(CNN) The brother of an alleged US Capitol rioter is a US Secret Service agent who once led former first lady Michelle Obama's detail, CNN has learned. Preston Fairlamb led my detail then," Obama wrote in "Becoming." Scott Fairlamb's attorney, Harley Breite, told CNN that Preston Fairlamb III was unaware of his brother's alleged actions during the attack on the Capitol. CNN has made multiple attempts to reach Preston Fairlamb III directly. The US Secret Service and Obama's office have yet to respond to CNN's requests for comment.
