Airline Travelers in Danger of Aerotoxic Syndrome Inhalation of toxic airplane cabin air causes an illness that has been named Aerotoxic Syndrome. The cabin air is contaminated with oil from the jet engines because a supply of warm compressed air is pumped into the cabin which comes from the air passing through the airplane's jet engines.

Vicarious and Whistleblower Trauma in Those Who Protect and Serve Law Enforcement Officers can themselves become Medical Whistleblowers. In the performance of their duties Law Enforcement Officers can confront medical fraud, abuse, neglect and human rights violations. They deal daily with crime, criminal suspects, and the vulgarities of the imperfect court system. Law enforcement officers become hardened to the trauma they see every day but are not unaffected.

US Congressional investigations don't stop abusive rehab centers The US House, led by Congressman George Miller, conducted investigations by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) during the 110th Congress (2008). These uncovered thousands of cases alleging child abuse and neglect since the early 1990's at teen residential programs. These programs are governed only by a weak patchwork of state and federal standards. Yet we still do not have the legislation necessary to protect children

Expanding Network of Abusive Guardianships In the U.S.A. the guardianship system offers few procedural protections, and has spawned a profit-driven professional guardianship industry that often enriches itself at the expense of society's most vulnerable members--the mentally ill. Yet despite numerous calls for reform, most states have done little to monitor professional guardians and prevent abuse and neglect.

Patients On the Verge of Suicide or Murder Did Adam Lanza's mother know that psychiatric drugs might make her son a killer? There are good reasons for that FDA warning on the very drugs parents give their children multiple times a day. But doctors refuse to discuss the adverse side effects with patients and their families, they down play the real dangers of these psychiatric medications and they often do not inform families of the risk.

Prevention of Torture - A Lot Still Needs to be Done The President of the United States Barack Obama signed the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Disabled Persons (CRDP) which is a human rights document that hopes to make human rights protection a reality for the world's 600 million disabled persons. Certain rights that are considered to be 'non-derogable,' meaning that states have no legal basis, even in a state of emergency, to refuse to honor these rights.

The Guard Dog was Silent in the Night - Part I Why would medical professionals today who pledged to obey the Hippocratic Oath not come forward when they saw abuse, neglect and human rights violations? The answer to that question is very complex and rooted in the undercover system of how quality control happens in the American medical system.

Contemplating the Death Penalty and Justice Human rights advocates have expressed concerns about the appropriateness of the death penalty as it is applied here in the USA. Statistics did not prove that it was a real deterrent to crime. Instead by 2001, the murder rate in the death penalty states was 37% higher than the rate in states without the death penalty.

Law Enforcement and Medical Professionals Should Collaborate to Protect Patients Surprisingly Medical Whistleblowers can come from many different professional disciplines. There are many ways in which Medical Whistleblowers and law enforcement officials interact. Some are positive collaborations in regards to investigations of problems within the medical community. Some are negative interactions leading to retraumatization of an already threatened and intimidated witness.

The Spiritual Journey of a Whistleblower The act of Whistleblowing requires ethical and moral decisions that define a spiritual journey. The challenges and tribulations of the Whistleblower's experience cause them to look for inward strength and spiritual direction.

Long term effects on survivors/victims of abuse Torture is the calculated physical and psychological assault on the individual, a practice used to instill fear, punish or degrade, to dehumanize, or to obliterate the self. It is often said that anyone who has been tortured remains tortured, long after the physical wounds have healed. Children in the U.S.A. have been tortured within residential treatment facilities.

Dangerous Off Duty All police officers bravely face daily the possibility of their own death on the job and also the possibility that they might need to use lethal force against another. The use of the anti-depressant drug Luvox caused a New Jersey cop to go on a killing spree in 2002. FDA black box warnings about violent behavior and suicide do not stop the sale of these medications. When will policy reflect the true reality of these drugs?

Privacy, Sealed Records and the Public's Right to Know There is a public nature to a dispute in front of a court in spite of the dispute starting originally in a private matter. There has been increasing use of "secret settlements" or agreements between a plaintiff's attorney and the defense attorney to keep certain information from the public. When does the public's right to know, outweigh the privacy rights of the parties involved?
