Faulty Bulletproof Vest Case Featured on CBS's "Whistleblower" Series

On Friday, August 17, 2018 at 10/9c, the CBS summer standout series "Whistleblower" will feature the captivating story of Dr. Aaron Westrick, a whistleblower represented by Washington, D.C. qui tam attorney Stephen M. Kohn. Westrick went up against Japanese Fiber Manufacturer Toyobo and Second Chance Body Armor, the largest body armor manufacturer in the U.S. at the time, in a False Claims Act case that lasted 14 years. The qui tam lawsuit resulted in the United States recouping millions of taxpayer dollars, Toyobo alone paying $66 million to resolve claims of fraud brought by Westrick and pursued by Kohn.

I am delighted to hear that damages were awarded, but saddened that a bunch of folks did not do time over it.
