U.S. Secret Service Deputy Director Matt Quinn resigns after about a year and a half in the role, according to multiple outlets. Quinn tells colleagues and the public that he is stepping down and says he is working with Director Sean Curran on a transition plan. The resignations come amid controversy around the agency’s counter-drone efforts and related questions about his role.
Reports also link the timing to broader scrutiny of Secret Service performance. One outlet cites attention following Quinn’s comments in a “60 Minutes” interview, alongside allegations of security lapses that, it says, have put President Trump at risk. Other coverage focuses more directly on questions surrounding potential conflicts of interest tied to counter-drone technology. The outlets generally describe a resignation in response to rising internal and external questions, without citing a single definitive finding in the public reporting.
