Topic: Lab Fraud

Mike Adams and Eric Coppolino allege that the EPA is likely withholding dioxin test results to avoid a mandatory evacuation of East Palestine. They discuss historical precedents of laboratory fraud, such as the Industrial Biotest Labs scandal. The segment also draws parallels between environmental testing and the alleged fraud in COVID-19 PCR testing.

Mike Adams, who runs an ISO-accredited lab, discusses how law enforcement laboratories have been caught faking results for drug convictions. He and Eric Coppolino critique the use of high cycle thresholds in PCR testing, arguing it creates "signal" out of background noise. They suggest that many DNA-based criminal convictions may be based on fraudulent molecular science.

The integrity of DNA testing is questioned, with the hosts calling for a re-examination of original samples and cycle thresholds used in criminal cases. Eric Coppolino references the Peter von Stackelberg investigation into IBT Labs, where executives were convicted of federal fraud. The segment warns that "the science" presented in courtrooms is often decoded only by those with a vested interest.
