Secret Service veterans denounce anti-Clinton tell-all book
Former agents blast writer Gary Byrne for having 'underlying motives.'
The author of a new tell-all book about Hillary Clinton could never have seen any of what he claims he was too low-ranking say several high-level members of Secret Service presidential details, including the president of the Association of Former Agents of the United States Secret Service.
On Tuesday, AFAUSSS, which is strictly nonpartisan, is set to release a statement blasting Gary Byrne author of Crisis in Character, saying members strongly denounce the book, which they add has made security harder by eroding the trust between agents and the people they protect.
