Did Drones Mask The Killing?
Was it a coincidence that the only known livestream of Charlie Kirk’s murder was disabled at the moment an aerial drone appears on campus at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah? Or was something more sinister afoot?
Here, Jason Goodman shows aerial drones flying overhead as the assassination occurred, and wonders aloud if there was a bluetooth, low-energy airborne attack that occurred as the assassination was happening. Such an attack would not have sent a bullet pummeling into Charlie Kirk, but could have diverted, damaged or destroyed cell phone recordings of the killing.
The aerial drones — or even something as inauspicious as a cell phone from a back pack — could have served as what’s known as an “IMSI-catcher?” If you’ve never heard of that, join the crowd. The abbreviation is shorthand for “International Mobile Subscriber Identity – Catcher.”
In essence, this catcher can disrupt all cell phones operating within its vicinity. The cell phones are clipped and can’t reach whatever tower they normally reach for service. If you’re holding one of the affected cell phones and staring into it, you’ll see something glitchy or garbled for a few seconds. Whatever they recorded for that lapse of time is lost.
Jason Goodman from Crowdsource The Truth explores this possibility, and gives us a demonstration of the IMSI technology during an encounter he has in Washington Square Park in New York City. Along the way home, he chats briefly with Nick Bryant, the journalist who wrote The Franklin Scandal and now is involved with the website EpsteinJustice.
(EDITOR’S NOTE: After the Butler, Pennsylvania, shooting and assassination attempt on President Donald Trump, Goodman got into an argument with one of the country’s largest drone and virtual reality operators Palmer Luckey. He had been the man behind the Oculus virtual reality display set that was being developed by Meta, but Mark Zuckerberg fired him before that system bore full fruit.
Luckey claimed he was fired because he donated about $10,000 to Donald Trump, while Zuckerberg and all of his Silicon Valley cronies were supporting Hillary Clinton.
Luckey had reason to support Trump. His sister, Ginger Luckey, is married to Matt Gaetz. If you’ve ever seen the HBO series Silicon Valley, the entrepreneurial character of Keenan Feldspar — played by Haley Joel Osment — was patterned after Palmer Luckey.)
