Since his firing BofA has ruined his life/credit/relationships and he will probably be in court for the rest of his life.
I'd really like to hear more, as I'm having trouble understanding what they could do other than take him to court for stealing documents or whatever. Specifically, how did they ruin his relationships? Do they call and hang up when his girlfriend answers? Do they call his friends claiming to be him, impersonating his voice, and saying things like, "you know, your feet really smell"?
The moral of the story is: don't be a whistleblower unless it's for some area of industry where the government gives you immunity and a few million in cash. Or, be prepared to never work in that industry again: this is whistleblowing 101, so don't be surprised.
(Not that I think he is blowing the whistle on anything, really. It sounds like he was upset that he was fired so he tried to make his Outlook dump sound interesting enough to get himself some media attention. It didn't work.)
He also withheld information from the investigators. If you blow the whistle, you're expected to give everything up, not just the stuff that doesn't make you look bad. THAT'S why they nailed him to a cross; he tried to double-deal.
And the people who were and still are committing tax fraud on a scale that blows away what any individual could do on their own?
They're fine, thanks. The guy who tries to blow the whistle gets nailed, though.
That's not why they nailed him to the cross, that's how they did it. The why is evidenced by the fact that they're not going after the actual tax cheats in addition to him.
I think there is an important part of the story missing between: "If I wasn't blocked from the position I deserved..." and "...patrol officers came into my house to accuse me of being a terrorist."
