  His warnings were about the fuselage construction. This doesn’t appear to be a structural failure, of the type he was worried about.

    He raised concerns on many issues including the fuselage issue >Salehpour, who has worked at Boeing for more than a decade, says he faced retaliation, including threats and exclusion from meetings, after raising concerns over issues including a gap between parts of the fuselage of the 787. That particular issue you quote, was only given as a single example

    Oh ! , you're right I'll edit the comment (wont let me edit anymore, i hope others read this comment). I mixed him with the other Boeing Whistleblower John Barnett Thanks ! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Barnett_(whistleblower) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Barnett_(whistleblower)

      And to be fair, there is AFAIK absolutely no reason to believe Jon Barnett's didn't take his own life. Indeed there is overwhelming evidence that he pulled the trigger, alone. Now whether he was driven to suicide by Boeing's unrelenting and unending persecution campaign against him as a whistleblower is another, perfectly valid question.
