An FBI agent in Connecticut claims in a lawsuit that he was retaliated against after complaining that he was passed over for a supervisory position, the New Haven Register reports.
Agent Kurt Siuzdak, a lawyer and 17-year veteran of the FBI, said the Connecticut office is dysfunctional and managed by fear.
Siuzdak said he was retaliated against with a baseless investigation after he launched the complaint.
His wife, Heather Clinton, told the Register that the lawsuit was a last resort.
“This is an organization that he believes in. It’s an organization that is very powerful. And he wants it to be better,” she said.
