Richard J. Griffin
A native of Illinois,〔(Nominations Sent to the Senate )〕 Richard J. Griffin was the American Assistant Secretary of State for Diplomatic Security, as well as an Ambassador from June 2005 until November 2007. His early career was with the U.S. Secret Service. He served as the Inspector General in the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs from 1997 to 2005 and returned to that office as the Deputy Inspector General in 2008.〔http://www.va.gov/oig/about/deputy-inspector-general.asp〕
As the Assistant Secretary of State for Diplomatic Security appointed by George W. Bush, he was responsible for the department's oversight of private security contractor Blackwater USA, hired to protect U.S. officials in Iraq. The infamous Blackwater Baghdad shootings occurred under his aegis, where 17 civilians, including children, were killed. A critical review by the House Oversight Committee found that his office had failed to properly supervise Blackwater and he subsequently resigned in November 2007.〔washingtonpost.com, October 24, 2007, State Dept. Ousts Its Chief of Security by Karen DeYoung ()〕
Just months after this, Griffin was hired at Veterans Affairs as Deputy Inspector General by then-Inspector General George Opfer; the two men were part of a tight-knit community of former Secret Service guards.〔washingtonpost.com, April 24, 2015, Head of accountability at VA forced out of previous role for deadly failures By Luke Rosiak ()〕 Here he was the lead investigator looking into long wait times for veterans seeking health care. He is famous for having concluded he was “unable to conclusively assert” that delays at the Phoenix VA Health Care System had caused patients to die.〔By Emily Wax-Thibodeaux November 1, 2014; Lead investigator of wait times at Veterans Affairs still gets criticism over report ()〕
Opfer resigned in 2013, and Griffin became Acting Inspector General. He continued to face criticism and on the wait times affair and on July 6, 2015 was replaced by Linda A. Halliday.
