Re: Secret Service falls down on the job Robbing a bank has rather traumatic impacts on the folks working there, and of course, money disappears. That is, someone was harmed.
Now, other than the large amount of egg on the SS's face, I'm not sure what harm occurred. If they got a meal, they should pay for that. But I don't see the need for jailtime. There are real criminals to put in jail.
As to whether they lied to get in, I suppose the first question was if anyone even asked them if they were on the guest list. |

So... These punk assed morons who want to play with the big dogs and do photo ops, they get to go to jail. |

There are real criminals to put in jail. Most states have laws against obstructing a police officer in the commission of his duties. A felony in some states. Obstruction includes lying.
I don't know if a federal law exists (if the Secret Service manned the gates). Or, a DC law (if the DC police manned the gates, which is usually the case).

News reports say the couple insisted they were on the list and that a mistake was made. When turned away from the main entrance they went to a side entrance.
I don't believe it's unreasonable to believe they could be charged with a crime. They clearly intended to deceive law enforcement to enter a secure area. There are plenty of laws which criminalize such conduct in other circumstances (computer hacking, obstructing a peace officer).
There may not be a law for this particular instance. But, it's very similar to others.

Hmm, well, try slipping into a High Security area then get caught and see how that works out for you ok?
The points being made that "no harm was done" or "nothing bad happened" etc are weak to the extreme!
Attendance of any function where the POTUS or VP are snuggling up with attendees should be considered of the Highest Priority.
These wannabe high society scammers should see the inside of a jail cell. |
