Investigative Corroboration Framework

As highlighted in recent investigative documentaries and in-depth reporting (including WIRED’s comprehensive documentary review detailing on-the-record disclosures by Justine Wilson, Shivon Zilis, Claire Boucher (Grimes), and Ashley St. Clair), social media posts, memoirs, and custody filings provide vital evidence when mapped against a unified timeline.

Investigative reporters utilize three foundational tests to evaluate claims:

Temporal Proximity: Did the public disclosure occur contemporaneous with events or years after the relationship shifted?
Cross-Source Alignment: Do independent sources who had no coordinated communication describe the same behavioral patterns, governance protocols, or interpersonal dynamics?
Documentary Corroboration: Can primary documentation (court filings, flight logs, calendar records, archived tweets) substantiate spoken recollections?

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the corroboration engine detect matches?

The client-side engine groups claims across shared thematic tags (e.g. "Custody", "Workplace Dynamics", "Public Statements") and compares corroboration flags across distinct witnesses to highlight corroborated narratives versus isolated or contested claims.

Is my custom data stored or uploaded to an external server?

No. All testimony inputs, date scrubbers, and exported dossiers run 100% locally in your browser memory. No private notes or source transcripts leave your machine.

What export formats are supported?

You can export the entire verified dossier with timeline coordinates as a standard structured JSON artifact suitable for editorial CMS ingestion, or as Markdown notes for reporting archives.
