Who should replace the leader at the embattled Secret Service?
In a letter to Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, the nation’s largest police union is recommending former Senate Sergeant-at-Arms and U.S. Capitol Police Chief Terrance Gainer, the USA Today reports.
The recommendation follows the resignation of Julia Pierson, the agency’s first female leader.
The interim chief is Joseph Clancy, a retired special agent in charge of the Secret Services’s Presidential Protective Division.
Franternal Order of Police President Chuck Canterbury said Gainer has “the respect and admiration of those who worked for him and those who worked with him.”
