[National Review] The agent who attacked a superior in the vice president’s security force has been identified as Michelle Herczeg, an Air Force veteran and former Dallas police officer who left the force in 2016 after accusing a superior of sexual malfeasance and subsequently saw her damages suit dropped in 2021. On Monday, she reportedly "snapped."
Herczeg showed up at the terminal and began acting erratically, grabbing another senior agent’s personal phone and deleting applications on it, according to two sources familiar with the matter. The other agent, a shift leader, was able to recover his phone and then acted as if nothing had happened.
But Herczeg’s bizarre behavior didn’t stop. She then began mumbling to herself, hid behind curtains, and started throwing items, including menstrual pads, at an agent, telling him that he would need them later to save another agent and telling her peers that they were "going to burn in hell and needed to listen to God," a source told RealClearPolitics.
Herczeg also screamed at the special agent in charge (SAIC), rattling off the names of female officers on the vice president’s detail and claiming they would show up and help her and allow her to continue working. At that point, other agents on the scene believed Herczeg was suffering from a mental lapse, and the superior officer, SAIC, approached her to tell her she was relieved from the assignment.
"That’s when she snapped entirely," one source recounted.
