Speaking of wacko, check this out:
A former quality auditor at a Boeing supplier died suddenly this week after struggling with a “sudden, fast-spreading infection,” the Seattle Times reported on May 1.
Joshua “Josh” Dean is the second whistleblower to die recently after John “Mitch” Barnett died in March from what authorities ruled as a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Mr. Barnett and Mr. Dean were both represented by the same law firm in South Carolina.
John Barnett, a whistleblower who had been involved in a lawsuit against Boeing, was found dead on March 9 in South Carolina, according to local officials.
The 62-year-old was found dead “from what appears to be a self-inflicted gunshot wound,” the Charleston County Coroner’s office said in a statement.
The coroner didn’t release additional details surrounding Mr. Barnett’s death, and the Charleston City Police Department is investigating.
Mr. Barnett, who had worked for more than 30 years at Boeing before retiring in 2017, had become a vocal critic of the company’s safety and production quality practices. At the time of his death, he was a key witness in a whistleblower lawsuit against Boeing, in which he claimed that the aircraft maker had retaliated against him for repeatedly reporting defects.
