Jay Henigan

In the later part of his career, Henigan became a contractor for the CIA. This role involved deployments to high-risk locations, including the CIA facility in Kabul, Afghanistan. Henigan had served one previous stint in Afghanistan as a plumber at a CIA facility before returning for a second assignment.^[5]

During the second assignment, Henigan was fatally shot during a shooting at a CIA facility in Kabul, Afghanistan.^[6] The attack occurred when an Afghan security worker opened fire on Henigan and another American, who was injured.^[4][5] The U.S. embassy in Kabul stated that the attack occurred in an annex of the embassy, and the Afghan security guard responsible for the shooting was killed. The attack was still under investigation, with some conflicting reports about whether the security worker had been authorized to carry a weapon at the facility.^[5]

Henigan's death prompted a response from Sycamore's mayor, Ken Mundy, who noted that Henigan's family were amongst the first settlers to Sycamore.^[5] His friends and family held a memorial in his honor.^[7] He is remembered with a star on the CIA Memorial Wall.
