On this episode of Splittin’ the Atom, Jen takes an unflinching look at a whistleblower’s call for a federal investigation into Massachusetts’ taxpayer‑funded immigrant hotel shelter program, often dubbed the “Healey Hotels.” Former shelter director Jon Fetherston alleges a “disturbing pattern” of criminal activity, sexual assaults, fraud, and systematic mismanagement in state‑run emergency shelters. He’s now petitioning the U.S. Department of Justice—and state AG Pam Bondi—for urgent oversight and accountability

We tackle these hard questions:

How widespread are these alleged failures across shelter sites?

Who’s responsible—and why was action delayed?

What happens when whistleblowers face retaliation for speaking out?

Tune in as Splittin’ the Atom lays bare the controversy around misused funds, safety failures, and political cover‑ups. Expect context, expert insight, and a demand for transparency.
