In reply to the discussion: This is no longer rumor circulating online. It's written into the files. [View all]Wiz Imp
(8,744 posts)27. A couple things.
First, I'd like to see a link to the actual document on the DOJ website that contains this.
Second, it's apparently from an FBI intake document, dated October 27, 2020.
The information is presented as allegations and recollections shared with the FBI, not as findings from a trial or conclusions reached by investigators.
It is important to be clear. An FBI intake document records what was reported to the agency. It is not a determination of guilt, and the allegations described have not been adjudicated in court.

The timing(immediately before the 2020 election) will certainly make it suspicious to the people who refuse to believe Trump could have done anything wrong.
So this is not necessarily the "smoking gun" many people think it is. Anyone could have made any allegation they wanted to the FBI tip line and it would have been recorded like this. It would help if someone could identify some corroborating information. Like the name of the person who was found to have committed suicide in Kiefer, OK.
I'm not saying this isn't true. To the contrary, I believe this is a pretty strong and believable allegation. I just think people should be cautious about presenting this as proof of anything until more info comes out.

No way there is only one set of all these docs. Tossing them just makes em more guilty.
