Part 3/8:
Dr. Wood's primary legal challenge revolves around her effort to file a Request for Correction (RFC) and a qui tam whistleblower lawsuit against NIST. Following the alleged injustices in their initial investigations, she sought accountability for what she described as fraudulent representations in the agency's reports.
The RFC and Qui Tam Lawsuit
Dr. Wood's RFC targeted NIST, asserting that their conclusions regarding the collapse of the WTC were scientifically inaccurate and misleading. When her RFC was ignored, she escalated her efforts to file a qui tam lawsuit, aiming to hold the private contractors accountable for the scientific fraud she believed they committed.
