‘It’s Not Suicide’: Boeing Whistleblower Warned Friend Before Death.
John Barnett, 62, was in the process of testifying against the Boeing Company regarding the aircraft manufacturer’s manufacturing processes when he was found dead in South Carolina with what appeared to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. Now, though, a family friend of Barnett’s says that, before he died, he warned her that if he were found dead, it would not be the result of a suicide.
A hotel staff member found Barnett’s body in his pickup truck; he was holding a silver pistol in his hand and appeared to have died from a single gunshot wound to the head. A deep investigation into the company’s safety and manufacturing processes stemmed from flight that saw a Boeing 737 Max 9 lose an entire door plug while in the air in January.
