Metadata embedded in the video and analyzed by WIRED and independent video forensics experts shows that rather than being a direct export from the prison’s surveillance system, the footage was modified, likely using the professional editing tool Adobe Premiere Pro.
A bad thing in my country is the amount of Tesla’s we buy. In America it’s ICE, fascism and the government protecting the rich, powerful pedophiles from being exposed.
They literally said they color corrected and enhanced parts of it for visibility. So yes, the footage was modified.
But why? News agencies can do that if they wish, for the viewers, but why would a government agency releasing video evidence touch it up in any way? That’s just asking for questions.
I would assume it’s to make the metadata seem more reasonable, so people pay less attention to the cut. ‘The “perfectly innocent” act of “touching it up” is the reason the metadata says what it does, not because we removed part of it. Don’t look any closer!’
Yeah I agree. Pretty sure the whole trust part goes out the window when you aren’t releasing the actual raw footage to the press.
Jack Ruby did it
I’m not surprised, and I’d still say it’s not an unlikely grand conspiracy if some rich guy paid a couple guards to kill him.
Americans talk about conspiracy as if its something that only happens in literature. Of all places
Americans tend to overuse conspiracy to mythologize so they can support theirvmasdive cognitive dissonance and/or feel like there’s a daddy in control of everything up to and apparentlybincluding the weather. Except tor the handful who are fucking sick if that shit and so used to dismissingbit out of hand.

If that were the case then they wouldn’t have the fucking government covering it up. It literally is a conspiracy
Well, I don’t see the government covering it up, and I don’t believe in conspiracy theories.
Saying “I don’t believe X conspiracy theory” is understandable. But saying you don’t believe in any “conspiracy theory”. Like, you think that the government just always tells the truth and doesn’t cover up anything?
I believe in conspiracies as a general concept, like the two guards, and I believe governments have classified programs. When it gets to a certain point where vast numbers of people are involved in covering up something huge perfectly, you run into the problem of everything being possible and nothing being falsifiable, though.
In practice, people don’t believe in conspiracy theories because they honestly assess it’s the neatest way to explain the world, it’s because they get emotional satisfaction out of the community and the feeling that they know something which other people don’t. There’s psychology literature about it and everything.
What I said is my goto answer when I suspect I’m about to be arguing about melting steel beams or whatever, because that’s just a waste of time.

okay then you’re either blind or a moron
The footage with the murdered is buried somewhere deep in Adobe secret database. I don’t want to live in a world where Adobe can blackmail the goverment.

I can excuse Feds falsifying evidence to cover for their owners in the billionaire pedophile class, but I draw the line at using Adobe software
What program should they have used?
ffmpeg
Free and open source is the only ethical choice to use while serving the oligarchy.
Unironically, if all they did was just cut out parts they didn’t want, using open source ffmpeg to rencode and strip metadata would have been the best way to do it.
Using Adobe is just fucking sloppy. Not to mention, I’m pretty sure Adobe own any content that got uploaded to their servers during the edit. They likely have at least frames of it sitting on their servers if not the whole video.

I use Kdenlive BTW.
MS Paint, how is this even a question?
Could even use your phone to record the screen and use your hand to censor out what you want hidden
This isn’t a problem, as it is well known that Adobe Premiere is not designed to modify video.
I can’t tell if you’re joking or not, so I’ll leave this here just in case.
Video editing that’s always a cut above.
Edit and trim video. Add effects. Mix audio. Animate titles. Magically add new frames to clips. Supercharge your workflow with AI.
Stop spreading lies, Jesse Waters already independently confirmed that this is not the case and Weirdfish is correct.
You guys are flying too high right now, they can’t keep up with the humor!
I take such downvotes with pride - it means the joke works as intended and some people are confused:)
Can people really not tell this is a joke? Come on…
