U.S. Customs and Border Protection

In the first half hour, Jane Turner interviews whistleblower Julia Davis. Ms. Davis was a Customs and Border Protection Officer who was retaliated against for exposing serious shortcomings in the processing of aliens from countries known to harbor terrorists. Jane and Ms. Davis discuss her whistleblower experience portrayed in the recently released documentary “Top Priority: The Terror Within.”

In the second half hour, co-host Lindsey Williams will interview Mike Kohn, one of the lead attorneys for whistleblower Dr. Kenneth Jones. Kohn will discuss Dr. Jones’ recent court victory against Harvard Teaching Hospital. The victory clears the way for Dr. Jones to put Harvard Teaching Hospital on trial for research fraud in one of the largest NIH grants for Alzheimer’s research. Tune in to learn about how the False Claims Act protects tax dollars invested in scientific research.
