ANOTHER Boeing Whistleblower "commits suicide"

Man, exposing the corruption of a major airline industry must be really depressing, huh? Weird that it only happens with whistleblowers of this one company. Somebody should probably look into that.

One suicide is tragic and should be investigated but could happen. Two is corruption. Three is we're fucked.
Science Fiction is a genre where anything can happen. Just make sure what happens is enjoyable for yourself and your audience.

The good news is that there's like thirty boeing whistleblowers.

I hope they bought life insurance, cuz Boeing still has that hitman on speed dial.

Pretty sure life insurance does not pay out on a suicide. But I am not sure on Dead Peasant insurance.
The way the world is at the moment I would not be surprised if it did.

Yes, but you can get a gun with more than 30 bullets at Walmart.

OK, to set the record further straight. This isn't the third, this is the first one again. The investigation wrapped up and they determined that the guy who apparently committed suicide in March, in fact committed suicide. The second "suicide" wasn't a suicide, it was an apparently very fast moving pneumonia. There's a third guy, who has the same lawyer as the first two, but he's alive and somewhat concerned that there is some kind of conspiracy.

Can't blame him, this is getting weird.
