A close family friend of John Barnett said he predicted he might wind up dead and that a story could surface that he killed himself.

    Everyone knows this isn’t suicide but they are so brazen because there are no consequences. What do we need to do so that there are?

      Probably something illegal that would end with consequences on us instead.

    "We are saddened by Mr. Barnett’s passing, and our thoughts are with his family and friends.”

    I have a feeling those ‘thoughts’ are of how to clean up other loose ends.

      He is dead, what attention does he benefit from?

        I think they’re referring to the friend making the allegation. Personally, I wouldn’t put it past a huge multinational that stood to lose lucrative contracts.

      He could have been a troll on the internet, for example.
