Episode notes
Fresh Forensic Review Led To Arrest
- Kash Patel says the FBI reexamined 3 million lines of evidence and combined cell, video, and purchase data to identify a suspect.
- Enhanced video, license-plate reads, and cross-referenced purchases narrowed the universe to a small circle of leads.
Multiple Data Threads Were Cross-Checked
- Investigators triangulated multiple threads: credit card records, store surveillance, unique sneaker models, and cell pings to reduce suspects.
- Human analysts reviewed data for hundreds of days because no single system could perform the cross-correlation.
Leadership Choices Shaped The Investigation
- Patel argues prior FBI leadership did not fully exploit available technology or evidence, implying either incompetence or intentional omission.
- He frames the new leadership's approach as proactive and resource-heavy compared with the prior administration.
