Payton Morland: 本期节目探讨了记者Danny Casolaro的离奇死亡事件。Casolaro生前调查一起名为“章鱼”的庞大阴谋,涉及美国司法部、Inslaw公司以及卡巴松保留地的秘密行动。官方认定其死因为自杀,但诸多疑点引发了人们的质疑,例如现场清理痕迹、研究资料失踪、验尸程序延误等。Casolaro的“遗书”内容也暗示其死因可能并非自杀。此外,尸检显示其身上有瘀伤,指甲被撕裂,可能曾反抗过袭击。Casolaro可能患有或怀疑自己患有多发性硬化症,这与他调查的“脑病毒”阴谋有关。Inslaw公司与美国司法部的诉讼是真实存在的,但司法部否认有任何不当行为。美国政府在卡巴松保留地投入巨资,暗示存在秘密行动。多位与“章鱼”阴谋论相关的关键人物离奇死亡。关于Casolaro之死,存在三种可能性:其调查结果真实且被杀害;其调查部分真实,部分虚构;其调查完全是虚构的,死于自杀。FBI对Casolaro死亡案的调查报告高度脱密,暗示其中可能存在隐情。Casolaro的死使他声名鹊起,但其最终以悲剧收场。
