Texas Nurse Whistleblowers, One Year Later – Part 1 In this first part of a two-part interview, AJN editor-in-chief Shawn Kennedy talks with Texas nurses Vickilyn Galle, Anne Mitchell and colleague Naomi Warren about their roles and experiences as whistleblowers, when they felt patients were receiving unsafe and inappropriate care by a physician. The case involves small-town politics and collusion that resulted in arrest and criminal charges, prosecution of Anne Mitchell, and finally acquittal in February 2010 on all charges.
