Richard Higbie has been locked in various legal battles with the State Department since he joined the agency's Diplomatic Security Service in 1998. In 2001, he filed a discrimination lawsuit claiming his bosses retaliated against him because of the ongoing medical treatment he had to provide his daughter, Logan, who was born with a rare genetic condition that causes seizures and tumors.
Through the course of his fight, Higbie, 42, has filed for whistle-blower protection. And by doing so he has attracted other whistle-blowers who have provided information on alleged misconduct at he highest levels of the State Department.
Higbie's website, The Honor Fight, details his case as well as some of those allegations.
