The rich investigated themselves and what do you know, they're innocent!

AH so he was the lone bad guy on the island then? Everyone else was there for a nice tan? That makes perfect sense.

it was just a few "bad apples" lol

So the story we're going with is that an innocent man was imprisoned, then killed himself on your watch

our society is buying into the narrative that russia is responsible for this global illuminati pedo sex, sacrifice & cannibalism ring; so it makes sense that they would buy this too.

Can't believe Russia would do all this to incriminate this saint of a man, then kill him in a US prison, all to bersmirch the good name of US oligarchs.

"He was just the main customer of the actual sex trafficking ring"

They’re genuinely trying to relegate this to the realm of conspiracy theory

I mean it is a conspiracy theory, it also happens to be true

[-] pirat@lemmy.ml 8 points 23 hours ago

A conspiracy one might even call it
