Boeing whistleblower found dead in US
3 years ago by Recreational Placebos to c/news
John Barnett had worked for Boeing for 32 years, until his retirement in 2017.
In the days before his death, he had been giving evidence in a whistleblower lawsuit against the company.
Boeing said it was saddened to hear of Mr Barnett's passing. The Charleston County coroner confirmed his death to the BBC on Monday.
It said the 62-year-old had died from a "self-inflicted" wound on 9 March and police were investigating.
Eh. There will always be real conspiracies and then...lizard people conspiracies.
This shit right here? yeah.....they killed him. 100%. No doubt in my fucking mind.
I mean, he was old...people die—
It said the 62-year-old had died from a "self-inflicted" wound on 9 March and police were investigating.
oh shit they totally fucking killed him
He didn’t show any signs of depression or suicidal tendencies… signs like voluntarily flying on a boeing plane.
A conspiracy is when a group plans to do something unlawful. So if it's proven true it's still a conspiracy. It just stops being a theory.
That's the most annoying misunderstanding. A conspiracy is still a conspiracy when you prove it happened/it's happening. Conspirators remain conspirators, which means they were working together to do something illegal in secret. Ok, so now it's not secret anymore, but they still conspired.
The Gulf of Tonkin incident being created by the US was a conspiracy theory until it wasn’t.
Not every “conspiracy theory” is wrong. Sometimes people in charge are actually trying to cover something up. It’s not insane to be skeptical of an official line until it’s backed up with proof.
Lizard people, however, don’t exist.

Speak for yourself, upright ape.
