Secret Service Agent's Alleged Hazing Role Sparks Outrage
A U.S. Secret Service employee is under "total lockdown" house arrest on Tuesday after being charged in Florida with attempted manslaughter, stemming from an alleged non-university hazing incident involving membership in a fraternity alumni group, authorities said.
Secret Service employee Marquez Christopher Pinder, 29, was arrested on Monday along with co-defendants Lamar James, 26, and Elijah Delano Dyous, 29, according to Florida State Attorney Katherine Fernandez Rundle.
Pinder was described by prosecutors as the "dean of pledges," according to an arrest warrant filed in the case and reviewed by ABC News.
