While USS had previously told Fox News that the agents had been disciplined in February, paper works show that five agents were not disciplined until April, when senator Rand Paul, RK called, records.

UsS interviews show that the main site agent was not ready and coach, and his colleagues said that she had no idea what she was doing in Bater.

The documents show that some officials have never been walking on the site. For example, the responsible private agent, when interrogated, said that the main advanced agent, as the documents appear, did not appear unprecedented at a security site at the assembly site because they were in the hospital to exhaust heat.

But the documents also provide a deeper diving in the six agents who were disciplined due to failures in security details.
