Trump to Appoint Sean Curran as New Secret Service Director Following Butler Incident
Jan 17, 2025, 10:51 AM
President-elect Donald Trump is set to appoint Sean Curran, the current head of his protective detail, as the new director of the U.S. Secret Service. This decision follows the resignation of former director Kimberly Cheatle in July 2024, after an assassination attempt on Trump's life during a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania. Curran, who has a close personal relationship with Trump and oversees a team of about 85 agents, was present during the Butler incident. The move to replace acting director Ronald Rowe with Curran is anticipated to be announced before Monday, according to multiple sources. The Secret Service has faced criticism for its handling of the assassination attempt, with reports indicating that Curran had been advocating for increased security resources prior to the incident.
