Typepattern
A recurring theme in deep events, whereby the perpetrators supposedly leave behind them a trail of very revealing information such as identity documents.

In 2015 Ross Baker noted the Lost and Found ID syndrome - how many episodes of "watershed violence" shared a common feature - a simple trail of identity documents for investigators to pick up on.[1]

Examples

Oswald’s military ID, said to have been stained by FBI fingerprinting fluid

JFK Assassination

Lee Harvey Oswald, the supposed "lone nut" killer of John F. Kennedy purportedly dropped his wallet, which was found at the murder scene of J.D.Tippit. This story was soon revised to claim that the police took the wallet from him after he was arrested.

MLK Assassination

James Earl Ray, the supposed "lone nut" killer of Martin Luther King had escaped from a prison shortly before the attack, and left a bundle of items on the sidewalk - included his rifle, binoculars, clothing, prison radio, and a newspaper clipping revealing where King would be staying.

2010 United States diplomatic cables leak/Middle East“You know better than I that we cannot deal with these people (the Guantanamo detainees). I can't detain them. If I take their passports, they will sue to get them back. I can talk to you into next week about building a rehabilitation center, but it won't happen. We are not Saudi Arabia; we cannot isolate these people in desert camps or somewhere on an island. We cannot compel them to stay. If they are rotten, they are rotten and the best thing to do is get rid of them. You picked them up in Afghanistan; you should drop them off in Afghanistan, in the middle of the war zone.”Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah

In deep events ID seems to survive even when none of the perpetrators do. The page collects the suspicious evidence of what Russ Baker calls "Lost and Found ID" syndrome.
