Other way around, I did a poor job of phrasing it. There are many many whistleblowers annually . We hear about one or two of the high profile ones and of those there may be a suicide. I find suicide less surprising statistically than a company whacking the person. Especially in this case, they whacked him because he is going to tell the world they trained on copyright material? The simpler explanation is the position he was in probably led to a mental health crisis. I imagine a lot of his coworkers were friends, gone, company gone. Lots of potential stress for a younger person.

"But sir, he's already gone public." "Oh no, our secret is out!" "No sir, the thing he revealed was already widely known." "Then we must get rid of him to stop any civil suit." "No sir, killing him actually won't stop any civil suit at this point." "Then get to it post haste! Find me the first-available hit man on X. And keep this quiet."
