As you can see down below, it has been revealed that Higgins was arrested for driving under the influence back in 2005. This arrest happened in South Carolina, however, nothing came of it as the cop never showed up in court. Had things gone differently, then perhaps the Gaudreau tragedy could have been avoided.
It has also been revealed that Higgins worked for an organization called Guadenzia which ironically enough, is a drug and alcohol rehabilitation facility. He has since been removed from his post at the company. Guadenzia offered a statement on this decision, Saturday.
