In this special episode of of the Whistleblower of the Week podcast, host Jane Turner speaks with leading whistleblower attorney Stephen M. Kohn, founding partner of Kohn, Kohn & Colapinto and Chairman of the Board of National Whistleblower Center, about the Department of Justice’s ongoing development of a new whistleblower award program.

“We are on the verge of a major whistleblower development, one of the most important over the last twenty years,” explains Kohn. “The Justice Department plays a critical role in all of the major anti-corruption and fraud cases. So if we can help the Justice Department understand how they have to build this new program, it will be an incredible step forward.”

Kohn and Turner discuss the background of the program and its potential to revolutionize the DOJ’s handling of whistleblower cases and its ability to fight fraud and corruption. Kohn also outlines the key elements which the DOJ must implement for the program to be successful.

Kohn urges whistleblower supporters to join National Whistleblower Center in calling on the DOJ to follow proven best practices in the establishment of its new whistleblower award program.
