WASHINGTON, Oct. 29 (UPI) -- An official who investigated the U.S. Secret Service prostitution scandal in 2012 resigned his position in August after being questioned about hiring a prostitute himself.
Current and former U.S. Department of Homeland Security officials said David Nieland, the investigator, quietly resigned after he was implicated in a Broward County, Fla., prostitution investigation, The New York Times reported. A prostitute identified Nieland's photograph, saying he had paid her for sex, the Times reported.
