Topic: Parallel Construction

4 chapters across the catalog

The government is accused of using "parallel construction" to hide the fact that the NSA already possesses data proving Chinese election hacking. By executing raids and search warrants now, agencies allegedly create a fake investigative trail for information they have held since 2020. Doubt is expressed regarding whether the CIA will truly expose its own involvement in these operations despite the presence of new leadership figures.

Alex Jones explains the concept of "parallel construction," alleging that the FBI and James Comey controlled the Epstein files to blackmail politicians. He argues that Trump is technically correct that the remaining files are "Deep State" products because the Democrats likely destroyed incriminating evidence against themselves while leaving "cherry-picked" data to implicate others.

The FBI is expected to use the Epstein files to generate "spinoff" cases against the "Johns" and associates involved in the trafficking network. This process involves "parallel construction," where intelligence gathered through national security means is used to build criminal cases. Agents are currently cleaning records to ensure that victim identities are protected and that the evidence will hold up under court scrutiny during future prosecutions.

Serafin discusses "parallel construction," where the FBI uses intelligence to find a crime and then works backward to create a legal case. He cites the raid in Little Rock where a man was shot as an example of the dangers of this system. The host links this to his own experience in the Sandy Hook trial, where he claims the prosecution used "Perry Mason moments" based on privileged data.
