Did you hear the one about a Secret Service agent who left a laptop in her car?

Posted on March 17, 2017 by Dissent

From the I-Can’t-Even dept.:

An unoccupied vehicle with Maryland plates was broken into and a bag with a laptop and other items belonging to a Secret Service agent was stolen, sources told CBS2.

The break-in happened outside of the agent’s home in Bath Beach, Brooklyn, sources said.

It’s not like there was anything important on the laptop, though, right?

The laptop contains various sensitive information including Trump Tower floor plans and evacuation protocol as well as information pertaining to Hillary Clinton’s campaign email investigation, sources told CBS2.

There is not believed to be any sensitive information related to the White House on the laptop, sources told CBS2.

Read more on CBS, who does not seem to report whether they learned whether or not the laptop was encrypted.
