"For his courage, integrity, and determination, we nominate Xavier Justo for the 2020 Whistleblower of the Year. As a result of his disclosures, like many whistleblowers before him, Justo paid a high personal price. Indeed, whistleblowers who shine light on covert and illegal practices often face retaliation, isolation, and great distress, both personal and professional. "
