Secret Service Agent Resigns Over Information Leak
James C. Bolton Jr., a Secret Service agent who reportedly disclosed political intelligence on 1972 Democratic candidate Sen. George McGovern, has resigned after an extensive agency inquiry. The investigation found the information passed to the White House via his father, not to any third party, though it still violated agency policy. Bolton protected McGovern during the 1972 campaign and the elder Bolton, a former aide to Rep. Glenn Davis, denies any improper disclosure.
