A former Boeing employee, who was found dead in March, accused the company of “countless” violations of US law in testimony given just before his death.
John Barnett claimed the firm tried to “eliminate” quality inspections at a plant that makes 787 planes.
The former quality control manager had been giving a formal legal deposition against the plane manufacturer.
The transcript of Mr Barnett’s deposition has now been released by his lawyers. The lengthy document runs to more than 140 pages.
The bulk of Mr Barnett’s deposition focuses on the period from 2010 onwards, after he had moved from Boeing’s facility in Everett, Washington to what was then a brand-new factory in North Charleston.
Murdered whistleblower. Murdered. Barnett is a martyr and a patriot.
Careful, you might get two tickets to paradise (so it looks like an accident)
This makes no sense.
Tell me who did it: The CEO? The share holders? A disgruntled co-worker?
Then give me motive. Nothing got stopped from coming out. And even if he had testified, no one is ever going to be punished. Money will smooth over problems as always.
So unless you can make a convincing argument, this seems very unlikely.
Tbh it doesn’t even have to be boeing who did it. Boeing is important to the government (actually multiple governments) and it’s not exactly a stretch to consider said governments are involved.
Also if we go with thinking boeing did do it, look at almost any organized crime related murder.
Or some combination of the two.
People have been killed for far, far less. And there are a lot of people who will hurt other people purely for revenge, regardless of any other factor.
The point is, I don’t think it’s as much of a stretch as you seem to think.
I just don’t see it.
Any wealthy person simply uses wealth. If this was not America, I would think maybe. But this is America. It is easier to buy and sell favors then bother with messy killings.
Ok people have been killed for things. So who did it. And more importantly, why? There is zero gain here.
Unless it a reverse ploy, where the threat is against Boeing… if they don’t get their shit together …
Maybe to act as a chilling effect on future whistle blowers?
Lol get out of here
Well, you see, I don’t have any proof, hell I don’t even have any evidence. But it fits my world view, and that’s all that matters.
Also everyone else lacks the ability to think critically and I’m totally rational.
Is he the one that said “if anything happens, it’s not suicide” before he was found dead from “self-Inflicted” gunshots?
Don’t forget that he wanted to drove home that night, but was forced to stay one more night by Boeing’s lawyers to give an response in court in the morning.
I didn’t even know about that, thank you for being terrifying
Did he “kill himself” at a Boeing office?
Well that’s sketch as fuck.
Right on the edge of suspicious, wouldn’ you say?
I mean that and the third bullet that news isn’t reporting…(Kidding about 3rd but his ☠️ is 100% on Boeing)
Yep, that’s the one.
Indeed, he did.
This looks bad for Boeing.
They should probably do a stock buyback in response.
Should probably have the reporter whacked.
BOEING KILLED JOHN BARNETT
OK, so Boeing cannot be a murder, there has to be someone who actually did it. So who would that be? The CEO? A hired hitman? Who?
And WHY? It would make no difference, the testimony is already out there. It would be cheaper and easier to simply lawyer up and fight, then to hire and then have to pay off somebody. Because that somebody would always have dirt on whoever did the hiring.
Maybe I am wrong, but this really makes no sense.
-
his testimony was not over, he had another round the next day
-
he said that he was not suicidal. He saw it coming.
Until someone confesses, the group with the most motive is Boeing. Bag them all and make them squeal.
What is the motive? and exactly who cares when money can make this go away? But no, murder will make everyone not care, really? This is absolutely silly.
What is the motive?
Why are you acting like this is some impossible mystery that we’ll never understand? The motive is either “silencing him so he can’t reveal more”, “intimidating other potential whistleblowers”, or a combination of both. Is this some grand revelation to you, or are you deliberately acting like you’ve been dropped on your head every day since birth?
and exactly who cares when money can make this go away?
Yeah, we’re actively seeing how money has made all of Boeing’s problems go away. No investigations are happening, there could not be any issues if further whistleblowers step forward 🙄
But no, murder will make everyone not care, really?
Again, think about the motives for more than half a second, and you’ll see that the idea isn’t to “make everyone not care”.
No need for personal attacks. You did not answer the question. What is the motive? You describe actions that can be taken, but to what end? More money? More power? Simply a fuck you? Worried they are culpable and might go to jail?
Now tell me exactly WHO this person is, or are you suggesting that is a group of people? Board of Directors? The more people who know the more people will need hush money, the more complicated it gets.
And for what? Nobody is going to lose money, nobody is going to jail. Not if there are more whistleblowers, not if their are fines, nothing. The company will bear the weight of the problem, the government will socialize the solution to fix the problem, and the people with money will walk away or somehow get wealthier in the process.
So excuse me for thinking a bit critically about this conspiracy.
Unlike you, Not everyone is for sale.
So you agree with me? Or did someone name a price to whack this guy, so they were for sale…
-
When I booked a flight in a few months overseas, I made sure it was on all Airbus. Because Boeing is scaring the fuck out of me.
Guys I’m not talking ethics I’m talking free money.
Now is the time to invest in Boeing.
Their balls have never been stomped flatter.
They still have Military contracts.
WWIII is on the horizon.
This is not investing advice. Allegedly.
I guess you are joking but Boeing is a company of supreme national importance. If/when the government bails them out the government must get a majority stake in the company!
lol, like that will ever happen
