(eyewitness, 9-11/Untimely death)
A key 9/11 witness who was reported dead without further explanation, aged 53. No death certificate has ever been found, and his entire family went missing at the same time.

Barry Jennings was an important eyewitness to the events of 9/11. At the time, he was the Deputy Director of the Emergency Services Department for the New York City Housing Authority. Together with Michael Hess, the New York City Corporation Counsel, he was rescued from WTC Building 7 before it collapsed at 5:20 p.m. On several occasions, Jennings stated that an explosion trapped them in WTC Building 7 (before the collapses of WTC 1 & 2) and explosions throughout the building until they were saved.

Jennings publicly shared his experiences with a reporter on the day of the attacks, as well as in a lengthy 2007 video interview with Dylan Avery, a small clip of which was then released; subsequently his job was threatened and he asked that the taped interview not be included in Loose Change Final Cut. However, after an interview with Jennings was broadcast by the BBC in their program 'The Third Tower' ostensibly refuting what he had previously stated to Avery, Avery felt compelled to release the full original video interview to show the distortions made by the BBC.

Death

Barry Jennings' death remains shrouded in mystery. The only formal announcement of his death was a single announcement at his work place that stated that "regret[ted] to report the passing of ... Barry Jennings on 19 August, 2008." No cause of death was given, no autopsy or death certificate has even been released, and no witnesses to his death have come forward. His family disappeared at the same time. Two days after his death, the release of the NIST Final Report on the collapse of WTC7 claimed that there were no witnesses to explosions in building 7.

Media Blackout

In spite of the significance of Jennings' position with NYC on 9/11 and his controversial eyewitness testimony regarding the collapse of WTC7, the commercially-controlled media has not investigated or reported significantly on either his statements or his death. His Wikipedia page was deleted as non-notable. 9/11 activist David Slesinger established the domain JenningsMystery.com to try to highlight his story.
