A U.S. Secret Service officer has been put on administrative leave after he was arrested for indecent exposure in South Florida, officials said.<\/p>\n
John Andrew Spillman, 33, was booked into Miami-Dade jail early Monday morning on a charge of indecent exposure, according to jail records. Further details of his arrest were not available.<\/p>\n
“We are aware of the arrest of an off-duty Secret Service officer by the Miami-Dade Sheriff\u2019s Office. The alleged conduct is unacceptable and stands in stark contrast to the professionalism and integrity that I demand of our personnel,” Richard Macauley, the chief of police of the Secret Service, said in a statement. “This agency takes these matters with the utmost seriousness; consequently, the individual has been placed on administrative leave pending the results of this criminal matter and a complete and thorough internal investigation.”<\/p>\n
Secret Service officials confirmed that Spillman, who is based in Washington, D.C., was in South Florida to provide security for an event and that he was off-duty at the time of the arrest.<\/p>\n
Spillman was booked at Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center as of Monday night on a $1,000 bond. He was assigned a public defender.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A U.S. Secret Service officer has been put on administrative leave after he was arrested for indecent exposure…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":258728,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[1219,28,30,29],"class_list":["post-258727","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-florida","tag-crime-and-courts","tag-florida","tag-florida-headlines","tag-florida-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258727","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=258727"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/258727\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/258728"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=258727"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=258727"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=258727"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
