"FBI Director Kash Patel's girlfriend Alex Wilkins has been given a full FBI protection detail in an unprecedented use of the agency's resources. Wilkins, a country singer, has a security detail made up of elite FBI agents, MS Now first reported. These agents were previously assigned to a SWAT team in the FBI field office in Nashville, where Wilkins primarily resides."
"SWAT team agents on a detail with Wilkins would presumably be unable to respond or delayed in responding to crises that might develop in their territory, such as mass shootings or terror attacks, sources told MS Now, speaking on the condition of anonymity. Wilkins' security detail marks the first time a girlfriend of a high-ranking FBI official has received such protection while not sharing a residence with their partner."
Alex Wilkins, a country singer, has been assigned a full FBI protection detail composed of elite agents previously on a SWAT team in the FBI field office in Nashville. SWAT operatives on the detail would likely be unable or delayed in responding to local crises such as mass shootings or terror attacks. Wilkins' detail is reportedly the first time a girlfriend of a high-ranking FBI official has received such protection while living separately from the partner. Former senior agent Christopher O'Leary called the assignment an abuse of position and misuse of government resources. The move contrasts with recent revocations of protection for several political figures and comes amid scrutiny over Patel's reported use of an FBI jet.
