💥 SHOCKING SECURITY SCANDAL ROCKS GOP GOV CANDIDATE VIVEK RAMASWAMY’S BODYGUARDS WERE UNLICENSED IN OHIO.c1

Republican gubernatorial contender Vivek Ramaswamy — a businessman and rising political figure — is under fire after it was revealed that members of his personal security team were not properly licensed to serve as bodyguards in Ohio, raising serious safety, legal, and political concerns.

The revelations emerged after one of the men working as a bodyguard for Ramaswamy’s family was arrested on federal drug‑trafficking charges, prompting deeper investigation into the qualifications of the entire security detail. Subsequent reporting showed that not only was this individual unlicensed, but several others associated with the same private security firm lacked the necessary state credentials to operate legally in Ohio.

arrested on charges related to trafficking fentanyl, methamphetamine, and other narcotics through the mail. While this individual’s arrest centered on drug charges rather than any campaign‑related violence, it spurred law enforcement and reporters to look more closely at who was tasked with protecting a potential future governor.

After the arrest, the campaign announced it would be ending its contract with the private security firm, acknowledging the gravity of the situation and the disturbing news about the guard’s alleged criminal activity.

Further reporting uncovered that multiple members of the campaign’s security detail provided by the same private firm never held the proper Ohio bodyguard licenses — meaning they were neither certified to work in protective roles nor legally authorized to carry any standard defensive weaponry under state law.

According to the coverage, Ohio does not recognize out‑of‑state security licenses as valid, so even experienced guards arriving from elsewhere would need Ohio certification to work there legally. Training and registration — including a 20‑hour training requirement, fingerprinting, and background checks — are mandated but had not been completed by several of the guards on Ramaswamy’s detail.

The reporting highlighted specific security personnel — including additional guards besides the arrested individual — who were also operating without proper credentials, compounding concerns about overall oversight.
