Whistle Blower Retaliation
Table of Contents

Did you expose a fraud? Expose graft and corruption? Did the people you exposed retaliate against you?

Were you denied justice?

You're not alone.

It's hard enough mustering up the courage to expose a fraud, but when the guilty parties retaliate, its an unbelievable hell.

The whistle blower is often exposed to character assignations, harassment, death threats, terrorizing, intimidation, and violence.

But when every government agency with the power and authority to uphold the law turns a blind eye, they have thrown the victim to the wolves.

Blaming the Whistle Blower

When Frank Stephens blew the whistle on American Traveler Press, Inc. (ATP) misappropriating federal funds and funneling taxpayer money into foreign bank accounts, he anticipated justice. He was wrong.

Doing the right thing cost Stephens $120,000 from the fraud in addition to losing his business. El Dorado County officials dragged him through hell accusing him of being part of the fraud and seizing his business. Once it was proven he was the victim, not the accomplice, the county stopped. But no one apologized or made restitution.

The Smoking Gun

They stole her home and then orchestrated a scheme to obstruct justice by lying to investigators, concealing evidence, and perjuring themselves. When she exposed the graft and corruption and the bankruptcy trustee involved, the retaliation was swift and devastating.

Was it retaliation against a whistle blower? WJFA presents the evidence of what happened to this woman after she gave incriminating evidence (the proverbial smoking gun) to the justice department. Rather than investigate, a department head helped the criminal with his next crime against this victim.

Dream Home Turns into Fraud Home

John Thompson put a $2,000 deposit on what he thought would be his dream home in Monterey County, California. When he learned that the purchase price was changed to $536,900 -- putting his dream home out of reach, he uncovered what was a massive fraud ring that involved prison officials and the housing market. He blew the whistle.
