    Boeing whistleblower. Worked there 30-years and was on travel giving depositions and showed up dead in the carpark. Initial report is a “self-inflicted” wound, but even if Boeing didn’t kill him, it doesn’t look good.

      He ALREADY testified: he was found dead AFTER.

      Barnett's body was found in a vehicle in a Holiday Inn parking lot in Charleston on Saturday, police said. One day earlier, he testified in a deposition about the string of problems he says he identified at Boeing's plant where he once helped inspect the 787 Dreamliner aircraft before delivery to customers.

  Mid trial death of a key witness? 🤔

  I’m guessing he somehow managed to shoot himself in the back of the head…5 times
