Richard Broughton is a Star Fleet officer who was on track for advancement to the Admiralty until an incident involving Jack Carter ended any further chance for promotion. Although details of the incident remain a mystery, he has clearly fallen out of favor with Star Fleet Command; relegated to duties and responsibilities well below those that would normally correspond to anyone holding the rank of Commodore. Broughton continues to hold a significant grudge against Carter; having vowed to do whatever it takes to ruin the career of the captain of the Farragut.
