ending right. not so fast ends with many whistle blowers taylor by the government of monaco. we're very happy to be joined by jonathan taylor. jonathan, thank you so much for joining us. we're happy to have you, jonathan. it's unusual that a case of which the blower retaliation is so clear cut usually wasn't blowing as complicated and messy. not so. with this case, you saw illegality, and you reported it. your company and its subsidiary admitted their guilt and paid a huge penalty. the story should have ended right there. what happened next? and how did monica get involved? so it's, it's about what happens upon discovering the cost, right? corrupt, positive, lesbian, and it's out reporting. and it was help ends on coming up as much as possible

because and i think disclosing to the all thoughts ease as little as possible. this became evidence of a question on the, on the ice stuff. it's feeding your thoughts ease with the full story. i'm starting with the us securities and experience commission like graduating into about 56 of the prosecutors. this is that so it was, um, i started these spins overseas fell attempts to minimize the level of disclosure out formats i became every member. well, if you will, um. oh no, today, for the companies being fined, about $847000000.00 us dollars spent over 6 different prosecutors. again, had it had this way and the fine would have been considerably less that will be

improvements of a to pharmacy who's and counseling. but it was my involvement in blowing the whistle, which was if you will quite successful as far as the whistle blaine is concerned, but certainly not in terms of why private life. um uh the uh the full um folded um espn um was a uh, a golden a suite for monica. it was a blue chip company. but monica, once it opens the head closer in monica, the relationship between the company and monica was close. monica is on the sized spams or related products. then the on extracts and business functioning platforms . on it stands. they going for a missions to get the space and espn representatives. click tablets even open the

price at the parentheses. and so full espn 2, i'm sofa. um, i also have being the product biggest private sector in troyer in monica. monica was not happy with me. i'm curious to know to who came to your defense, what was the reaction of the british government, for example, the british government over the past 20 years. certainly has been on the wrong side of national security was the blowing. but on these financial matters, we've actually been pretty good where they helpful to you. so the, the british government got involved relatively lights on light sites, information to the series for office in mountain. and they do use that to that benefits in various prosecutions. when foss flooring i was on the, the next edition proceedings stuck in croatia,

the initial response public response was what connection was said between taylor being a whistle blower. and his being arrested on the inside of the red notice in the prospect in july 2020. what was the relationship? ultimately there was an emergency question in the house of parliament and the house of commons on the following day. the house of lords. and that's the defense was, was constantly repeated. however, such as the trust parties support for my case. and the fact of the government needed to intervene within the week. the governance line had changed to one of kevin for i should need to treat to tell you that as a result of a, it's really difficult to ascertain what help they want to me. they probably said they wouldn't get involved in legal proceedings in a 3rd party country, which of course, it does what it wants to. i don't know what went on behind prize tools when

various governmental officials came to christ. i don't know to what extent my case was discussed. i got nothing to demonstrate. it was so mild, so it would be on the face of it to the support from the government was, was a putting a business. how were you able to deal psychologically with that year of uncertainty in croatia? you were separated from your family, you were unable to earn any money. you had the prospect of arresting deportation hanging over your head. how did you get through it? so very sure what you need. um i have a really good support, right? don't need of them. we're supplying n g a is john list and some politicians it was led by i'm off in bright. so you probably have heard of, i'm from the moody official secrets on the test. don't say he was um i'd

like to have some jobs so i was over in cold sites with him before my interest. he was introduced. it's in, he was an interesting story on, on my experience before christ and he put together some t people. so it was very helpful and getting by in price that i had this support network because we were in regular common sense. the start was on a daily basis they, they made the wills of difference and got it and supports especially you through the press and, and call themselves with a. so it was, it was seeing people do the best for me and really trying which instill confidence and hoping be the best, the best offices that question were speaking with the attorney and oil whistleblower jonathan taylor. we're going to take a short break and hear more about his experience state to. 2 2 2 2 2

the, [000:00:00;00] the missed the shower and the bone, the soldier monument was erected in 1947 in the estonian capital by the soviets

authorities. originally, bells have found the burial site of troops, remains its memorials of the soldiers who gave their lives in world war 2 was the risk of the informing service. give william for the infinity trip. in 2007, the stony government decided to relocate the monument from the city center for, for one year on that for me, for some color cops, wanted to buy me to a, to really the sooner frustrated to move divided the population is stony, is large of russian speaking communities strongly opposed to an intense rising, broke out and tell in these have since become the as the problems night drives me to bring people across

the watson back to the whistle blowers. i'm john kerry onto were speaking with british attorney and oil was the blower, jonathan taylor. about his experience after blowing the whistle on an international corporate bribery scandal. welcome back, jonathan johnson. let's walk through your whistle blowing. you were an attorney with a major company, s b m offshore. how did you become aware of bribery that was taking place? and once you realized what was happening, what did you do? so i'm a, an external lawyer for a client will, before i was the lawyer was the law firm got in touch with my immediate boss, the general counsel about some potential shenanigans involving the noise clouds, a level energy of the turnouts. that's a spam have been paying bribes in order. so we, in

a contract in connection with that when she in equitorial skinny, it was payoff, the presence saw amongst others. and so that lawyer rang up like the general council on the basis that he knew him having access for x on the other compliance issue a few years before. now the key to this was that my general counsel and the majority of the council. they had no idea about the privacy of people that knew with the management boards of a salesman and to see people in the accounts. but certainly as a result of that, who those certain people on the outside certainly became aware of what turned out to be a huge history of bribes, being paid by the company. you $250000000.00 in the 5 years up to 2011. a lot, a seuss gates opened in the account since and we were based in molly and switched and suddenly gave us all this information about payments to agents. and i was

provided with circle agency agreements on the which the bribes are paid, saving. i was in possession of an awful lot of information. within days it became clear that the count see, wanted to cover up as much of its history. it's, it's a golden history as possible and i prefer to be marginalize it to the patrol guinea bribe, which is relatively small amount compared to the price being paid in brazil for example. what i'm gonna and so i mean they probably become aware of the fact that the, the, the company was trying to do the wrong thing. i didn't want to have anything to do with that. um, i mean, he wants to come way back side if you will assign those very well. the way i have a new york times reports about the beaumont bribes and mixer trends and have a lower. is it very much involved in that? so my re, max was to get in touch with the securities and exchange commission through my us

attorney. and i scratched a whole lot of documents information on it. it decided that it didn't have jurisdiction suggested i go to the f b i minutes, that the justice ministry department of justice. so it was in that order that's events i'm forwarded. i'm ultimately, um, i do have some tools that was helping i have the epi, i in washington, they came to see me helping you. so helping a busy day and prosecute to helping the task prosecute to helping the switch. both of these are a mess. this 847000000 in fines. i was only doing what i saw is the, the tricks, and you don't go to justice. voluntary as was the plan just to goes with the i j and the dots. prosecute who seals. you just go there and just tell them a little bit of the story. you want to give it to what, what you can you tell them the full story and that was my position. it was found to

be untenable by the company's management. i'm like that for less of a company here with a young family with us a jump to go to. as i said at the opening of the program, you did the right thing. you reported on illegality. the authorities took over, they found your allegations to be credible, and they prosecuted the case. that should have been the end of the story. so why were you pursued? what did the prosecutor in monaco think he was going to find and why forbid your departure from croatia? so let's take a step back, 1st of why was subject to a what we call a slap. a strategic lawsuit against public participation for defamation and a closing statement. so i've made which of course with true has been with trying to effectively destroy pm. so i've run out of money, won't be able to defend myself and shuts up. that's what they wants to do. so this is last i was doing my tool as well as things prosecute is they just want to tell

you that to shut top. ultimately, they failed. i found an accident for oh, also voting that's from books law firm in, in the netherlands. and he felt the defense was a 123 exhibits. and espn pulled the case. but then a same sign they were, they were, they were reporting me to the money i guess prostitutes. so monica always remembers the place where i'm pretty much school the brides was born, can execute it ends up being reported to monica and full attend, since extortion, which was 10. so it was, you know, since but the semester they, they, they still reported me. and of course, monica was very happy to take up the reasons they didn't and full me up until the 27th saying they, let's see the charges made in 2014. and then in 2018,

the message was dismissed by the correctional course in one, okay, from multiple pages of the european convention on human rights, they were rising to be that language. they didn't understand and that she was gaps and time. it wasn't being conducted in a timely manner. however, it was allowed to like a phoenix in the ashes be born. and the next i knew, falls forward so july 30th, 2020. finally holidays and stuff and looked down at the 1st knocked out anyway. and i was, i was arrested have to both nick, at ports using the reason, given for my rest of the box that was checked on the, in simple red most this paper was a bright green corruption which is like the next thing i knew i was across race it for, for 5 days, was to finest offenders and a, a drugs center. unfortunately, i'm on a pill i was allowed to helps protects reports every, every,

to twice every week to the police station types of pay. 15000 years about my passports hopelessly and hopeless cases. but ultimately, my international outside the cabinet determines and that's the red light. this has never been issued in this way to display data. in some hope that's modification never have allowed never. that's another thing to sway the bible into 2 issues at night just and it was withdrawn on the 17th of december. my french lawyer, william bold, all across the world. i was already in the way. in the meantime, was speaking with the investigation judge in mamma to about was voluntarily coming out to see him and it was all fixed. i was now to to get it out towards the end of december 2020. however, the much the public prosecutor had to withdraw all for the request. so my extradition, i'm in christian, otherwise chrysler will pounds to keep hold of me. unfortunately,

the prosecutor didn't do that and i, i was so i have to stay out same price if it was still another 7 months i have to prosecute allows me to travel someone. okay, to see the investigating judge um i was a set these, i'm still remarried, so i went to investigative my nice and i'd still be working in the law. so it's pretty much the science as a vendor of revenge. you know, i repeat as it was the biggest private sector employed in one of the ties between states and the company a very long and is very tight. and i was on the wrong hands of persecution by the states as monica. what role do you think s p m off shore had with all of this? i can't believe that a prosecutor would just decide on his own volition to target a whistleblower who had come forward to report on an illegality. any legalities that was successfully prosecuted?

the prosecutor in monaco must have been put up to it. can you speculate on that? was the company behind it? perhaps the government might have been behind it. i was one of the, the 1st people to make your thoughts he's aware and was able to prosecute him to 0 as to the corruption aspects of process, the national gods company of opposite over espn, funding bribes to some executives. and as a result of my information, um, what was that as of ration costs again? and it turns out that the experience bribes events as they what that was if you aspect and then a whole lot of a visit in firms and comp tells paying bribes and, and it was inmates. and i believe national companies ultimately this lead to shoes protests at one point. they will have

a 50 protest and 50 visit in cities east protests, of at least 1000000 people. and ultimately sold to the doubtful of the, the presidents juma roost. she was in the pos, administer for energy, and therefore the chairperson of patch address. um and uh she, she looks uh, i the tot incompetence for, oh, this guy on the watch. so just to see if my son has perhaps nothing about what was going on with, with nothing really nothing else to that. in addition, i should at the espn, russo found to be paying the work is spotty. that was the peasants potty. the. the $1300.00 for the 2010 presidential campaign. i'm in support of children who systems the 1st campaign. so what we're looking at that was the corruption was now on the mining democracy and what is the 4th largest democracy in the world? so you know about bribes and i go to the tv people below the poverty line where

types of traps. so i'm asking millions where that money should really be invested in the infrastructure of schools, roads, and hospitals. let's say essentially the expense of, of, of the fix of corruption. so perhaps our house to the east, the beginning of the end of june, the recess. he was ultimately of costing peach a time was as presence of brazil. the further information i found out since i left this bmw is the, the towns and see who did. i need to just come on board about about a month before these revelation surface. he was found to have him sign off on a private just being well reports. it was just the $35000000.00 to go to accept subtracts, including the van, had someone go, let's see, and go to the muscle in the gas company, some improvement. well, the since

a he went on to the vice president of the country. so the soonest, i think, $5000000.00. so i have managed to mess information, something which i didn't even realize i had that's i was able to divulge a 2021. the thoughts of h is mind is often the espn, but the overall message is, you know, i have the kitchen sink, so i have to be, yes, i was very successful with so buying but i have to suffer. and obviously it says, pay simply play to me in the world who puts the supplies the wells since the notes ready for us. there is no way of it as i should have suffered. what's i've had to suffer for bringing chief to the faces of i'm of corruption

to justice. i have paid and knows pesto penalty. my life has been changed. um, well katy forever. i was on a very happy family. hold of a on the 19th of july. i'm now, as i say, i'm divorced, i'm jobless. and the last 2 years my in laws that should never have happened. i'm hoping that low make is the well, uh, listen to my town and it's not something i looked today. it was something to attain the opponent a realize that's robust laws needs to be passed for the protection of a visual pass. i'd like to thank our guest whistleblower jonathan taylor and thanks to our viewers for joining us today, i'd like to leave you with the words of psychologist dr. jennifer frasier, who said, quote, speaking up is one of the most difficult that's a person can carry out. it requires immense courage and sacrifice and quote, she's right. it does be courageous. be like jonathan taylor. i'm john kerry aku.

and you've been watching the whistle blowers, we'll see you next time. 2 2 2 2 2 the so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy from foundation, let it be an arms race based on a very dramatic the only personally i'm going to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very clear to get a time time to sit down and talk. take a fresh look around. there's a life kaleidoscopic, isn't just

a shifted reality distortion by tell us to do vision with no real opinions. pictures designed to simplify will confuse who really wants a better wills, and is it just as a chosen few fractured images presented to this, but can you see through their illusion going underground? can the public upset crushes in russia's region which borders with ukraine, qualified to get reports, and it comes down in the same area. the city of little guns is filled by you create new forces pulling fridays to miss all the types with less 6 children injured. and from the french prison, nicholas cosy faces, the new trial over allegations of receiving comes pain from the, from libya, with links with former lead to,

oh my goodness. the just going to 7 pm on saturday evening k and the rest and capital. my name is peter scots and here's how the world is looking this weekend. well,
