Secret service needs reforms: Panel probing Trump assassination
Donald Trump at a Pennsylvania campaign rally faulted the Secret Service for poor communications that day and failing to secure the building where the gunman took his shots. The review also found more systemic issues at the agency such as a failure to understand the unique risks facing Trump and a culture of doing «more with less.»
The 52-page report issued on Thursday took the Secret Service to task for specific problems leading up to the July 13 rally.
«The Secret Service as an agency requires fundamental reform to carry out its mission,» the authors wrote Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas of the Homeland Security Department, the Secret Services' parent agency, in a letter accompanying their report. «Without that reform, the Independent Review Panel believes another Butler can and will happen again.» AP
