2 hairstylists arrive in the Salahi probe
Pete YostTwo hair stylists from a fashionable salon are appearing at the federal courthouse as part of a grand jury investigation involving the couple who got into a White House state dinner without an invitation.
The grand jury appearances by Erwin Gomez and Peggy Ioakim will cover their conversations with Tareq and Michaele Salahi the day of the Nov. 24 dinner. The Salahis spent hours being groomed at the salon in the fashionable Georgetown section before heading for the White House.
On Tuesday, Gomez and Ioakim arrived in style, riding in a stretch Hummer limousine that dropped them off at the front of the courthouse. After the security breach involving the Salahis, three Secret Service officers were put on administrative leave.
