Whats your source on that claim? Because I found a few interesting sources.


"Rodney Barnett said working at Boeing created stress for John. “He was suffering from PTSD and anxiety attacks as a result of being subjected to the hostile work environment at Boeing, which we believe led to his death,” the brother said."

By the way do you even know what this deposition was about?

"Barnett originally filed a complaint with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration in January 2017 alleging that Boeing retaliated against him. After nearly four years, the agency concluded that there was no retaliation, a decision that Barnett appealed about three years ago. His case has been pending since then, as the two sides have gone through discovery and prehearing motions..."

The deposition was part of Barnett's appeal of OSHA's determination that Boeing did not retaliate against him for whistleblowing. So tell me, why on earth would a fortune 500 company worth $112 billion GAS about a lawsuit WHICH THEY ALREADY WON? What would that payout be if OSHA reversed their findings? $10 million? $50 million in the worst case scenario? Boeing is losing $2.5 million every day on the KC-46, AF1 and Starliner programs. It's not even a drop in the bucket. But that's going to be enough to not only throw away a golden parachute but also to risk spending the rest of their life in prison because they might increase their annual losses on those 4 budget items by 5%?
