Overview
- Secret Service agents surrounded and arrested Ryan Fournier and Jordan Daley outside their CityCenterDC residence on June 12, and agents recovered a counterfeit Secret Service badge in their apartment.
- Fournier was booked on a contempt charge for allegedly violating a court order by texting an ex while wearing an ankle monitor in an open domestic-violence case.
- Daley faces a charge of falsely impersonating a federal officer after affidavits and witness statements say he used the fake badge to skip lines, get better service, and pressure Uber drivers to break traffic rules.
- A tip summarized in Daley’s arrest warrant warned that the pair planned to attend the Freedom250 UFC event on the White House South Lawn with guns, which helped prompt the Secret Service inquiry.
- The men offer conflicting accounts about who promoted the ruse—Fournier says he was cooperating with investigators while Daley says Fournier introduced him as an agent—and both cases remain under active investigation with upcoming court dates in July.
