Drudge Retort: The Other Side of the News
Wednesday, October 01, 2025

In an extraordinary breach of protocol and professional ethics, a New York Police Department detective has been suspended without pay following an audacious attempt to infiltrate the prestigious Ryder Cup golf tournament by impersonating a member of former President Donald Trump's security detail. The incident, which occurred at Bethpage Black on Long Island last Friday, has raised serious questions about security vulnerabilities at high-profile events attended by former presidents and other dignitaries. Detective Melvin Eng, who was reportedly on sick leave at the time, arrived at the golf course fully equipped with tactical gear, successfully bypassing multiple layers of security including Secret Service agents and state police officers who were legitimately tasked with ensuring safety at the event.

The detective's unauthorized entry might have gone undetected had he not accidentally dropped his magazine in front of actual security personnel working the event. This careless mistake immediately exposed his deception and led to his suspension and administrative charges for theft of services. Security experts are particularly concerned by the fact that, according to one police source, Eng "got in there with his gun, past Secret Service, past the state police" " highlighting a potentially dangerous security lapse at an event where organizers had implemented TSA-like screening procedures specifically because of Trump's attendance. The former president was present with his granddaughter Kai, an aspiring golfer, creating what could have been a highly vulnerable situation had Eng's intentions been malicious rather than merely seeking unauthorized entry to a sold-out sporting event.
