Why is that important? No you assume they are/were killed until someone has some real fuckin proof about it
Well, all the evidence points to a suicide so you don't really have a point here.
Haha okay present your evidence
Do you have any evidence that invalidates this?

They just fell out of a window. The news said. Supported by other state apparatuses.
Now I'm not really running around believing this kid was killed I truly dunno him or this situation enough but to read one article about something like this and just take it at face value isn't it. Look at Boeing I think three whistleblowers died in connection to them, look at Edward Snowden, look at how people act in the Trump administration, they were afraid to be whistleblowers. There's a slew of assassinations in the news.
I don't think it was a suicide, it also could've been a suicide but to really plant your feet on your evidence being this article. I dunno bro I think it's a little foolish.
I didn't even say he wasn't killed.
I said, I'd wager there's a statistically significant amount of whistleblowers who are liars and end up killing themselves when their lie catches up with them.
You all blew it out of proportion in part because of the snowball effect and in other part because of poor reading comprehension.
The next generation is truly taking hold.
uh huh
how old are you Mr jumps to defend what the article says and then backpedal?
You can't prove a negative.
That's literally how police investigations work, you start assuming a crime has been committed and try to see if you can find evidence of a crime being committed.
You don't start assuming suicide by default. Not unless you're a corrupt cop anyway.
Yes you can. Mathematicians do it all the time.
But that's beside the point. I can prove you didn't kill yourself by showing that someone else did
This isn't proving a negative? Lol.
This whistleblower is dead, they would be suspect #1 along with close family and friends. This is literally what the first step of an investigation should look like.
