  7. I reported someone I knew when I was 17 to the FBI in relation to some of the issues Boeing is facing with it's jets. Specifically the faulty doors and panels.

    The person I report worked at Boeing making the stencils that are used for assembling the planes. I heard that he worked on the stencils used for manufacturing the the exits and entry corridors. He worked their with a friend of his who always did what he said like a bully and his smaller friend in school. I believe both of them got their jobs at the company because their fathers worked in the government in the area of defense.

    Prior to working at Boeing he worked at Cambridge Analytics in Eastgate Wa as an intern in their demographic targeting divisions doing data gathering.

    He told me one night that he idolized Putin because of how Putin held off the German police from obtaining KGB secrets from the German embassy after the fall of the Berlin wall with an AK-47 by himself. He said he wanted Russia to be victorious over the US and that he thought they were superior.

    He said these things one night after he showed me his father revolver in his bedroom and told me he was suicidal. He was suicidal because his father blamed him for his death, both leading up to his death, and on his death bed. His father accused him of causing his pancreatic cancer by poisoning him. He didn't say why or how, just that the entire time his father was dying he treated him with contempt and hatred.

    I believe he hated his country because of the pain he felt towards his father who was a patriot in his eyes.

    I did not witness this person do anything, only his words at that time, and the fact that he held both of these jobs.

    I have not heard any response or received any acknowledgement of the report I submitted.

  11. 9-3-2024 Revealed that Boeing ignored flight safety and used defective parts.

    The Boeing whistleblower mysteriously committed suicide before appearing in court.

    Barnett had been giving evidence in a whistleblower lawsuit against Boeing in the days before his death. He was scheduled for further questioning last Saturday and when he failed to show up, police went to the hotel where he was staying to investigate and found him dead in his van in the hotel car park.

    John Barnett, a retired quality manager who was locked in a lengthy legal battle with Boeing over production standards at its 787 Dreamliner factory in North Charleston, shot himself to death. expressed concern.
