Kathy Bolkovac and Larysa Kondracki on ‘The Whistleblower’

The Takeaway

Child sex slavery and human trafficking are crimes often associated with international criminals. But what if the people behind these heinous activities were actually our friends and co-workers? A new film called “The Whistleblower” tells a real story in which this is the case. Larysa Kondracki  is the director of “The Whistleblower,” and  Kathy Bolkovac  is  the inspiration for the film.  While working in Bosnia, Bolkovac uncovered a wide-scale sex slavery and trafficking scandal, involving U.S. military contractors and the United Nations.
