However, one thing that every government employee knows is that they can't arrest you for fictional stories. In contrast, if you're saying the truth, then you're facing decades in prison. So what are you going to do if you need to make some money with books and talks, etc. Tell the truth or lie?

They certainly can arrest you for fictional stories told under oath and in sworn statements (which is what this whistleblower gave).
