A Secret Service officer assigned to Vice President Kamala Harris’ security detail was removed from her position after she got into a physical altercation with other fellow agents, according to multiple reports. 

Michelle Herczeg began fighting fellow officers Monday morning after appearing for duty at Joint Base Andrews before Harris arrived for a planned trip to Wisconsin, according to the Washington Examiner. 

According to multiple Secret Service sources, she arrived for duty acting out of place, grabbing another agent’s personal phone and started deleting applications from it. The report also stated she was mumbling to herself, hid behind curtains and threw items at fellow officers including menstrual pads.  

Herczeg told her fellow agents they would “burn in hell and needed to listen to God.”

When the special agent in charge of the detail took her off the assignment, Herczeg shoved, tackled and punched him, according to RCP. 

Meanwhile, In December 2016, the fired agent, then a senior corporal with the Dallas Police Department, filed a $1 million gender discrimination lawsuit against the city of Dallas, alleging that she “was targeted for being a female officer and treated less favorably,” according to a contemporary report by the Dallas Morning News.

The lawsuit also claimed that Herczeg was retaliated against because she reported sexual harassment and other wrongdoing by Dallas cops.   

In May 2015, Herczeg claimed she was allegedly assaulted by a male superior officer, “[i]ntimidation tactics were used as investigative tools to persuade Herczeg from seeking criminal relief against the officer who assaulted her,” according to the Morning News.

The lawsuit also stated that Herczeg was not allowed to return to a special crime reduction team after reporting the alleged assault and was also refused overtime shifts, causing “stress and mental anguish from loss in payment compensation.”

Furthermore, Herczeg stated that DPD “tolerates unprofessional behavior such as fraternization and unprofessional male and female working relationships based on an atmosphere which finds the male officer in charge, regardless of rank or ability.”

However, a Texas court dismissed Herczeg’s suit and a court of appeals denied both her appeal in 2021 and her request for another hearing in 2022.
