America's Unrecognized Heroes & Martyrs

America has a host of real heroes―or are they martyrs?, not the ball players that Americans adore, but those former federal agents who suffer greatly for attempting to report corruption, some of it deadly, that they had discovered during their official and professional duties.

The various books listed at this site describe the plight of those former insiders, former federal agents, who put the lives of the American public ahead of their own, and who then paid the awesome consequences.

The awesome consequences were paid by them for several reasons, including, for instance:

America's Unrecognized Martyrs

Many of the people who have provided information about the tragedy-related corruption in these pages and in the related books had suffered greatly, both personally and financially. When everyone else did nothing, they, in a David vs. Goliath-like fashion, acted to protect the lives of others and protect national interests. They met the definition of martyrs, and remain unrecognized in the United States where the masses consider ball players as their heroes. How pathetic, their conduct and values!


In 2006 and 2007, there was considerable media attention focused on the political manipulation of the U.S. attorneys by the Bush administration. But that attention focused only on the peripheral problems in the Department of Justice. The people in control of the Department of Justice have for years misused their awesome power to destroy people, to put people in prison, on fabricated charges, for various reasons. These reasons include, for instance:


Sampling of Former Federal Agents who
Suffered Retaliation for Protecting the Public

John Carman


Richard Taus

INS Agent Joseph Occhipinti 

Discover how Department of Justice prosecutors helped continue drug smuggling in the New York-New Jersey area, and facilitated the funding of the New Jersey terrorists who bombed the World Trade Center in 1993, by filing false charges against INS agent Joseph Occhipinti. Full story in the book, Drugging America, and highlights here.


INS Agent Rumaldo Solis

Discover how Department of Justice prosecutors protected a DEA agent that was a kingpin in drug smuggling along the Mexican border and who killed a Mexican, in Mexico, when the hapless Mexican discovered the DEA agent's identity. The full story in the book, Drugging America, and highlights here.


Ronald Rewald

Titular head of a covert CIA operation based in Honolulu, Ronald Rewald was falsely charged with criminal activities by DOJ prosecutors conspiring with CIA officials, so as to divert attention from the CIA involvement after the cover was blown on the operation by a Honolulu television reporter. Ten years in prison, failing health, and IRS hounding to this day, was part of the price paid by Rewald and his family for the culture of corruption that controls American today. Details in the books, Disavow: A CIA Saga of Betrayal; Explosive Secrets of Covert CIA Companies; Defrauding America; and Drugging America. Highlights here.


Stephen Swanson

Stephen M. Swanson, retired DEA agent. After he retired, while carrying out verbal authority from DEA agents to infiltrate a drug smuggling operation, DOJ prosecutors charged him with being the kingpin in the operation. During trial, and under heavy emotional stress from the false charges and false arguments presented to the jury by the U.S. attorney, Swanson committed suicide in 2000 so that his dying wife would not be denied the medical benefits that were part of the retirement benefits, but would be lost if he was held guilty.  Details in the book, Drugging America, with additional details here.


Mary Diefenderfer

Mary Diefenderfer was a federal aviation safety inspector-investigator, the principle operations inspectors for Alaska Airlines. She left her government position after being repeatedly harassed for reporting the defective maintenance practices at Alaska Airlines. Shortly thereafter, an Alaskan DC-9 aircraft plunged into the ocean off Southern California, with the death of all on board. The NTSB found defective maintenance related to lubrication of a jackscrew that controlled the horizontal stabilizer. Numerous other examples of FAA personnel in similar situations is described in the book, Unfriendly Skies: 20th & 21st Centuries.


Darlene Fitzgerald

After years in criminal justice and law enforcement, including U.S. Customs, Darlene Fitzgerald quite her Customs employment over protests of corruption that allowed suspected shipments of drugs in railway cars and vehicles to pass uninspected.

Rodney Stich


These are only a few examples. Many more are described in the books written by former federal agent Rodney Stich. These are only the tip of the iceberg. Media people don't report them, so the only people knowing of the countless human tragedies arising from the arrogance and corruption in the three branches of government are the victims, if they are still alive, and their families and friends. One of the most detailed and documented example of the literal army of lawyers, law firms, judges, and DOJ lawyers attacking for years former federal agent Rodney Stich, solely to prevent the public from learning about the evidence that he had acquired over the years during his David vs. Goliath attempts to protect American interests from the literal Trojan horse corruption that is mutating throughout government and society. Made possible by public indifference. Stich even wrote a book about his plight, David vs. Goliath: 9/11 and Other Tragedies. But who cares about what was done to someone else!

One of the charges for which hundreds of people have been sent to federal prison, and labeled criminals, was based on alleged exaggerated statements made on loan applications, even though the loans may have already been paid off, or being paid on schedule. Think of all the people who have exaggerated something on their loan papers, especially with the subprime loans, who are equally "guilty" and by all accounts, "unindicted criminals."

And some of these victims are "little-old-ladies," nothing is too much for prosecutors who want to progress by putting people in prison. If you don't believe it, ready Defrauding America and Drugging America.


Members of Congress: Years of Obstruction of Justice

Despite the testimony and other information given by these and countless other government agents to members of Congress over the years, the only reaction had been cover-up, which under the criminal statutes constituted obstruction of justice and misprision of felonies. And in practice matters, the cover-ups enabled many national tragedies to occur over and over again, as well as catastrophic harm to national security. Only way this tragedy and corruption will be halted is by a small but persistent group of people showing some sign of outrage, courage, and integrity.


Plight of Whistleblowers Against High-Level Corruption

There should be another name for those foolish people in government who attempt to protect the people and the country who seek to report and expose corruption of those in key government positions who have control of all forms of retaliatory power. What is needed is meaningful legislation that corrupt judges cannot make meaningless.

The judges of the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in a May 30, 2006, decision that government power can be used to retaliate against anyone in government exposing corruption, and that includes corruption subverting the United States. That decision is known as Garcetti  v. Ceballos, 128 S.Ct. 1951.  

In 2007, the Senate was ready to vote on a whistleblower bill to provide protection to government whistleblowers, but Senator Tom Coburn of Oklahoma raised objections, and the vote was blocked. By a very undemocratic rule, any senator can raise objection to further vote on a bill. (A prior Oklahoma senator, Senator David Boren, chairman of the aviation subcommittee, also blocked actions that would result in many preventable airline tragedies, as detailed in the book, Unfriendly Skies: 20th & 21st Centuries.)

Stich ran into this while he was a federal air safety agent as a vote was about to be taken to investigate the FAA. That one vote kept the lid on the scandal that had already taken many lives, and would take many more in the years ahead.

Upon hearing of Senator Coburn's action, Stich sent a letter to him, with copies to the other members of the Senate judiciary committee, objecting to the hold and giving examples of how urgent the legislation was. (MS Word) (Adobe PDF)


Are Present or Former Government Agents Agent
Fools for Attempting to Protect Americans?

The facts show that the answer to that is an obvious "yes!" In instance after instance, and as shown in the books, those government agents knowingly endured great personal and financial harm. For some, their noble efforts resulted in death of life in prison.

They foolishly sought to inform the public of the Trojan horse-type of corruption responsible for many forms of human tragedies, and for subverting the country. They faced, by themselves the wrath of those in control of great government power that would be used against them. Each of them thought that the American public would respond, and that at least one of the many government and non-government checks and balances would protect them.

If nothing else, they are America's unsung and ignored martyrs.


The Pathetic American Public

The great harm inflicted upon these courageous people for attempting to protect the public was compounded by the fact that the public wouldn't lift a finger to help them. Let this be a lesson to the very few who may contemplate doing the same; the people they are trying to protect don't give a damn!

"What, me care?" is the attitude, until they became the victims. No wonder the United States is in such bad shape! Like sheep, the public ignores the hard information from courageous government insiders, preferring the simplistic lies of spin masters like Russ Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, President George W. Bush and their shills.


The list of such human tragedies inflicted upon good people by the arrogant and corrupt people in the FBI and Department of Justice is endless.

The books, Unfriendly Skies: 20th & 21st Centuries, Drugging America, and Defrauding America, have countless examples of how dedicated and courageous federal agents seeking to protect national interests have suffered terrible consequences at the hands of corrupt prosecutors in the Department of Justice, and the history of congressional cover-ups of these corrupt activities. And we mustn't overlook the role of the do-nothing American public!
