A former Boeing employee who blew the whistle on critical safety and quality control issues within the company’s production line was found dead in his truck in South Carolina.
The Charleston County Coroner’s office confirmed the death of prominent whistleblower John Barnett, 62, in a statement to BBC.
John was meant to show up for the second part of his testimony for a bombshell lawsuit against the aerospace giant’s production line on Saturday. But after he failed to show up, his hotel was asked to check on him.
