John Kiriakou

Biography:

John Kiriakou is a former CIA operative and senior investigator for the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. A target of the Obama administration's war on whistleblowers, he remains the only US official to serve time behind bars after revelations of CIA "enhanced interrogation" practices, despite openly opposing the torture program. He maintains that his case was about exposing torture, not leaking information, adding, he "would do it all over again."
