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.
