"If I had a nickel for every Boeing whistle-blower that turned up dead recently, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it's happened twice, right?"
There's no rest for Agent 747
The Seattle Times wrote that Dean "had been in good health and was noted for having a healthy lifestyle," but had died after contracting "a sudden, fast-spreading infection."
Agent 747 has some more sophisticated toys to play with this time. He must have upgraded after the last whistleblower.
Oh no don't tell me he got engine rot
Can't kill them the same way, then it would be obvious.
I mean, suiciding the guy who flat out told his friends "If I commit suicide no I didn't" shows that agent 747 was due to update his techniques and understanding.
His name is Max.
This seems a lot more like an unfortunate coincidence than the first whistleblower, unless Boeing have resorted to bioterrorism to get rid of their witnesses, but I'd hate to be part of Boeing's PR team right now - huge court case where the witnesses against you keep dying doesn't look good even if you had nothing to do with it.
I doubt during Boeing board meetings they are planning assassinations, but I have no doubt there's a wealthy investor or board member willing to kill to prevent losing money.
Boeing does sell to the military.
His mother wrote on Facebook that he had contracted pneumonia in April and suffered a stroke following an MSRA infection.
I'd expect a very very through autopsy,
And a blood panel so thorough his family knows everything he ate in the last month.
I'd expect the body to mysteriously disappear before an autopsy can be performed...
Is this whistle made of arsenic or something?
Comes in an envelope with some lovely anthrax
Putin be like bump it down a notch Boeing.
no one likes a copycat
Fucking hell, why should anyone ever want to fly with Boeing again, if they need to pull this kind of mafia shit to cover up their crimes?
Edit: yeah, they died very suddenly from an infection and stroke. It’s not like they had cancer or anything. So my contention is wrong in this case. Leaving my comment up to memorialize my mistake.
Original comment:
It appears they died from a “natural illness.” Before we go all conspiracy theory here let me remind everyone that a poor diagnosis sometimes LEADS to someone becoming a whistleblower. They are confronted with their own mortality and want to do some good before they go.
The death may not have been a result of the whistleblowing but may have been the cause of the whistleblowing.
Fair point, but damned if it isn’t suspicious.
Lock up the executives this isn’t a coincidence
When you see in movies that the bad guy is bold AF and kills indiscriminately yet no-one seems to be doing nothing you think: meh, that is so unrealistic
yet here we are...
we just need a real life Liam Neeson that would kill all the bosses of Boeing, given that law is useless against the rich and powerful.
Could be coincidence or could be murder. Either way bad time to be a Boeing whistleblower
"Hey how can we repair the recent damage to our reputation?"
"Murder somebody"
I definitely would be wary of having having any business with this company. Seems like a hazard to health.
