Josh Barnett
Josh Barnett was a quality manager at Boeing known for his courageous whistleblowing regarding safety lapses in the production of the 787 Dreamliner. His warnings about ignored safety checks and a toxic culture of silence within the company were largely overlooked, leading him to file complaints with the Federal Aviation Administration. Barnett's tragic death in 2024, ruled a 'self-inflicted' gunshot wound, prompted his family to file a wrongful death suit against Boeing, claiming that the harassment he faced for speaking out contributed to his demise.
