Wait, did the second whistleblower die as well? Did Agent 747 get him, too?

"If anything happens, it's not suicide."

[–] yesman -2 points 7 months ago

A guy who committed suicide had advanced knowledge of his own death? Inconceivable!

[–] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago (2 children)

I mean, he died of a respiratory infection.

What a lucky coincidence for Boeing.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Sure, but it is coincidence.

If there was a way to give someone pneumonia that was guaranteed to develop into a more serious infection just about every spy agency would be bumping people off left, right, and center with it.

How do you know they aren't!?!?!?

[–] [email protected] -2 points 7 months ago

Not sure if you're being sarcastic here.

Pneumonia contracted from two self inflicted gunshots wounds to the back of the lungs. And to think they thought they could get away with it.

[–] SpaceNoodle 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Sudden-onset MRSA. Happens all the time to healthy, fit individuals.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

It wasn't sudden. He got pneumonia, which developed into MRSA over two weeks in the ICU.

[–] SpaceNoodle 5 points 7 months ago (1 children)

He went from healthy to dead in two weeks.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

Yes.

That's why doctors and medical researchers are constantly trying to develop new antibiotics. Infections are scary and for decades getting killed by one was basically unheard of for healthy people in the developed world.

I mean, as bad as this looks for Boeing, I don't think they're competent enough to pull off a successful assassination.

[–] spicytuna62 17 points 7 months ago

They probably would have left a trail of nuts and bolts behind them. We'd find them pretty quickly.

We can call them just BONK for they aren't as good at building planes anymore as they are at hunting whistleblowers. This case's probably not on them since it's too unpredictable, but the last one was very suspicious.
