Missouri House Speaker Faces Whistleblower Lawsuit Over Alleged Retaliation

Dana Rademan Miller accuses Dean Plocher and chief of staff Rod Jetton of misconduct, mismanagement, and creating a culture of fear.

Miller's lawsuit seeks over $25,000 in damages for alleged policy violations and abuse of authority.
The lawsuit follows an ethics investigation into Plocher's handling of an $800,000 software contract.
Miller claims Plocher dismissed concerns about his treatment of female colleagues, calling them 'stupid.'
Plocher is accused of threatening witnesses and obstructing the ethics investigation.
Despite the allegations, Plocher remains in his position and is running for Missouri Secretary of State.
