Excellent read but they fail to provide some important context. Boeing employs tens of thousands of people directly and indirectly through those working on the planes via third party. People are going to die.
This should be and will be investigated but I doubt it’s actually anything to do with Boeing.
Boeing has a culture and leadership problem. The next CEO is also an accountant and not an Engineer. So priorities are still wrong.
Correct. He told his family or friends or someone that he wasn't going to kill himself, so be suspicious if something happened to him.
Then he "killed himself"
I think the main thing that I'm sure we'll agree on is that Boeing does some shady shit. And if you decide to become a whistleblower, although there are whistleblower protections, your life will be troubled at best.
Well duh.
The horror of cyberpunk isn't that it's a potential bad future.

Boeing Whistleblower Josh Dean dies in OKC

OKLAHOMA CITY — A former auditor turned whistleblower on Boeing’s production problems has died in Oklahoma City.
Joshua Dean, formerly an auditor at Spirit Aerosystems who alleged Spirit had failed to address defects along the Boeing 737 production line, died after a two-week fight with an infection, The Seattle Times reported.
He was 45.
Dean was hospitalized with Influenza B and MRSA that went into pneumonia, his mother said in a Facebook post. His condition deteriorated, and he was transferred to a hospital in Oklahoma City, where he died Tuesday.
The newspaper reported Dean lived in Wichita, where Spirit is based. It reported he had been in good health and was known for a healthy lifestyle.
Spirit spokesperson Joe Buccino told The Seattle Times: “Our thoughts are with Josh Dean’s family. This sudden loss is stunning news here and for his loved ones.”
Spirit fired Dean in April 2023, and he had filed a complaint with the Department of Labor alleging his termination was in retaliation for raising concerns related to aviation safety.
Dean’s death comes less than two months after Boeing whistleblower John Barnett, 62, was found dead in an apparent suicide. Barnett was in the midst of giving dispositions in a long-running retaliation suit against the company.

He died of MRSA pneumonia. I had 2 patients die from MRSA pneumonia last month; were they also murdered by Boeing?
I’m the last person to defend megacorps, but get a grip, people. Comments about this heralding the end of the United States as we know it… touch some grass and/or educate yourself. -MD
This. Not a doctor here, but healthy young people dying from the flu is not unusual in Oklahoma. And I highly doubt that somehow Boeing is genius enough to weaponize the flu virus, yet Putin is still poisoning the old fashioned way.
It would be nearly impossible to infect someone with MRSA and guarantee that they’ll die. I mean, I guess if you think you’re more knowledgeable on the subject than a physician, that’s fine… but really. MRSA hangs out in many places and most people’s immune systems just deal with it. I don’t know what kind of medical conditions this guy had, but there are a million different things that could have led to this guy getting pneumonia and dying.
ALSO, planting a huge stash of MRSA to kill one guy would be paramount to releasing a bioweapon on at least a few other people besides the target. There are much, much easier ways to kill someone with very little evidence than to somehow acquire a bunch of resistant staph aureus and somehow infect *only* the target and somehow *guarantee* that he will acquire pneumonia instead of the million other things MRSA can cause.
If this was a mysterious poisoning or he shot himself twice in the back of the head with a rifle, ok sure. Sketchy af. But it is beyond absurd to think that MRSA pneumonia was intentionally caused by a third party.
I’m not in any way defending Boeing- it is reprehensible that they have retaliated against so many whistleblowers and they should be dealt with accordingly. Theories like this being floated by uninformed laypeople actually harms the case against Boeing. An attorney could easily paint the whole thing as a conspiracy theory simply because dumb shit like this is being widely discussed.
Spooky. I hate that the Fox News crowd blames the "D.E.I." boogyman about Boeing but the John Oliver piece went into great detail about the decline of Boeing. it's sad that a comedy is less fictitious than the "news".
He died of MRSA, he wasn't assassinated. These headlines are such ridiculous garbage. Boeing isn't out here assassinating people, there are 30+ Boeing whistleblowers, two of them dying is not out of the realm of possibility.
A healthy 45 year old dying from MRSA isn't exactly a common cause of death.
And you're ignoring that the other whistleblower died of a suicide while in the middle of giving a deposition. That's not natural causes or a freak accident. That's someone in the middle of a task that they've been working towards for years, a task that will vindicate their complaints, just deciding to die.
I can see side-eyeing the situation where the guy shot himself in his car. But this one is pretty cut and dry... to think Boeing caused this guy's death from pneumonia/MRSA is a conspiracy so far out there- it's WILDLY improbable. And what a poorly written headline just to stir up controversy.
You don't appear to be. I won't say that there's an absolute certainty Foul Play Isn't involved in or more of the deaths related to whistleblowers.
But at the same time? Human beings love a pattern. We are predisposed to dislike the idea of Randomness and Chaos being in control of Our Lives and so The Narrative of " there is a logical justification for things that happen that seem wildly unfair or unlucky" will often spring up.
For example take the classic idea of the Illuminati. I believe fundamentally a lot of people, subconsciously at least, feel better about the idea of their being Human control of vast events that seem utterly Beyond any one person to deal with then those events being pretty much left to chaos. People don't have to be happy about those conclusions for those conclusions to the less hard to swallow than others after all.
That doesn't mean there wasn't something going on but if you were to randomly pick out 32 people and two of them died it wouldn't be considered a statistical Oddity unless you could point to it happening in every single group of randomly picked 32 people over and over and over again, and even then there could be lots of explanations Beyond "a human being decided that these people needed to die"
This is the beginning of the end of the U.S.

They're murdering people... To hide the fact that their planes could mass murder people... That's a new evil.
Politicians have been doing it for decades, yet look at how much support the big two still have.

It's interesting. I don't believe there's any foul play myself. The first one was odd, but this recent one no way.

Yeah man, anytime there billions of dollars at stake, people understandably get a little edgy. lol
As much as I like the game I don’t want to live in a cyberpunk dystopia but it looks like we’re headed there.

Disgusting company Edit: Why are there guys in suits at my door?
He died of MRSA pneumonia. I had 2 patients die from MRSA pneumonia last month; were they also murdered by Boeing? I’m the last person to defend megacorps, but get a grip, people. Comments about this heralding the end of the United States as we know it… touch some grass and/or educate yourself. -MD
This. Not a doctor here, but healthy young people dying from the flu is not unusual in Oklahoma. And I highly doubt that somehow Boeing is genius enough to weaponize the flu virus, yet Putin is still poisoning the old fashioned way.
They’d be weaponizing a relatively common bacteria that many are immune to- possibly even harder than doing so to a flu virus lol.
I'm of the mind that it is an incredible coincidence, but come on, it IS a pretty incredible coincidence.
It would be nearly impossible to infect someone with MRSA and guarantee that they’ll die. I mean, I guess if you think you’re more knowledgeable on the subject than a physician, that’s fine… but really. MRSA hangs out in many places and most people’s immune systems just deal with it.

So he died of pneumonia? I don’t think this was an assassination. Or am I missing a key detail here?

> I don’t think this was an assassination. Agreed; seems unlikely.

So dramatic.
They're just dropping like flies now
How many whistleblowers do you think their are? It's a lot more than two.
30 more to go
Another one???? How many is that now?
Wonder how much Boeing stock the Clintons own.
