It wouldn't be as direct as if the order came from the boardroom. There are thousands of "stakeholders" bound to lose their gravy train, lobbyists, suppliers, "consultants", military industrial complex. It's easy to for one of these to send a "contractor" to stalk, hold the person's arm and "shoot himself" dead. I am not an investigator but this is very very suspicious. He delivered 2 days of testimony and is about to third one. If someone is suicidal they wouldn't be this motivated to go through the testimony of 2 days and skip the third. Also suspicious is BBC becoming "the owner of the stories" instead of local news outlets.The PR machine is in full swing.
- eastbound 3y agoSo what you’re saying is Boeing has an army of 2000 lobbyists are all ready to kill for financial gain?
- rightbyte 3y agoThere are a lot of shady people involved in the military industry.
- DANmode 3y agoWhy all, when one would do?
- mschuster91 3y agoNo, only one of the thousands needs to be willing to go that far. The power of stochastic terrorism...
- shiroiushi 3y agoNo, he's saying that there's an army of lobbyists that see Boeing's financial health as necessary for their (clients') own. The lobbyists don't work for Boeing. Imagine you had a highly lucrative SMB selling Microsoft services to some government/institutional customers, and some big court case threatened to cause MS serious harm, affecting your ability to sell those MS services. If you're a sociopath, you might want to shoot the star witness.
- waffleiron 3y agoBoeing, a defense contractor, relies on killing people for financial gain.
- wycy 3y agoKilling for financial gain is literally the business model of a large branch of Boeing.
