    In this episode of Whistleblower of the Week, host Jane Turner speaks with former FBI Special Agent Emily Fertitta, who breaks her silence on the retaliation she and her husband, Valentine “Val” Fertitta—a decorated Marine Corps officer and FBI agent—have endured for exposing misconduct inside the Bureau. From denied promotions and mental health evaluations to “national security” investigations and coerced interrogations, Emily shares their harrowing fight for justice in the face of relentless retaliation. Their story is a powerful warning about what happens when whistleblower protections are ignored, and national security is weaponized to
    silence dissent.

    Leading US whistleblower attorney Stephen M. Kohn joins host Jane Turner on this episode of Whistleblower of the Week. Kohn discusses the National Whistleblower Center’s (NWC) participation in the 11th Conference of States Parties (CoSP) to the United Nations Convention Against Corruption, emphasizing the urgency of bolstering whistleblower laws worldwide. The NWC is advocating for international support of NWC’s proposal to promote whistleblower protection and awards worldwide. Kohn states that the momentum built on the fight against corruption must not be lost with the shift in US enforcement policy.
