Official announcements from the U.S. Secret Service
Trump to Appoint Sean Curran as Secret Service Director Before Inauguration, Replacing Ronald Rowe
Jan 17, 2025, 10:26 AM
President-elect Donald Trump is set to appoint Sean Curran, the head of his personal Secret Service detail, as the new director of the U.S. Secret Service. This decision comes after the resignation of Kimberly Cheatle, who stepped down following an assassination attempt on Trump on July 13, 2024, in Butler, Pennsylvania, where Trump's ear was grazed by a bullet. Curran, who has been responsible for Trump's security and was present during the Butler incident, is expected to replace acting director Ronald Rowe. Curran supervises about 85 agents in his current role. The move has been reported by multiple sources, including CNN and ABC News, indicating that Trump's announcement could come before his inauguration on Monday. Curran's appointment is seen as a response to the scrutiny faced by the Secret Service after the security breaches during the assassination attempt.
