Synopsis

Though a painful truth, discrimination ranges from the much-needed survival tools in making reasonable everyday choices to being downright evil, fostering division and injustice. The FBI made unintentional supervisory decisions, and when confronted with allegations and neglected remedies, leaders turned to retaliation.

Can you imagine facing discrimination in a place dedicated to protecting your rights? Can you believe those sworn to guard citizens against crime could be the victims of bias and prejudice within their ranks? This shocking court decision shook the foundation of one of America's most formidable institutions - the FBI!

Meet Bernardo "Mat" Perez, an FBI Special Agent who dared to rise against the system. This ethical stalwart rallied the troops - 310 Hispanic FBI agents, to be exact - to combat the insidious bias, prejudice, and discrimination excused by the needs of the Bureau. The battle by Hispanic Agents led to a landmark victory that altered the landscape of the FBI and law enforcement nationwide.

Samuel C. Martinez, who stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Perez, unveils the grim truth about the agency's entrenched "good ol' boy" culture in his jaw-dropping exposé, "Systemic Evil." This chilling revelation is a stark reminder of how managerial decisions can negatively affect employees and be labeled systemic discrimination. Prepare to have your perception of discrimination changed. Click to discover the shocking truth NOW!

About the Author

Samuel C. Martinez served twenty-six years with the Federal Bureau of Investigation as a special agent. A benefactor of the GI Bill after serving in the US Navy, he graduated from the University of Texas at El Paso before the FBI recruited him.

Over the years, the FBI assigned him to myriad postings in San Francisco, Chicago, Denver, Mexico City, Los Angeles, Washington, DC, and Montevideo, Uruguay. He worked cases involving white-collar crime, domestic terrorism, narcotics, foreign counterintelligence, and undercover assignments. While he received commendations from the FBI and other government agencies, an Equal Employment Opportunity complaint that took the FBI over twelve years to resolve in his favor, prohibited him from advancing up the FBI's ranks. He joined Mat Perez in filing an employment discrimination class action lawsuit.

After retiring from the FBI, he served as a security consultant and had a successful career in real estate. He finds his greatest joy in serving people.
