    I’ve been getting the impression lately that 4chan has been a platform where the rich, or someone paid by them, uses snippets of truthful information baked into outlandish stories to obfuscate their ongoings behind a narrative of easily dismissible conspiracy. Like feeding the pigs carrots, so their shit smells of shit and carrots, and now everyone avoids carrots as a byproduct of it’s association with shit.

    What are the odds this is just more of that? They may speak on Epstein’s death before it’s reported for credibility, then misuse that credibility to obfuscate the truth further. The FBI could have been in the dark, hence their investigation, but they could have also been steered away from making any conclusions on the matter.

    The newly released Epstein files show that the Justice Department tried to identify the 4Chan user behind the posts — but couldn’t figure it out.

    In https://lemmy.world/c/Epsteinfiles from 17 days ago:

    https://lemmy.world/post/42921222?scrollToComments=true

    There were two IP’s associated with these comments.

    107.77.223.177

    and

    172.58.139.162

    One IP was responsible for all of the comments regarding medical information (which can be confirmed in part by the autopsy, also available unredacted (mostly) in the files(.

    I tried to follow up on the FBI effort to get the cell data for both of these. As far as I can tell, the rPtND1Si post resolved to a new jersey IP (this is the AT&T customer), and the second resolved to a sprint customer (swam8WIF). If you look up the second IP, it resolved to the Chicago area (the sprint customer). The sprint response to the FBI record request stated that their system used “dynamic IP”. Its not clear to me the FBI followed up on the sprint customer any further. My read was they couldnt get a location from that IP because of sprints internal system.

    See here: https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet 9/EFTA00133349.pdf for the original data.

      Sounds like Epstein got the confidential-informant-who-gets-a-fake-identity treatment. From the sounds of the rumors, it wouldn’t be the FBI either. Given it involves international parties, it would probably involve the CIA and Epstein would literally be protected by the Intelligence Identities Protection Act if his new identity were to be revealed, and at the highest classification of secrecy, so nobody involved in the operation probably even knows who they are providing support to.

      There’s still the option that it was a faked death. That much wealth and power, if it could be done, that’s who and when it would be done. I’m not giving it much credence without more evidence, but I’ve got no reason to think that it’s not possible given the series of absurd happenings that morning.

          Is there any reason to believe it wasn’t hacked? If I’m murdered then my account being accessed doesn’t prove I’m secretly alive. Especially if I used insecure passwords like Epstein is reported to have done.

          It’s not impossible, but if he was still alive I find it hard to believe he’d just access it once and never again. Stupid billionaires with bad passwords probably happens all the time and we just don’t know about it because they’re not at the center of an international child sex exploitation crime ring.

            “hacker”… According to Epic, someone changed their handle to Epstein’s handle that was exposed in the files. There was no hacking involved.

            I would absolutely believe it that he was walked out and flown to Israel where he lives as a hero of the pedo-genocide state, but his brother who identified his body is vocal about evidence it wasn’t a suicide. I’m not sure what incentive he’d have to both lie about identifying his brother’s body and making so much noise about it being a murder…

              I’ve been hearing that the “changed handle” thing isn’t valid, because when an account handle is changed you can still see the original on the user’s profile (and that wasn’t the case for the littlestjeff account). With all the misinformation flying around, I have no idea about the accuracy of this though.

              That would make sense if he wasn’t arrested, convicted, interrogated and with a mountain of evidence in the hands of the FBI. A dead drop isn’t going to keep you alive if the person who wants you silenced thinks you’re already spilling the beans.

              But even if that’s the case he’s alive until he clears the dead drop because he’d still be a loose end.

          Like someone else said there might have been a dead man’s switch ready to release all the kompromat.

          Death is obviously very final, if he’s stashed somewhere then you could wheel him out to testify although I can’t really think of a circumstance where that would be advantageous.

          I tend to think murder is the far simpler objective and therefore the most likely.

        The only threat they needed to make was a return to general population.

        I seem to remember him being attacked by another inmate. Instead of being put into protective custody he was put on suicide watch, which is its own kind of hell.

        So, he changed his will to fuck over his victims, and is suddenly pulled off suicide watch.

        The only two people needed to then make sure Epstein was dead would be the warden probably Epstein’s own lawyer. Maybe the psychiatrist who signed off on the removal from suicide watch… But the suicide watch wasn’t initially justified, so pulling Epstein off it wouldn’t seem strange.

        Hell, if you were a clever, high placed official in the DOJ, an example being Bill Barr, you could simply tell the warden to “put some pressure on the pedo” and then use the lawyer to deliver the real message of “kill yourself before we put you into the general population”.

        Then you get a dead loose end and no record of illegal activity inside the prison. Also you only have to buy off a single person who likely already has questionable morals.

      Sorry dude but he’s not dead. You have to look at the evidence beyond a headline but it isn’t some strechy conspiracy at this point. None of the photos of him dead look dead, morticians have weighed in on that pretty decisively. He didn’t just have his xbox account go active after he had a fedex account and some other thing like streaming or an e-mail im not finding confirmations on. Then there’s the 2 guards who found him, read those interviews, again, doesn’t seem dead. Then there’s the notes in his cell with what seems like an escape plan that is for some reason partially redacted. And it goes on…

        Who benefits from him being alive? His assets were seized so it’s not like he could plan his own escape. The evidence was also already seized so it’s not like he could keep evidence hidden. Most of his contact would be gone on the account him supposed to be dead. What would make him so important to keep him alive? It’s not to make sure he can’t testify because dead men also don’t testify. So what would be the reason for keeping him alive and out of prison?

    The user also provided some of the earliest unproven conspiracy theories about Epstein’s death. In one post, which was later deleted but provided to the FBI in response to the subpoena, the user said someone may have swapped out Epstein’s body because of a mysterious van seen the previous night, DOJ records show. “You guys i am shaking right now but i think they switched him out,” the anonymous poster said.

            Image analysis. When a video is modified it is often pretty simple to tell if there are inconsistencies from an image captured under real world conditions using a camera lense.

            It’s pretty simple to trick the human eye these days. But it’s significantly more difficult to modify a real world videos and perform “in-painting” (the more general term for a face swap) without obvious inconsistencies appearing.

            It’s significantly easier to detect these inconsistencies than it is to perform in-painting that doesn’t have these inconsistencies.

            It’s not 100% deterministic. But it is enough to conclude that it is more likely than not a digitally modified image/video.

            Video is MUCH easier to conclude as fake or real too. Because, unlike an image, the in-painting needs to not only work consistently to real world conditions and match the surroundings throughout, but it also has to match seemlessly and naturally to every single frame one after another.

            The specific techniques are usually dependent on the video. But sometimes something as simple as increasing the contrast on an image can really expose that the pixels of an in-painted portion are not behaving how the surrounding pixels are.

            If you’re interested I found a journal paper that goes over it. Haven’t read it myself. But will likely after this comment. But just looking at the images in it can give you an idea of what the image analysis would be looking at.

            https://www.mdpi.com/2313-433X/10/2/42

            Edit: I know nothing about the Maxwell video in question. This is just an answer on “how” people can determine if a video or image has been modified.

        I wouldn’t be surprised if that was found out. But I am not comfortable just believing something like that. I don’t think that’s healthy.

    The longer this goes on the weirder it gets.
    A death reported before it happened?
    Thousands or hours of video tapes being withheld?
    Shipping containers he used full of incriminating documents?
    I’ve always had distain for conspiracy theories, but I also suspected the elites were probably deranged.

    Then, the other day, I was search for bbq recipes, and came across a Cannibal bbq subreddit. I assume it’s all ai, but… I don’t know what to think anymore. Trump and his friends are just so evil. All I can think about is what the nazi concentration camp people did. torture twins, make lampshades out of human skin.

    I grew up in a rural town where nothing ever happened and nobody locked their door. This is all so wrong.

      I’m in that rural neighborhood that never locks their doors. “Unsolved” hit and runs and “unsolved” shootings, and “unsolved” bodies being found by “hunters” are increasing. Btw a group of armed robbers recently sued – and won! a supposedly US government protected national entity because the armed security personnel used their weapon to hold the robbers in place while they called 911. So that’s what happens to good guys with guns, they get fired for never firing a shot and calling the police on criminals.

      Fwiw, I am not suicidal. I have family I love and would never leave in guilt, shame, and despair.

        That’s crazy. What was the lie they came up with? That they were not robbers and were forcefully held? Wouldn’t trespassing work in favor of the security personnel?

          Note this was a _civil_to trial, requiring only “preponderance of evidence,” so 50.5% beyond reasonable doubt. Their criminal trial is pending.

          https://legalinsights.us/assault-with-a-deadly-weapon-charges-penalties-and-defenses/

          For a conviction of assault with a deadly weapon, the prosecution must prove specific elements beyond a reasonable doubt. First, it must establish that the accused committed an act constituting an assault. An assault is generally defined as an intentional act that causes another person to reasonably apprehend imminent harmful or offensive contact. The action must be deliberate, not accidental.

          https://thegunzone.com/is-pointing-and-presenting-a-firearm-a-felony/

          H3 7. What is ‘aggravated assault’ with a firearm? How does it differ from simple assault? ‘Aggravated assault’ with a firearm typically involves pointing a firearm with the intent to cause serious bodily harm or placing the victim in imminent fear of serious bodily harm.

          But tbh, the magistrates, judges, prosecutors and defense lawyers are ask in the same pockets. Those who pay their bills on time and practice omerta skate.

          Again, I am not suicidal and have loved ones is never stick with shame, guilt, unanswered questions. Again, “unsolved” hit and runs and shootings, and oh forgot to mention, drug overdose is prevelant here. If I happen to pass away by any of these ways, gas chromatography hair follicle tests should be done, and device records subpoenaed, and my family members should file lawsuits against my county and state.

          Eta forced/coerced trafficking of adults and minors is also a big money maker here, and those respected and not so much are involved in it together.

      I’ve always had distain for conspiracy theories

      I totally am with you. However, there is definitely quite a range in the theories. And it’s probably a bit naive to always fall for the narratives handed down by suspect elites on any given matter, some of them better known as “coincidence theories”.

      Some “theories” later turned out to be true. It’s quite a distance between the findings of the Church Committee, for example, or what came out of Iran/Contra, or the Pentagon Papers, or the Panama Papers, as contrasted with rando nonsense like “Nazis built bases on the moon”.

      Unfortunately, it’s hard to thread that needle I guess. People jump from the findings on Tuskagee and go feet-first into assuming Fauci did something illegal in Wuhan and/or that Covid was fake/“just a flu” and this was all a trial run/experiment to institute the New World Order and/or that mRNA vaccines were going to kill you or whatever…I mean, so many people just went buck wild during Covid.

      In 2019 I graduated uni and struggled to find work for 9 months. During that time my boredom took me to the conspiracy subreddit… Most of the things on there are hilariously far fetched. But also people there were CONVINCED that Epstein wasn’t going to make it to trial. When he died (or escaped), my view on conspiracy theorists changed substantially. At this point I wouldn’t be surprised to find out 9/11 was planned, in all honestly.

        Not planned by americans. They just let it happen. It’s easier to hide behind “beuracratic incompetence” than actually killing thousands of people without having any whistleblowers.

          Fair enough.

          It’s crazy that Epstein is easy to include in 9/11 conspiracies now too, considering his link to Lutnick (too lazy to spell check his name), who didn’t go into work on 9/11 when like 600 of his employees died. Not to mention Epstein’s ties to royals, presidents, and allegedly the Mossad. The who thing is so fertile for conspiracy theories that it basically grows itself.

        Well I mean someone planned 9/11. OBL.

        I will admit, I didn’t realize that all the elites of the world got together to fuck children together. Once that’s on the table, some of the theories that only involve collaboration of a few people you wouldn’t expect to be in the same room start looking more possible.

        Like how in the hell would… (random people) Netanyahu and the President of Ford and the preeminent researcher of quantum computing ever get together to (random theory) build Jewish space lasers? Oh, it was pillow talk while they were raping kids.

        Like… I don’t believe in Jewish space lasers but it feels more plausible today than it did a few years ago.

      With how well-connected he was, how rich he was, and the fact there was a van there the night before AND his brother hired the forensic pathologist who identified his body.

      There’s no way Jeffrey is actually dead. He’s probably living it up on their island “Valhalla” raping children like always.

      You want to get even weirder about conspiracies, him and thiel where looking for ways to make systems collapse as an easier way to make money and epstien’s death is triggering a lot of people to go down conspiracy rabbit holes thus weakening faith in existing power structures, if any of this is actually planned I bet his suicide faked or otherwise and the ripple effects might be

      Watch Saló by Pier Paolo Passolini. Looks totally credible. If butchers in concentration camps (or IDF in Gaza) can be the summum of evil, why would the elite not be. Epstein compromised them and now, after Gaza, Trump is going to go to war with Iran because there’s a pedo video of him somewhere. I always assumed Israel was doing America’s dirty work in the middle east but it’s the other way around actually. One can only assume Israel has the same leverage over the UK. They all got compromised.

        You’re not wrong, but . . . jfc that is a hard movie to watch if you have a soul.

        Which is, of course, why Pasolini made it the way he did.

      Its not. By 2019 there were hundreds of thousands of 4chan users. There were two threads of comments the FBI considered credible. One, specifically focused on observable medical conditions and procedures related to the minutes and hour immediately around the time where Epstein’s body is allegedly discovered.

      https://www.justice.gov/age-verify?destination=%2Fepstein%2Ffiles%2FDataSet+9%2FEFTA00129268.pdf

      This leads to this document, “EFTA00091641.pdf”, and the MCC employee “Tova Noel”, and you’ll find this question:

      Search “Verizon” and “Tova Noel”, and you can confirm they were a Verizon customer in document “EFTA00133624.pdf”, from bank records the FBI obtained. These records show the withdrawl dates on which automatic billing occurred.

      Go to document “EFTA00123473.pdf” or “EFTA00125018.pdf” and you get the Verizon subpoena, although, numbers redacted, etc… etc… but its got the specific date window that matters (July 6 2019 until August 13 2019). “EFTA00133182.pdf” gets you the list of all subpoenas, and is redacted poorly enough such that we can infer which people are being targeted. Specifically, Shuliac, Noel, Thomas remain unredacted/ sloppily redacted.

          I don’t disagree. But there is a clear chain of custody that the feds pursued and issued multiple subpoenas in an effort to figure out who made BOTH of the 4chan posts.
