Man got past Secret Service and entered Mar-a-Lago during Trump's Thanksgiving trip

Source: CNN

Washington (CNN)A young man entered a restricted area of Mar-a-Lago through a tunnel and wandered around before being apprehended during President Donald Trump's Thanksgiving holiday at his Florida property.

The man, Mark Slattery Lindblom, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to "knowingly" entering and staying in a restricted area on Mar-a-Lago on November 23, 2018, the day after Thanksgiving, according to court filings.

The filings say he entered entering Mar-a-Lago through a tunnel and stayed at the resort until he was discovered by Secret Service agents. At the time, he was staying with family at a "neighboring beachfront property."

Lindblom was charged last December, according to the filings, and he pleaded guilty on Tuesday in an agreement with prosecutors. He was sentenced by a federal judge in Florida to one year probation and a $25 fine.

Perhaps Trump ought to not spend time there. For his own safety.
