    He was 45, had been in good health and was noted for having a healthy lifestyle.

    Looks like Boeing is just taking a page right out of Russians books and doing obvious murders in the open now.

      It’s the chain of events that could be suspicious, or totally random.

      A person has trouble breathing, which could have been induced, or just bad luck, then goes to hospital and dies of MRSA - which also could have been induced, or just bad luck.

      The most logical explanation is that bad things happen to people all the time and it’s usually not murder.

      However, because of the widespread press coverage of the previous “suicide”, it makes sense that if additional whistleblowers were being killed, that the methods would grow increasingly complex and obfuscated.

      Remember, these were all long time employees. Boeing is going to have all sorts of information on them, including their medical history and that’s not even factoring in the resources they have available.

      It’s not hard to imagine that they would know how to create a situation where a person gets hospitalized, without causing suspicion, and have the resources to finish them off inside that hospital with something like a rapid MRSA infection.

      Or maybe all this means is that corporations really are people and Boeing is the reincarnation of Jesus Christ. Now, God is an enacting revenge on the people who have testified against his favorite son, and our Savior: Jesus Boeing Christ.

        This only matters if 1) you don’t want anyone to know it was you, or 2) you want people to know it was you to send a message, and you’re not afraid of any repercussions.

          If you’re Boeing, or even just a rogue Boeing executive/team, the best way to make sure you fail at this would be to leave an obvious trail of bodies.

          These ambiguous deaths are plausibly unrelated enough to justify no one looking too closely, but are clear enough for their intended audience.

          Hell, even if Boeing just got insanely “lucky” and these two deaths are as they appear, it’s still going to have a massive chilling effect on anyone else who might have been considering coming forward.

    Hey guys, unless I missed Boeing getting into biological warfare, I’m pretty sure an infection had nothing to do with them. It’s funny to circlejerk though, I know.

    Boing is starting to have a bigger mysterious trail of bodies around them than Hilary Clinton.

      “The Congressional Record (1994) stated that the compiler of the original list, Linda Thompson, admitted she had “‘no direct evidence’ of Clinton killing anyone. Indeed, she says the deaths were probably caused by ‘people trying to control the president’ but refuses to say who they were.”

      “Several sources have discredited the conspiracy theory, such as the Congressional Record,[4] the Lakeland Ledger, the Chicago Tribune, Snopes and others, pointing to detailed death records, the unusually large circle of associates that a president is likely to have, and the fact that many of the people listed had been misidentified or were still alive. Others had no known link to the Clintons.“

      It’s really competitive of them trying to knock Putin off of the top of the charts.

      As someone who’s not following 🇺🇸 news, what does that (Hilary) part means?

        There’s a conspiracy theory (not entirely without merit, but generally assumed to be baseless) that people with negative information about the Clintons end up dead suspiciously. Epstein was one such person, under this theory.

          Why didn’t they kill Monica? This conspiracy theory is actual garbage.

          Both of the Clintons are garbage human beings who didn’t/don’t deserve to be in office (which is true of most politicians). Bill definitely coerced women into sex. But when the loudest critics of the Clintons are tinfoil loons, it takes all of the air out of the room.

            That’s the biggest hole in the theory for me. If they’re willing to disappear people, there are a lot of people they seem to have missed.

            There’s a sort of counter theory that says that the Clintons themselves started the conspiracy theory as a way of putting all Clinton dissent under the heading of a conspiracy, and honestly I find that much more believable.

          Thanks for explaining.

          I never heard of that. and for the Eipstein, I always associated his info with powerful people, but not specifically with the Clintons ಠ_ಠ

            Right, there are a lot of possible names to blame for Epstein for sure. Like I said, it’s a theory that’s largely considered to be baseless. The Clintons have a lot of faults, but I haven’t seen any indication that they’re into assassinations.
