , well childish. So grow up yourself.
2. Bush was and still is the worse ever.
3. Pray tell what socialist polices are you referring to? Health care? Can you name another ? Here let me help. Public roads and Highways, Public school, Social Security, medicaid, oh wait! he didn't have anything to do with those....never mind. We have and have had many social programs in this country for decades and no one claimed those presidents were socialist. OHHH load forbid the great US of A should do what many other countries have done and provide Health care to all. DAMN THOSE EVIL SOCIALIST! I'm beginning to think calling someone a socialist is the new McCarthyism. And just like McCarthyism its not based on any factual evidence JUST A BUNCH OF BULL.
"So, are we ever going to find out who these guys were, how long they had been with the Secret Service and who put them on the Presidents service? Oh, wait, what am I saying, we'll never get the truth from this Whitehouse. Especially since it probably would only bring them more embarrassment."
Like try reading some more . Why do you need to know their names? to see if you know them? From what I have read they were all in the service for many years so nothing for you to try and twist into some sort of political attack like you did in your post.
PS if you think you got the truth from the last administration you're dumber than a box of rocks.
Ain't no shame in being ugly, rich, packing and generous - can't say the same when you are ugly, poor, less well endowed and a cheap-a55.
Life can be so unfair...
You will never get names or info about who was fired cause they WEREN'T fired. Prostitution is LEGAL there and these officers did nothing more than most politicians and congressmen do everyday but Prostitution isn't legal in most states and Washington DC. Prostitution is legal in NEVADA thou and rest assure, during all those visits to Nevada for presidential candidates and Presidents, present and past, I am sure aids and secret service visited the brothels. I am so tired of hearing "OH MY GOD, THESE EMPLOYEES DID WRONG". Please, grow the hell up, they were off duty and they slept with a hooker they legally purchased. She decided to up the purchase price after the encounter when she figured out who they were.
As She says she could probably have gotten what ever info she wanted. It used to be that people with security clearances were indoctrinated into the idea that "loose lips sink ships". That so many were involved speaks volumes of how sloppy security has become. Janet can you explain how that happened on your watch?
Not to undermine the very real and very serious security threat that these Secret Service antics posed, but I really doubt she could have gotten any information she wanted. Almost assuredly anything of importance was locked in a safe.
Also, this woman is clearly full of crap when it comes to fearing a sniper hit by any of these guys, she's just enjoying her 5 minutes of fame and increased prices she'll now fetch. I don't believe her one bit when she says she's now retired. So she just goes to Dubai, land of rich men with money to spend on importing foreign prostitutes, on a whim?
As for "publishing her name and photos", the press did that not the Secret Service and she was VERY EAGER to talk to the press. Even down in Colombia they know that if you give your name to a journalist and let them take your picture then THEY'RE PROBABLY GOING TO WRITE A STORY ABOUT YOU AND PUBLISH YOUR PHOTOS.
Again, this was all a serious issue that should have never happened in the Secret Service, and I'm glad to see leadership dealt with it firmly and resolutely, but this lady is about as publicity-shy (and about as smart as) a typical reality show contestant.
If she wanted to be "safe" from the US Secret Service why would she go to a US friendly country? To prove how stupid she is.....she is currently in Dubai talking publicly about being a foreign, non-Muslim prostitute. Yeah....that's smart.
BTW....how did she get the money to fly to Dubai (not cheap) and then stay there (not cheap)? Simple, she is now a International Escort banging some Arab Prince.
The book will be out as soon as she is able to make up a good story, now how to stretch a few hours out to fill about 900 pages and make it exciting, to start with leave out the six hours of sleep, she better have a sexy pic on the cover, now for the plot secret agent ya that will work! better add some Chinese and Russian agents too, a Cuban and the drug cartels a must, Obama narrowly escapes its getting better, cant wait for the English translated copy to come out. as for her part will she be a hero or a cunning vileness.
Yeah; loose hips sink ships, too.
Skanky coochie kills the poochie.
I imagine she had pretty loose lips alright, given her profession
Gotta wonder why she is in Dubai now. I wonder what she knows
I can't imagine any information the Secret Service had at that point would be relevant to Dubai now. It's not like they carry around nuclear launch codes. They probably just had Obama's schedule for the week.
What I'm wondering is how much did the taxpayers pay in salary per hour for 175 SS agents to be there in advance of Obama???
Does it really take 175 people to protect our president when he travels?? Never mind the cost of transporting his "motorcade" anywhere in the world by aircraft?? And people wonder why this country is going broke??
Nuff said.....
Its the fault of those damn Republican's... they want reciepts for everything now!!!
Ask John Edwards how that's working for him? Whether its a trip to the bathroom or pay for play - you really don't want a paper trail following you out the door.
What Happens in Columbia .... stays in Columbia! Somethings you shouldn't put on American Express .... Carry cash!
How much of an advance for a tell all book??
From her.
From the deposed agents.
All living presidents will be sh*ting there draws this summer.
Tell all? What's to tell about a three and a half inch long lympedick and cheapskate to boot?

You mean Monica Lewinsky's story? That sold very well too
Oh my god.You women are just as bad as us now.Sad for humanity.9 yo son.And how the hell she get to dubai.That's a lot of BJs
Pained: "Oh my god.You women are just as bad as us now.Sad for humanity."
Oh boo hoo hoo! What's sad for humanity is when men aren't men but just horny irresponsible little boys! Grow up! Behave yourselves and take responsiblity instead blaming women for your bad behavior! Puhleeze!
Pained: "Oh my god.You women are just as bad as us now.Sad for humanity."
Also by your logic, women have always been "better" than men up until now. If that's the case, what's REALLY sad for humanity is the fact that men run this world. Maybe it's time to give women a chance, huh?
Agreed except you make me want to retract.Yes,women ARE superior to men.A smart woman leads a man to "what he wants" You don't think sinking to our level is bad?
What has been being good got women? You call them 'ho and then when they are old and gain a little weight, you trade them in for the new model. Half of you aren't even good fathers. What are men good for? You can't be depended upon for a little fidelity? Come on, stop blaming the women. Pull up your big boy panties and stop blaming your issues on women.
Way to go, now you're no better than pained.
PAINED: "You don't think sinking to our level is bad?"
I think MEN sinking BELOW THEIR MANLY LEVEL is bad.
Be a real man--not an irresponsible boy with no self control! Be mature, responsible men who can be admired and depended on.
Stop whining about mama not "leading you to what you want." What the hell does that mean anyway? Why don't you lead yourselves to what you want? While helping and supporting your women shoulder-to-shoulder--instead of acting superior to women while expecting them to be "better" than you.
Oh well Hell yes Media fks...Let's believe anything and everything some coced(there isn't a K in cocaine) up prostitute from columbia...Yea Ok...Fkn morons!!
Prostitution is legal so it is unllikely their employer would allow drugs and since it is business they probably don't drink either. Kind of makes you the Fkn moron.
Oh that's right..the employer doesn't allow it so they won't use it..got it....You fkn moron!!
I'm sorry....just because it is not illegal in Colombia to be a prostitute, that doesn't mean that they work for a organized corporation with an HR department and a 401K program. It just means they charge men to bang them and they don't have to worry about getting arrested.
The media is just trying to distract from all the corruption and disregard for laws and rules that has trickled down from this administration. Party time on the American Dime. That should be their slogan but Forward shows more of thier real intent. Just so they all go marching forward to Chicago or wherever the heck they crawled out of.
John D.-303905, you are suspended for a day for violating rule # 1 of the Code of Honor.
I hope the CIA resolves this situation with a little trip to Guantanamo for her and her kid. I hope shes thirsty!
Why, what did she do??? Please, if anybody was a threat to national security it was the agent, who was there in a professional capacity, hired a prostitute, and then refused to pay her. All of which, is ridiculous, considering that some jobs require a little more restraint, and protecting the POTUS falls at the top of that list.
This wasn't the agents personal vacation. They were there to do a job. Get your asses back in the hotel rooms, and save the whoring for when you ARE there on vacation.
Urbancowboy,
Exactly what did she do wrong? From the reports I've heard so far, she entered into a business transaction with the agents (money for sex), and they failed to follow the verbal contract. Just because the agents were too cheap/dumb to pay her doesn't mean she deserves any punishment.
Again, I'm going on what I've heard...if the actual investigation paints a different picture then I may change my position.
I can't believe I'm agreeing w sarah.Still trying to figure out who is in the picture w you.By your politics I'm guessing your Sig other
Wow, so anyone who isn't anti-gay, must BE gay. Amazing. It's my sister, she's sitting.
It is good to see 7 people agree with Sarah and none agree with Urban...makes me feel a bit better about our country. :)
Sarah - Couldn't agree more. Also, lets not forget that most of our American anger towards this woman is because prostitution here is illegal and for crack heads. It is a legal profession there. You don't have to agree with that, but at least understand it makes the situation a little different, legally at least (you don't have to agree morally with it).
@Ron - I know, I can't believe not even a Troll has given him an "Arrow Up" for that ridiculous comment.
Theres no way, the agents agreed to pay 800 dollars for the night with her and still remembered to pick up condoms. She was running a scam with one of local police officers or something along those lines.. It also seems that she was only one out of the dozen hookers who had a issue with the payment..
Maybe the agent was so drunk, he meant 800 pesos.
Sam:
I highly doubt is was 800 US dollars, it was probably 800 Colombian Pesos. And she had an issue with the payment because dipsh*t didn't honor his end of the deal.
Or, here's a thought people. Maybe, just maybe, the agent agreed to whatever she said because he was drunk off his caboose and decided even before they went back to the hotel that he was never going to pay her anywhere near that anyway, and there would be nothing she could do because she is just some prostitute and he is American Secret Service Agent.......Yeah that didn't work out so well did it.
Why would he do that? When he could have found another better looking one for 80 to 100 dollars?
You do realize 800 Colombian Pesos isnt even 50 cents correct? Ive been to over 15 countries and I would put everything on, that she was trying to scam those two agents..
Well, this will solve the problem completely... Don't buy whores, period, while on the job. You know what, if you're in the Secret Service, maybe you shouldn't buy whores at all. In any country. For any amount of money. Perhaps they can sacrifice prostitutes for the honor of protecting the leader of the free world, and their country's president???
Regardless of pricing, or possible scams. It's still the agents responsibility or lack thereof. End of story.
Sam - My god you are a stubborn person. I thought I was, but you take the whole wedding sized cake.
"Why would he do that? When he could have found another better looking one for 80 to 100 dollars?"
Because, as I clearly stated, maybe he never intended on paying her more than $50, but liked the way she looked the best. You don't think some of these guys let being secret service go to their heads and think they can do anything?
"You do realize 800 Colombian Pesos isnt even 50 cents correct? Ive been to over 15 countries and I would put everything on, that she was trying to scam those two agents.. "
800 pesos equaling 50 cents just goes to prove even more that she did not mean 800 pesos. Judging from your logic on this matter I wouldn't trust ANYTHING you put your everything on.
Sam--there's no conflict between agreeing to $800 and buying condoms--what's the conflict? Maybe she was the one who remembered to stop at the drugstore (makes sense).
And as far as "It also seems that she was only one out of the dozen hookers who had a issue with the payment.." That's because her SS Agent "John" was only one out of a dozen agents Johns who welched on his agreement--what a foolish cheapskate! Pennywise & pound foolish!
Ron and JasonFin, I agree with Urban, if only to DISAGREE withANYTHING that comes out of Sarah's piehole. I'm sorry, I just don't speak "uber-liberal".
Damian - So you agree with someone that you don't agree with, just to not agree with someone who is liberal. Wow, America sure needs more of you!
"Obama, bad!!! Liberal, bad!!! Gahhh!!!!" (I'm picturing a Frankenstein-esque monster).
Okay, Damian, in that case, since you're willing to agree with the opposite of everything I say...
Mexicans are freeloaders, Muslims are terrorists, gays are abominations, and women are whores. So what do you believe or wanna say now??? Yikes, that's a conundrum!
Yeah, it definitly isn't uber-liberal that you speak. It's uber something, but it sure ain't liberal.
Okay, forget about the prostitution for a moment. Secret service personnel aren't supposed to have foreign nationals in their hotel rooms unless they are a diplomat or a security personnel from a host country. You have a set of rules and you violate it.
Because kids....she can now be considered a "security threat" for opening her mouth and talking like she has. I think we have a vested interest in "Guantamoeing" her. A little waterboarding goes a long way. I think shes very lucky that the agent involved did not just snap her neck quietly. Dont get mad!! I'm just saying...
This has been going on for years and it is just now coming to light. To keep this quiet for this long means We sure have the best of the best working for us.
She cannot be an escort now....why?
Nothing has changed, other than everyone now knowing what she does. If she can't handle that, that is her problem. Heck she could market herself and be a tourist attraction...she might get even more business with the notoriety and charge a premium.
Could she have gotten info from the agent? Who knows, but she could not even get cash from him...so good luck getting info.
Just because she claims she could have learned anything she wanted doesn't make it so. For God's sake, give the Secret Service men some credit. The prostitute obviously has an inflated sense of her own worth and her ability to get men to spill secrets. Maybe some men would, but the Secret Service wouldn't. Get real, folks.
No, they would just be dumb enough to get drunk, hire prostitutes, while out of the country in a professional capacity and on our dime, and then refuse to pay them. If they're dumb enough to do all that. They're dumber then any of us thought.
That she was even in a position to reasonably make that claim, is enough to threaten the security of the POTUS.
Sarah-- I completely agree if they are stupid enough to not pay the prostitute
and do all the stuff they did..why would they man up and be smart enough
not to give up security secrets...the public isn't as stupid as these guys..
Most of us don't believe for a second they wouldn't have told her anything she
wanted to know.
Oh my gosh.. that is funny...give them some credit..
The Secret Service won't tell secrets...but I thought
they wouldn't be sleeping with hookers while on the jon
either..
If they had paid her this wouldn't have happened.
They were drunk and would have told her anything...that is the real truth
oops.. while on the job...but maybe they did sleep with hooker while on the jon
as well..lol
Wouldn't put it past them. They seem like they're just about classy enough to do that. You know, timeless and regal, if you will.
" 800" was not US dollars, was the local currency( the old sucres).
What is the big deal they did not commit a crime, prostitution is legal there. If we are firing people from their jobs based on Morals I'm pretty sure there would be alot of openings in D.C.
Thank you to the woman who showed us how corrupt our security and the morals of the men in charge of our most important citizens. This is a huge service to all those that the Secret Service guard. It use to be that the SS was full of highly trained professionals that were in control of themselves and respected themselves and others. They represented the best of American men when they were abroad. No wonder other country's think we are 2 faced. These men have brought dishonor and tarnished our international reputation.
And not only that, but most of the idiots posting on this forum are no better. Big talk on this forum... lots of big time losers!! Morality is seriously lacking in our society.
And showed that women are whores...
Did you mean Bourbon Cowboy?
Urban Idiot: "And showed that women are whores..."
And what are men? It takes TWO to tango, buddy!
If anything is to be learned is that you always pay for goods and services, otherwise bad things happen. I wonder if all of this was worth not forking over $800. I think $800 would have been a rather cheap way out of this mess. Way to go cheap skate, because you wanted a freebie from a colombian whore you have ruined your career and the careers of many others.
lol first, if not being able to be a hooker ruins her life, i feel sorry for her kid. Second, they did her a huge favor as this will likely turn into some sort of book deal for her...not too mention interview fees im sure she is already getting. The whoa is me line is pathetic.
Book? More likely a movie with her and Ron Jeremy. Ron will be the one with the badge. She and octomom will "share" billing. As well as Ron.
50$ is way too much for this jersey housewife reject. The penicillin alone will cost him more than that. He should have just paid the skank and sent her on her way....
SO TRUE! What exactly was she charging anyway? 800 Columbian Pesos are worth about 45 cents in the US. What a cheapskate! LOL
There seems to be a lot of anger towards women on this thread. Sounds like a lot of pent up frustration...
The secret service wouldn't tell secrets but they are so stupid that they wouldn't pay a hooker what she
asked for before the service? Come on they aren't that stupid???
Yeah she could have gotten them to tell her anything..think with your weiner much--
oh only all the time?
DUH
She couldn't even get $50, how was she going to get any real info?
Will this never go away, the Prez sure wishes it never happened. The Secret Service has been tarnished and the GSA made into extravagant circus clowns making fun of their stupidity on video. Government at its lowest with those in charge making jokes of potential security breeches with Follywood celebrities and lame stream journalists. What a disaster of political boondoggles. They are the joke whether they know it or not.
this has been going since the beginning of time. Since men started getting appointed and leading. Seriously, women wouldnt' be an embarressment. Well, I take that back, Sarah Palin's still around.
As well as Nancy Pelosi, and I wasn't too happy about Sotimeyers stupid comment about "free" healthcare. I wouldn't say that women would be as bad as men, but seriously, there are women on the take as well. And if they get to be as consistently voted in as men are, it won't be long that they will be the as corrupt as the men are. Power corrupts.
I love how prostitutes are always refereed to as "escorts" in the media.Come on !!!She's a whore plain and simple, an escort is what the men in this scandal are. Don't they escort the president?
Said the woman who's giving radio and video interviews...
And smiling for the camera the entire time.
Tell the ugly whore any information she got wouldn't be the truth. For those that bash the Government. The pay PR people 100's of thousands to feed the American public false information. Any BS scandals that anyone thinks they are getting first hand is nothing but a coverup for what really goes on. Political Distraction is what its called. Doesn't matter who occupies the big seat. Romney, Obama, Peewee Herman, its just a facade. This Country is run by The CIA, The FBI and Corporate America.
Obviously the people in the SS didn't think she was a ugly whore.
well her facial features may not be at the top of the list when hiring this woman. She has womens parts doesnt she?
Yes Gentlemen, The more you drink, the better they look. The difference between a Fox and a Pig? 5 Tequilas.
Whore? Yes.
Ugly? No.
Why should her appearance be any part of this? People are so mean it's unbelievable.
Why is anyone surprised about what went on with the SS. This is kind of behavior we come to expect from people in government. They don't work for us, they work to live a life style of the rich and famous at our expense.
she sounds like someone is putting words in her mouth.
Unlike normally she...
words...among other things
People get so upset when a prostitute acts like a prostitute.
this isnt even a question; these secret service men (and other men that govern our country) that over seas to work (ha!) have leaked many many a clasified information to many people and women and if they're too drunk and pass out, you can imagine people going through their belongings and laptops too. they are a RISK to our security, all of these drunken derelicts with clearance.
I said this before.It is their job to protect the president.Whatever their politics,or the agents' own.If you are secret service it is your job,duty,life.How DARE they dishonor the POTUS,the office,their service like that
