Manipulated Data and Manipulated Hit Songs

In 2019, I was an average American citizen with zero legal experience and very little understanding of the true role that spies play in America. I eventually found myself at the Supreme Court in an escalating and fierce legal battle against my former employers, the CIA Checchi family. This legal battle raged every day for seven long years. Along the way, I learned a lot about courts, judges, Justices, attorneys, the American legal system, and the rule of law.

I also learned about dozens of scandalous, criminal, and un-American schemes, scams, and actions that had been carried out against me by this CIA family that I once considered to be among my closest and best friends. The words 'corruption' and 'abuse of power' do not even begin to describe what I discovered. This writing explains some of what I learned and what I believe Americans should also know, because what happened to me uncovered important issues about how easily government power, government secrecy, extreme wealth, data collection, and the legal system can be abused. My experiences also demonstrate what can happen to ordinary Americans when those entrusted with government authority, enforcement of the law, and upholding the rule of law take an oath to uphold the Constitution but fail to live up to that oath.

In 2026, there was a lot of discussion in the media about data centers being built across the United States, including efforts promoted by President Trump to expand the nation's AI data-center infrastructure for what is commonly called “artificial intelligence,” or AI. Please note that in some articles about AI, what they are really talking about is Al – Al Checchi (the founder of the CIA Checchi family cult).

Depending on the font that is used, AI can look like the word Al, and this is deliberate covert coded language, in some cases. The ambiguity is intentional and used to conceal the second meaning. One interpretation is visible to the unknowing public while another is understood by the intended audience “insiders” who understand what is being said about the CIA Checchi family. Interpreting Trump: When President Trump and other leaders say that they are supportive of AI or against it, what they are really talking about is Al – Al Checchi, the self-proclaimed “emperor of the world.”

According to a few polls in August 2026, as much as 75% of Americans are against building more AI data centers. If Americans knew the truth about how “data” is collected, what “they” are doing with this data and what the deeper meaning of “artificial intelligence” actually is, I suspect that even more people would be against building them.

In this article, I am explaining what I have learned in the last few years as I fought my former employer, the CIA Checchi family, in court. What I learned about what they were doing with their massive “data collection” machine was unbelievable, shocking and un-American. I feel it is important for the public to become aware of the truth about how the rich are getting richer from “AI data collection” in America. It is beyond corrupt, in my opinion. It is no exaggeration to say that the CIA Checchi family and everyone that is connected to them have become a massive threat to national security and privacy in America. The CIA Checchi family cult leaders have shown over and over again that they have no intention of upholding their oath to the Constitution. In fact, they intend to destroy and bring an end to the Constitution as we know it, so that they can rule over the country as kings and queens and ultimately, as “emperors of the world.” Their egos are heavily invested in this quest for world domination. It is not a selfless project for ultimate public good. They rationalize actions and justify anything evil done in the name of their ultimate world domination goal, convincing themselves that the ends justify the means because they believe their quest for power is somehow more important than the rights, freedoms and lives of the people they seek to control. Data centers become their tools for evidence – even when that “evidence” is manipulated, fabricated, and fraudulent.  

The discussion of “data centers” and “data collection” does tie into what Edward Snowden exposed in 2013: extensive U.S. government mass-surveillance programs. He revealed that government agents were secretly collecting and analyzing vast amounts of Americans’ and foreigners’ communications and their internet data. Allegedly, those government agents were being led and orchestrated by the CIA Checchi family. And I believe it was the CIA Checchi family that led Snowden to reveal this information, in part, as a test to see how the public would respond to this total violation of the Constitution. It’s a psychological game of desensitizing the public to abandoning Constitutional principles. This all came after the 2001 Patriot Act was passed because of the World Trade Center terrorist attacks on 9/11. This was all orchestrated from the shadows by Al Checchi and his team of terrorists.

Nearly two-thirds of Americans at the time of Snowden’s revelations wanted public congressional hearings on this, but nothing ever happened for the same reason that the CIA Checchi family has never been formally investigated by politicians in D.C. – because the CIA Checchi family has controlled many of the main decision-making leaders of Congress and the Senate for decades. These are the very people who are in charge of such things as investigations and committee hearings on corruption. It is a fact that since the 1980s, every decade that past found the Checchi family doing more things to erode the Constitution and increase their own power, personal wealth, and leverage against political and judicial leaders who needed to be controlled so that they could continue to grow their consolidation of power and influence.

Their goal is getting rid of the Constitution in its present form so that they can become the overlords of America and the world. They do not believe in free speech, freedom of press and many other important parts of the Constitution on which all our laws are created.

From 2019 – 2026 I was mired in a lawsuit against the CIA Checchi family (Kathy Checchi, Al Checchi, Adam Checchi, Michael Fisher, David Kanuth, Oprah Winfrey and other CIA Checchi family cult leaders). My court documents and responses are over 6,000 pages long.

One of the things the Checchi family worked very hard at was to frame me as a child predator. As far as I know, there is no more serious crime to be accused of and accusing someone of this is common when you want to ruin someone’s life and discredit their work. This one section of my court documents and responses are hundreds of pages long and it reveals all the tactics they use to discredit someone with these accusations. The “evidence” they used was all manufactured and fabricated. I’m not going to share everything I learned about this topic in this article because it would become another book. But through this very long court battle, I came to learn that if you are going to expose the biggest CIA criminal operation in American history, you can bet they will come after you with the most dangerous and outrageous accusations as punishment for exposing their corruption and abuse of power. What became clear is that the Checchi family has a “well oiled” machine that uses manipulated, fabricated “data” to discredit and control someone.

My court case outlines dozens and dozens of “sophisticated” games they played with me in this scam they created against me, to frame me as a child predator. This article will only discuss a few of the things I shared in my court documents which are relevant to the issue of “data” collection of American citizens.

What came to light in court was that they’ve not just done this “framing” to me. They’ve created a massive cultural machine to entrap countless people. They use a tactic called “undue influence” and other psychological games that the CIA has studied and experimented with for decades. They also manipulate “data” so that they can “frame” literally hundreds of thousands — maybe even millions — of people in this “sophisticated” trap focused on the abuse and exploitation of children. As they do this, they make hundreds of billions of dollars. Please let me explain more details because it’s important that people understand what’s going on with these new Al data centers…

IT STARTED IN THE 1970s WITH JEFFREY EPSTEIN

Not only did the Checchi family allegedly create Jeffrey Epstein in the 1970s, they orchestrated his entire world of teen sexual exploitation — which I suspect is why President Carter tried so hard to shut Al Checchi down at the time. The Checchi family cult leaders have allegedly carried out this sort of child abuse and exploitation all over the world, using literally thousands of children over many decades as sex toys for adults. I was told by one Checchi spy that “it’s not abuse of the kids want to do it.”

They created Epstein’s world of exploitation so that they could blackmail political, judicial, entertainment, and business leaders worldwide. Having sex with teens became leverage. It also became a requirement for advancement in almost every career path. Archimedes understood thousands of years ago that the right leverage can move something enormously larger than the person applying the force. The same principle can apply to power and influence: control the right point of leverage, and a relatively small amount of power can produce enormous effects. 

I suspect this strategy of using children had been used by secret societies for many years before Al Checchi came on the scene. But the CIA Checchi family became the biggest, most aggressive leaders in this game. They were at the forefront of control over this strategy and Team Checchi created a massive machine of sexual exploitation which brought extreme fame, powerful connections, and wealth to many leaders spanning many decades. The Checchi family epitomizes the saying in all they do: go big or go home. This is a point of pride for their network.

In the 1970s, Al Checchi attacked President Jimmy Carter brutally for trying to shut down the CIA Checchi family network. I believe Al Checchi ultimately helped force Carter out of office by using the same kinds of games that they are now playing with President Trump in 2026 — inflation, gas prices, and bringing a hostile Iran into the picture. Checchi family influence in Iran has never stopped all these years because they made Iran a hub of terrorist networking. By staying active in Iran, they could use it to control and manipulate terrorist organizations worldwide. With American taxpayer money, they use and create these evil terrorist networks for their own purposes and personal benefit – to build their own worldwide empire.

Why is the Checchi family now attacking Trump? Because in his second term in office, Trump has also been attempting to shut down large parts of the CIA Checchi family empire, but with much more success, knowledge, and experience than President Carter had. Maybe Carter should have waited until his second term in office before going to war with the Checchi family. The Iran Hostage Crisis in the 1970s and the Iran War in 2026 have a lot more in common than people realize. In essence the Iran War today is a different kind of hostage crisis. This time, the American public are the ones being held captive.

In both cases of the 1970s and 2026, Iran became intertwined with a broader crisis involving the presidency, energy prices, inflation, and the political stability of the United States. President Carter faced a hostage crisis that, combined with the energy crisis and severe inflation, helped cripple his presidency and contributed to his defeat in 1980 to Al Checchi’s friend Ronald Regan.

Today, President Trump is facing a very different kind of Iran crisis in which war, oil prices, inflation and public frustration are again converging into a potentially dangerous political problem for Republicans in the upcoming elections. By orchestrating this, the Checchi family can claim they are helping democrats win – which will further make some democratic leaders indebted to this corrupt CIA family. This kind of maneuvering is how the Checchi family has stayed in power for many decades. Politicians who wield power come and go but the spies who work in the shadows can remain in power because they have no term limits to their jobs. Maybe it’s time to rethink that policy and put term limits on these people?

In 1979, Americans were watching hostages held in Iran; in 2026, Americans are the hostages – watching the consequences of a war that can affect their fuel prices, household costs, economy and sense of security. In that sense, the Iran War today can be viewed as a different kind of hostage crisis — one in which the consequences of the conflict itself can hold an entire country hostage to energy prices, inflation and geopolitical uncertainty.

THE ROLE OF CHILD SEXUAL EXPLOITATION

Even in small towns throughout America, the Checchi family has been manipulating mayors and other leaders to let them into their local high schools so that they could find as many kids as possible to take photos with their phone of their private parts. I originally reported this to the DOJ when Merrick Garland was the Attorney General and eventually, he had the FBI confiscate all of the photos that Adam Checchi, Michael Fisher and David Kanuth had accumulated over the decades they have been doing this with students all over America. I was told that the FBI said it was the largest collection of child porn they have ever seen – over a million photos of children’s private parts.

In some cases, the mayors or other leaders involved in allowing this were charged with dozens of counts of child porn – not because they had these photos on their computers or on their phones, but because these leaders were the ones who allowed the CIA Checchi family into the schools to commit these crimes against children.

In short, what this proved is that Kathy & Al Checchi and their family are obsessed with the private parts of children and this obsession has gone on non-stop since the 1970s when they first started working with Jeffrey Epstein and got him a job as a teacher working in a girl’s school named The Dalton School in New York City. It has been reported in the media that Epstein was hired as a math teacher by Attorney General Barr’s father. As they say at Disney (another company that the Checchi family controlled for decades), “it’s a small, small world after all.”

It should be noted that “Dalton” is a CIA Checchi family code. In the spy world, this is a significant code name for the Checchi family and ties them directly to the Dalton school for girls. “Dalton” is a Checchi family domain – it is their sphere of influence and control. 

MODERN DAY CHECCHI FAMILY FRAMING CHILD PREDATORS

Since the 1990s the CIA Checchi family has played many games with me in their attempt to frame me as a child predator. During this court case I found out that the Checchi family does this sort of thing to Catholics worldwide. They trick Catholics into joining their network and then they secretly attack Catholics with these child predator games. In 1988 I had also become friends with a family I had met at my church. Unknown to me at the time, this family was a sworn enemy of the Checchi family. When I was eventually manipulated to move to Los Angeles in 1992, I was surrounded by Checchi spies upon my arrival and didn’t know it. My knowledge and awareness of “spies” at the time was limited to James Bond movies. I was incredibly naïve, gullible and easy for them to manipulate.

These new “friends” I met in Los Angeles would invite me out to movies or lunch or other events. Often these meetings would take place in my neighborhood where I would walk to the mall, restaurant, or movie theater. On my way to these scheduled events, I would suddenly be surrounded by a dozen or two dozen children on the sidewalk or at the mall. Often, they would appear out of nowhere in front of me. Then, out of nowhere, someone with a camera would come out and take a picture of me with the kids. This would happen three or four times a year. It took me several years to realize that someone was trying to frame me as a person who was stalking children in public.

Today in 2026, these sorts of framing games can happen online by the “data” that is collected on people as they read articles, stream shows or listen to music on their phones or computer. Everything digital is being catalogued and kept track of, and since it was the CIA Checchi family that created the foundation of this digital machine, they are making residual money daily. If I’m not mistaken, this operates much like a multilevel marketing pyramid scam where money gets filtered from the top down and everyone involved gets a cut. The person at the top makes the most money. The Checchi family cult leaders are making BILLIONS of dollars “framing” people as criminals and creeps – even when the “evidence” is pure fabrication, manipulation, and the deepest form of “artificial” intelligence. 

Another example of how the CIA Checchi family tried to frame me as a child predator happened when they had me start working as a driver for Uber and Lyft in 2015. Adam Checchi and his crew were manipulating the algorithm that connects drivers with passengers on these apps. Checchi was deliberately sending me to college and university campuses throughout Southern California. For days at a time, I was driving around these campuses and picking up students constantly. From my perspective, I was simply doing the job I had been encouraged to do. I was driving wherever the apps sent me and picking up the passengers who were assigned to me.

But later, during my legal battle against the CIA Checchi family cult leaders, this same driving activity was presented as “data” suggesting that I was stalking students. That was total nonsense. They neglected to tell the Honorable Court that I was working for Uber and Lyft and that my presence around these campuses was the direct result of the work I had been doing as a driver. They also neglected to tell the Justices that they were the ones orchestrating all the people who were getting into my car. This is precisely the danger of turning ordinary activity into “data evidence.” The data can show where a person went, how often they went there and who they encountered, while completely omitting the reason they were there in the first place.

FOLLOW THE MONEY TRAIL 

When I first met Al Checchi, he explained to me that every crime in society comes with a financial cost to society. He explained how crime imposes measurable economic costs on victims, families, governments and society. Crime can generate direct and indirect economic costs: medical treatment, property losses, police and court expenses, incarceration, lost wages and productivity, victim services, psychological harm, reduced quality of life, and the economic effects on families and communities.

The Department of Justice has explicitly developed methodologies for measuring these broader costs, and the CDC similarly includes medical costs, work loss, lost quality of life, and the economic value of lives lost when calculating the burden of injury and violence (https://nij.ojp.gov/library/publications/extent-and-costs-crime-victimization-new-look).

So, working with this idea, a system has been developed by the government so that if you stop a crime or criminal enterprise in progress the government will give you a financial reward. Spies make money by lurking in the shadows and looking for crime or criminals that they can stop. If they are successful, they make money. It appears that this is one way that spies become rich. This has something to do with this money being set up in secret accounts at the U.S. Treasury, though no one has explained to me details about these accounts or how one can access this money.

The corrupt CIA Checchi family took this one step further and they learned how to make hundreds of billions of dollars every year by “framing” people as criminals. I know about this because it was what they did to me for over 37 years! It took me decades to understand what they were doing to me, and I only found out more details because it all came out during the long court battle at the Supreme Court. I could not believe the things I was learning. As I type this in 2026, I continue to be dumbfounded and in disbelief I could have fallen for so many hundreds of tricks and traps orchestrated by people I thought were my closest friends. If I never would have met them, I would never have been able to figure out exactly who was at the root of all my problems.

The Checchi family targeted me in 1988 when I was a university student only because I became friends with someone they considered “an enemy for life.” Since the Checchi family “machine” of entrapment and abuse of power is so vast and prolific, I must assume there are millions of people who have no idea who is at the root of all their problems. Millions of Americans work two or three jobs just to survive. This is all orchestrated by the Checchi family who has the power to change it, if they wanted to. For example, as Professor Robert Reich points out, the minimum wage in 2009 became $7.25.

 

2010: $7.25

2011: $7.25

2012: $7.25

2013: $7.25

2014: $7.25

2015: $7.25

2016: $7.25

2017: $7.25

2018: $7.25

2019: $7.25

2020: $7.25

2021: $7.25

2022: $7.25

2023: $7.25

2024: $7.25

2025: $7.25

2026: $7.25

This is a deliberate strategy of domination and control. Keeping people poor keeps them vulnerable and powerless. For many of these Americans, it feels like a life of a slave – economic slavery. They never get ahead and cannot figure out why or how the system is rigged against them. This is how I lived for decades, never understanding the root of why I was stuck and could never get ahead – no matter how hard I worked or how many jobs I worked. It took me 25 years to figure out that I was stuck in a system that was rigged against me and who was rigging it.

AMAZON.COM

Why does Jeff Bezos make so much money? Amazon is not just a good business idea – it’s a spy haven for spy games. I joined Amazon Prime, which means paying for a membership that gives you benefits such as faster/free shipping, Prime Video, Prime Music, and access to other Amazon services and exclusive deals. It’s pitched as a privilege, but what it also is for millions of people is a trap.

For example, I found spy games in my Prime Video section. Every member gets “free to me” movies. These movies are more than entertainment. They have hundreds (maybe even thousands) of movies that can also be used as traps for the sinister game of “data collection.” Listed below are a few of the movies I was given in June 2026. All of them are traps for “data” collection to prove that I am a child / teen predator:

The Pianist – directed by Roman Polanski who was involved in a major sexual-abuse scandal in 1977: he was indicted in Los Angeles on six charges involving a 13-year-old girl, including rape, sodomy and providing a controlled substance to a minor. He ultimately pleaded guilty to unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor but fled the United States in 1978 before sentencing and has never returned to face the outstanding warrant. Here the Checchi family attempts to get this as “data” evidence in a “guilt by association” trap.

Michael – a movie about the alleged child abuser Michael Jackson. Here the Checchi family attempts to get this as “data” evidence in a “guilt by association” trap.

Stargate – a movie that features scantily clad children during the last half of the movie.

Animal Miracles – a show that also highlights children and their animals.

Noah's Ark – a show you expect to be Biblical but… it features a fabricated teenage son of Noah who died in the flood because he chose the party / sex lifestyle when he abandoned his family who was safe on the ark when the flood came.

Beyond the Sea - starring gay actor Kevin Spacey as singer Bobby Darin, with a child actor portraying Darin during his childhood. The child appears throughout the film alongside Spacey’s adult portrayal. Since many gay people will watch a Kevin Spacey movie simply because he’s gay, this is a blatant attack on the gay community to set them up with “data” evidence that includes a movie which features a child throughout the movie.

The September Issue - a documentary chronicling the life of Vogue editor Anna Wintour but spends a lot of time showing teenage models.

And it’s not just Amazon.com. I went searching for a place to watch movies on my computer where I could safely watch without worrying about being set up or framed. So far, I have not found any service that feels safe. In my personal experience, this manipulated, manufactured “data evidence” nonsense goes on at Disney, Peacock, Hulu, YouTube, Apple and many other platforms.

Apple, for example, has a very long list of things I believe were used in this way to frame and trap unsuspecting customers. I shared my perspective with Tim Cook in a long email when he was CEO of Apple. For $2 or $3, Apple Music sold me a download called “40 Most Beautiful Piano Classics,” which I played all the time without being suspicious enough. It took me months to notice that this was more “data” that the CIA Checchi family was using against me, with suspicious child-centric titles such as Bagatelle in A Minor, Children’s Corner I, Children’s Corner III, Fantasia in D Minor, Kinderszenen, Nocturne No. 1 in B-Flat Minor, Nocturne No. 19 in E Minor, Pavane pour une Infante, Waltz No. 3 in A Minor, Waltz No. 7 in C-Sharp Minor, and Waltz No. 10 in B Minor, to name a few.

It is a fact that the CIA Checchi family uses this kind of “data” to frame people. I know this because they did it to me! They constantly brought this “data evidence” from my computer activity to court to “prove” I was a pedophile. To create this kind of massive “data trap” machine, the Checchi family must control the leader of the business.

These kinds of unethical and dishonest games are how Oprah Winfrey, Michael Fisher, David Kanuth, Adam Checchi, Kathy Checchi, Al Checchi and other CIA Checchi family cult leaders make billions and billions of dollars collecting dishonest “data” about people and accusing them of being child predators. What they do is offensive, dishonest, sneaky, wrong and genuinely obscene. Furthermore, it appears that they are bilking the government of billions and billions of dollars playing these fraudulent games with millions and millions of people. Apple, YouTube and Amazon are the worst offenders who are knowingly or unknowingly complicit in facilitating these unethical games that are foisted on unassuming citizens, in my opinion. 

Allegedly, they control Amazon leader Jeff Bezos and by doing this, they all make large amounts of money because Amazon (and other websites) are not just about buying things or offering entertainment services – they collect data on everyone who visits the sight. This is why Jeff Bezos is so rich. He probably has no idea they are using him to frame millions of Americans in totally unjust ways. I found it very hard to believe such a conspiracy could happen in the United States of America – until it happened to me.

Another spy game that they use Amazon for is the sabotage of food and merchandise that people buy. If you are on the Checchi family sh*t list, they have easy access through Amazon to poison your food (or in the least give you diarrhea), put tracking devices in your sneakers or other items and put hidden microphones or hidden video surveillance devices in the electronics that people buy. This is not just a theory; all of these intrusions have happened to me personally. Also, secret society people and devout religious families are very high on the list of “enemies” of the Checchi family. These hidden surveillance and tracking devices give them “data” they can then use against the people they are targeting.

They even track how long you look at an object on your computer screen. For example, if you’re shopping for a new pair of pants or shoes on Amazon, you may encounter teenage models showing the products you are looking for. If you spend what they believe is too much time looking at the underage model, that can become “data” that could potentially be used against you.

The problem with this kind of evidence “data” is that they don’t know what you are thinking in your head when you look at that person in the ad. Maybe you’re thinking something completely innocent, like, “That person looks like my nephew,” or “That’s a terrible haircut,” or “That person looks very unhappy,” etc. Simply looking at someone who is modeling clothes does not mean you are sexualizing that person.

In my personal experience, the Checchi family plays many games with people in this regard, including using underage models who resemble someone in your life. Their goal, as I understand it, is to get you to pause on that screen longer than you normally would while shopping. The reason why you paused does not matter to them because they are playing a data game: they can record what you looked at, how long you looked at it, and potentially use that behavior to construct a profile without knowing what was actually going through your mind.

Last week I was watching a movie on my computer, and I paused the movie to go do something. When I came back to see the movie, they had put the movie back several minutes to a part that featured a teenager in the movie. Why did they do this? It was another data point to “prove” I was going back again to watch a scene with teenager in it. This “data” corruption and fabrication is such a well-oiled machine, I know I’m not the only person experiencing these things. The Checchi family cult leaders are making BILLIONS OF DOLLARS with these data games. It’s not only unethical, but it’s also un-American!

And the most sinister part of this conspiracy is the secrecy of it all: Because the CIA Checchi family are cloaked in government secrecy, they can file charges against you in court that will enslave you based on this manipulated, fabricated data and you would never know the details of what is going on because it’s all concealed under a cloak of secrecy. 

I was happy to see a law professor write a book in 2026 with a title that was never more accurate and timely, “Your Data Will Be Used Against You: Policing in the Age of Self-Surveillance,” (Andrew Guthrie Ferguson, a professor of law at George Washington University Law School, published by NYU Press in March 2026.).

“Ferguson argues that smartphones, smart cars, smart homes, watches, medical devices, social media, facial recognition, license-plate readers, Google searches and other technologies are creating enormous databases of information about ordinary people—and that police and prosecutors can potentially use that information to identify suspects or build cases against people. He specifically warns that artificial intelligence and data-driven policing can be weaponized and that existing Fourth Amendment protections have not kept pace with the technology,” (from ChatGPT)

I have also written more about this subject in my book, Killer Broadband “Eye Testing” and Other Government Surveillances. I have posted the book at my website, which you can read for free: https://www.CrisisJournalism.com/killer-broadband. You can also get a PDF of the book at the website or at this link: https://drive.proton.me/urls/4TPFNWG4BG#Fazi5Lphfhdf.

This book emerged from my legal battle against the CIA Checchi family cult leaders. I would never have imagined such an invasive program would exist to collect “data” on people, except they tried to use it against me in court. These corrupt CIA people tried dozens and dozens of times to accuse me of inappropriate or illegal behavior based on my interactions with computer and television screens. This book explains how simply looking at things on a screen can get you in trouble with clandestine government agents who will make false claims against citizens in court. They do this for personal financial gain.

In recent years, these technological devices (smart televisions, smart phones, and computers) have been equipped with covert cameras that are used to study individuals as they look at these screens. Beyond mere observation, these cameras are used to scrutinize and analyze individuals' viewing behaviors, often leading to unwarranted and inaccurate conclusions.

If the spies involved in this invasion of privacy are as corrupt as the CIA Checchi family cult leaders are, they will infer all kinds of innocent behavior as something sinister. This could give these spies a pretext to enslave, punish, or even kill people based on the “data” they acquire while watching someone without their consent or knowledge. The truth is that constitutional protections of privacy are under enormous pressure in 2026, as increasingly sophisticated surveillance technologies give government and intelligence agencies unprecedented access to information about people’s lives. Some people would argue that there is no privacy in America in 2026. The real question is: Are those powers being used within constitutional limits? The Constitution was designed to protect Americans from unreasonable government intrusion.

As if this weren’t enough nonsense… In another disturbing twist, some Supreme Court Justices allow this unjust manipulation of “data” to proceed without adequate scrutiny or objection, underscoring a troubling flaw in the judicial system. Why this is allowed at the Supreme Court is also explored in my book, Killer Broadband “Eye Testing” and Other Government Surveillances.

In short, our judicial system in America is generally called an “adversarial” system. This means that a judge or jury listens to two different parties in a case, such as the prosecution and the defense in a criminal trial. Each side is responsible for presenting the facts, evidence, and legal arguments that support its position and challenging the other side’s case.

A party can lose not necessarily because its underlying position was wrong, but because it failed to present enough evidence or make a strong enough legal argument to support its position. The court generally makes its decision based on the record that is developed through this process rather than conducting its own independent investigation of the parties’ claims.

In other words, the parties generally must bring their evidence and arguments to the court. A judge is not supposed to build a better case for either side. Even if a judge can see that a party could have made a stronger argument, the judge generally decides the case based on the law, the evidence and arguments that were presented in court.

After what I learned in my case against the Checchi family, I felt the American people needed to be warned this kind of “eye testing” data collection goes on. So, I wrote, Killer Broadband: “Eye Testing” and Other Government Surveillances.

Book Summary:

Expanding broadband access in rural American communities remains a pivotal goal for politicians vying for support in 2024 elections. According to Broadband Now, an estimated 42 million Americans still lack access to reliable internet service. Microsoft's data indicates that over 120 million people in the United States don't experience the internet at broadband speeds.

While the internet offers immense potential for enriching lives, it also harbors unseen dangers. In this eye-opening book, Dillon Woods shares his harrowing encounters with government agents exploiting the internet to ensnare and manipulate unsuspecting individuals for personal profit. These corrupt agents operate within an ethically questionable realm, conducting clandestine 'eye tests' on citizens through their computers and televisions without consent. Those who fail these tests face dire consequences, including death.

This book sheds light on a disturbing reality that most technology enthusiasts remain unaware of. It serves as a crucial read for anyone deeply engaged with television, movies, streaming services, computers and the internet, offering critical insights into the hidden risks posed by our digital landscape.

THE REAL ONLINE PREDATORS

In English, the words “boy” and “girl” can refer not only to children but also, depending on context, to adult males and females. The same thing is true of the word “kid.” An adult can call another adult “kid” without meaning that person is a child. This becomes important when we start talking about “data collection evidence.” The CIA Checchi family cult leaders ignore this reality and use “boy” and “girl” as exclusively relating to “child” in their data points – which specifically denotes a person who has not reached adulthood. This very narrow use of the words is consistent with their brand of corruption, fabrication and lack of mature seriousness when it comes to law enforcement. It’s more proof they are unserious children playing “sophisticated” data games to cheat, trick and deceive purely for personal financial gain.

In their recent attempt to fill my data field (on Amazon, Apple TV, and Peacock) with “free” movies and TV shows, I found a consistent attempt to use the words boy and girl in the titles of shows that they were using to frame me as a child predator. For example, the show, Jack Ryan in Season 1 episode 7 "The Boy" - which is also where they detail how to spread the Ebola virus to kill people. While watching this program, they can rewind the movie back to parts that they want it to look like I was going back to watch a section with kids in it again... to frame me with "data" that is "evidence" of being a child predator. (A side note about the show Jack Ryan: it is full of CIA Checchi family training points for their cult members to follow on a whole variety of topics – from how to spread diseases to harm the public and how to build bombs. They drop little clues like breadcrumbs for their followers who are committed to help bring on a new kind of revolution in America, with the goal of overthrowing the U.S. government.)   

Other examples include, Reacher Season 2 Episode 8 "Fly Boy" and “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.”

The documentary called “30 greatest moments: Adele” - spends over half of the documentary focused on Adele the teenager. Even when they move to her work as an adult, they focus on children - for example, a long conversation about the Spice Girls music group that Adele loved as a child. And there is a segment at an Adele concert in Glastonbury where the creators of this documentary keep rerunning the video clip of a little child with no shirt on, on the shoulders of an adult in the massive crowd, placed right in the center of the screen over and over. People tend to look at things that are toward the center of the screen. So, placing a kid with no shirt on in the middle of the screen makes it more likely that people will look at the child. Looking at the child will be a data point used as evidence against the person watching. Most people don’t realize that many computers, smart phones and TV screens have multiple hidden camaras in them that allow government agents on the other end of the screen to determine exactly what the person’s eyes are focused on. There is one television that even takes a picture of what the viewer is looking at and sends it on to be used as a ‘data point’ against the person. I know about this because they have used these things against me in court and I had to explain to the Justices why they are full of it. Most of the public has no idea the extent to which citizens are being watched as data is being collected against them.

While we are on the topic of Adele – and this goes for many other musicians as well – the content of some of these hit songs (from many artists) started using in excess what I call child-centric words in their lyrics such as kid, children, childhood, baby, girl, boy, young, teen/teenager, etc.

I first noticed it with a singer named Michael Bublé when he used the word “kid” in one of his hit songs. In the song he’s talking to a future romantic partner and calls that person “kid.” That is a very strange choice of words for that context. He’s not alone when choosing that word. I found “kid” was a common word used with popular modern songs from many artists. The more I analyzed this issue, the stranger the data became.

As a song writer myself, I find this issue of using child-centric words peculiar. So, I did an investigation because I began to suspect that this issue was another subtle manipulation by the CIA Checchi family, who controls what becomes a hit song and what artists get elevated to star status.

One methodological problem quickly became obvious. If I searched only for the word “child,” I could miss a much larger vocabulary used to describe young people. A songwriter can use words such as baby, boy, girl, young, kid, teenager/teen, son, daughter or youngster without ever using the word “child.” That meant the investigation could not reasonably be limited to one word. I needed to look at the broader pattern of youth-associated language.

“Kid” appears to become increasingly used in songs. Look at some of the later examples:

In 2002, Fat Joe uses “the kid” as a self-description.

In 2003, 50 Cent repeatedly uses “the kid” as a self-reference.

In 2004, Kanye West describes himself as a “grown ass kid.”

In 2005, 50 Cent again uses “the kid” as a self-reference.

In 2006, several rap songs use “kid” as a slang identity marker.

In 2008, T.I. describes himself as a “college kid.”

And in 2010, Bublé uses “kid” as an intimate address.

Then in 2011, Maroon 5 has the adult narrator being told “I'm a kid” in an explicitly flirtatious/sexual context. That same song appears again in the 2012 Year-End dataset because the song charted in both years.

The 2001 song “Cool, Daddy Cool” by Kid Rock is another example. The song contains explicitly sexual lyrics referring to being attracted to underage girls. Because the song was released to the public as a single, played on the radio, and continues to be available on streaming services, it is viewed by many critics as a cultural vehicle for normalizing illicit sex involving minors. The song was also included on the soundtrack for the movie Osmosis Jones. It was released as a single eight days before Kid Rock’s album Cocky was released. The question is: was Kid Rock or one of his writing partners or producers asked to put this kind of theme in a song, or did it happen organically without any outside manipulation, influence, or suggestion?   

Using ChatGPT, I went back to the actual 5,100-song file of hit songs and analyzed the words year by year from 1965 through 2015. There are 100 hit songs per year. The year-by-year “kid” result shows clearly that there was a huge increase in hit songs using the word “kid.” Here is the percentage of each year's Billboard Year-End songs containing the standalone word “kid”:

There really does appear to be a change in the frequency of using the word “kid” beginning around the late 1990s and becoming considerably more pronounced in the early-to-mid 2000s.

The peak in this dataset is:

2004 — 7% of the year's Top 100 songs contained the word “kid.”

That's 7 out of 100 songs.

Compare that with 1965–1972, which was zero every year.

The earliest examples in our dataset are:

1973 — War, “The Cisco Kid”

1973 — Jud Strunk, “Daisy a Day”

1974 — David Essex, “Rock On”

1975 — Sugarloaf, “Don't Call Us, We'll Call You”

1977 — Eagles, “New Kid in Town”

Then the word appears periodically through the 1980s and 1990s, but the number of appearances increases considerably in the 2000s and especially around 2003–2011.

Some very recognizable examples include:

1983 — Michael Jackson, “Billie Jean”

1990 — Vanilla Ice, “Ice Ice Baby”

1995 — 2Pac, “Dear Mama”

1996 — LL Cool J, “Hey Lover”

1998 — Will Smith, “Gettin' Jiggy wit It”

1999 — Everlast, “What It's Like”

2002 — Eminem, “Cleanin' Out My Closet”

2003 — 50 Cent, “21 Questions”

2003 — Jennifer Lopez, “Jenny from the Block”

2004 — Usher, “Confessions Part II”

2004 — Kanye West, “Through the Wire”

2005 — 50 Cent, “Just a Lil Bit”

2006 — Kelly Clarkson, “Walk Away”

2007 — Ludacris, “Runaway Love”

2008 — Britney Spears, “Piece of Me”

2009/2010 — T.I. & Rihanna, “Live Your Life”

2010 — Michael Bublé, “Haven't Met You Yet”

2011 — Maroon 5, “Moves Like Jagger”

2011 — Lady Gaga, “Born This Way”

2014 — Eminem & Rihanna, “The Monster”

If someone is collecting enormous amounts of information about what people watch, what music they listen to, what they search for, what they pause on (when streaming a movie, for example), what they click on and how long they look at something, there is a huge difference between what a person actually intended to do and what someone else decides that behavior means. That distinction is at the heart of what I have been trying to explain throughout this article. The digital “data” that is being collected by government agents and used against people to claim inappropriate or illegal conduct on the part of innocent citizens is something that should concern everyone who cares about justice and the rule of law.

A person can look at a photograph of a teenager for a variety of reasons that are not nefarious or sexual. For example, they could be looking at the clothes the teenager is wearing or the hairstyle. They can pause a movie because they need to go to the bathroom or go do an errand. They can listen to a song because they like the melody or because it’s just background noise and they are not listening to it at all while they work on something. They can watch a television program because they like the actor or because they are bored or they just need a break from mental or emotional intensity. None of these activities automatically tells you what is going on inside that person's head when they watch a show called “fly boy” or listen to a song called “Haven’t Met You Yet.”

Data collection systems don't know what is going on inside someone's head. They know what happened on the screen. And that is where the danger of misinterpretation and nefarious manipulation of data begins. The system that names and promotes these shows and tunes is rigged so that manufactured accusations can be made against totally innocent citizens.

If someone is willing to take an innocent action, attach a suspicious interpretation to it, and then collect enough of those interpretations together, they can eventually create something that looks like compelling evidence when building a case against someone. This is what I call “dollar store data.” It looks like the real data deal but it’s a fake, cheap and flimsy. It does not hold up under pressure or scrutiny. This sort of nonsense “data evidence” is created by cheap and corrupt dollar store spies such as the CIA Checchi family cult leaders.

It isn't necessarily evidence of what someone did or intended to do. It can be a collection of data points that somebody else has selected, manufactured, interpreted and assembled into a fabricated story about that person. But when this rigged system goes from human collection to hyper-fast data collection done by an advanced superintelligent machine, such as the computer systems being built now, you can be assured that the amount of data being collected, analyzed and interpreted will increase exponentially, while the opportunity for human beings to understand how those conclusions were reached could decrease just as dramatically. A machine can process millions of data points in the time it would take a human being to examine only a handful. If the underlying data is corrupted, manipulated or taken out of context, the machine can simply process that corrupted information faster and turn it into an even larger and more convincing body of “evidence.”

You clicked. You watched. You listened. You paused. You searched. You streamed. And then that information is turned into a “data point” against you. This is not a theory. I know the CIA Checchi family is doing this, because they have done it to me. And I know they are doing it to thousands of other innocent Americans. I know for a fact that this one CIA family has been heavily involved in various companies that are developing these advanced super intelligence machines.

Political and judicial leaders must do something now to confront the corruption that can occur when powerful surveillance technologies, manipulated data and artificial intelligence are placed in the hands of people who are willing to abuse their power. The time to establish meaningful safeguards, transparency and accountability is now in 2026 - before these systems become so powerful that the public can no longer understand how the data is being collected, how it is being interpreted, or how decisions based on that data are being made.

Human behavior itself is one thing. The collection, interpretation and presentation of that behavior as supposed “evidence” about a person's thoughts or intentions is something very different. And this is where I began looking more closely at music.

THE PSYCHOLOGY OF INFLUENCE

There are several reasons why I believe the science of psychology belongs in this discussion about data collection and “artificial” intelligence.

Dr. Dina McMillan is a social psychologist who studies influence and interaction. In her lecture on psychological manipulation, she explains that social psychology examines factors that can change beliefs and behaviors, sometimes without the person consciously noticing that the influence is happening. She describes psychological manipulation as an effort to influence how someone thinks, feels and acts. That is important information about how humans can be manipulated and influenced.

 (https://singjupost.com/unmasking-the-abuser-dina-mcmillan-at-tedxcanberra-full-transcript  "Unmasking the Abuser: Dina McMillan at TEDxCanberra (Full Transcript) – The Singju Post. Dr. McMillan’s 20-minute lecture is also here at this YouTube link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ythOTBEkUZM.)

We normally think of manipulation as something obvious such as: Someone threatens you. Someone is too sweet or too kind towards you. Someone lies to you to get you to do something. Someone physically forces you to do something.

But what if truly sinister, subtle manipulation, influence, and persuasion does not look like that at all? What if the person being influenced or manipulated does not even realize that the influence is taking place? If psychological influence and manipulation can occur without conscious awareness, then we cannot simply say, “Nobody forced me to do anything, therefore nobody influenced me.”

Dr. McMillan's work is concentrated around abusive relationships and coercive control. I am not suggesting that listening to a song is the same thing as being trapped in an abusive relationship. It is not. I know first-hand the horrors of being a friend with someone who is abusive and manipulative. It is hell on Earth. As Dr. McMillan explains, “Your life can be ruined by someone who never puts his hands on you in anger. Coercive control is living under a suffocating system where someone else controls every aspect of your life. What you do, say, eat, how you dress, where and how you live, whether you get an education or have a job, how you spend your money, how many children you have and how you interact with them. Your relationships are monitored – even with your own family, and you can’t have relationships at all unless the person controlling you gives their permission. With no exaggeration, it’s a type of slavery.” This was my exact experience in the CIA Checchi family cult. This is why I call what the Checchi family has created, a genuine cult. They control every aspect of your life and as I was told by them, “you can never leave.”

What I learned by being in this Checchi cult is that influence does not always have to look like control or manipulation. At the time, I didn’t even realize I was in a cult. I only realized it was a cult when they told me I could never leave and be free of their control over my life. I moved all the way to the other side of the country to get away from them in California. They literally moved their spies where I had moved. They continue to stalk me with their spies everywhere I go.

There are underlying psychological principles that are at work in these manipulative situations. The CIA and the military have studied and experimented with these principles for many decades. For them, it’s become an art form. When these manipulative games are unleashed on ordinary, unsuspecting citizens it can ruin someone’s life – turning them upside down and inside out.

A person can be influenced by the environment around them without being ordered to do anything. In the legal world, it’s called “undue influence.” It can be accomplished by repeatedly exposing someone to the same words. The same images. The same stories. The same emotional themes. The same ideas. And they may never be told that any of it was selected for a particular purpose.

This is where popular culture and who controls it becomes important.

 

MUSIC IS PART OF THE ENVIRONMENT AND BECOMES DATA

Music is not simply sound, unless you are listening to instrumental music. Popular modern-day music contains words, stories, emotions, images, memories and associations. People attach songs to relationships, childhood, romantic experiences, political events, movies, friends, and important moments in their lives. A song can be heard once and forgotten. Or it can be heard hundreds of times 

And if the same themes and associations appear repeatedly, they can become familiar and culturally prominent without the listener ever stopping to ask why those themes seem to be appearing everywhere. I am not saying that a song can magically control someone.

It is a much more basic question: Can repeated exposure to selected words, themes, images and emotional messages become part of an influence environment? That is a question worth investigating and something the CIA and the military have been experimenting with for many decades.

And this is where something Dr. McMillan says about manipulation becomes particularly interesting. She describes early manipulative behavior as “scripted behavior with a purpose.” She is talking about interpersonal relationships. But the underlying idea is important for this discussion on manipulated data.

If somebody deliberately selects what another person sees, hears or experiences because they want to produce a particular reaction, then THE SELECTION ITSELF CAN BECOME PART OF THE INFLUENCE PROCESS.

Now take that idea out of a one-on-one relationship and put it into mass culture. What happens when the person being influenced is not one person, but millions of people who are simultaneously listening to a radio station or streaming music or a movie? What happens when the material is not one conversation, but thousands of songs, videos, photographs, movies and social-media messages repeated over many years? In some ways the argument can be made that this is what American culture has become: one big game of manipulation and influence via movies and music that become popular and mainstream. This kind of manipulation / influence game has gone on for as long as the “advertising industrial complex” has existed.

In my own personal experience with the CIA Checchi family, there were a few years where they tried to get me to kill myself by repeatedly placing the topic of suicide everywhere I turned. This is why I know they prioritize this sort of strategy when attempting to manipulate people. The topic of suicide was in a tremendous number of news programs I watched, it was in headlines of articles at news sights, I would stand in line at the grocery store and some of their spies would get in line behind me and discuss suicide. It was everywhere and it was all part of the Checchi family’s manipulative influence campaign to try to get me to kill myself. Once I exposed it and complained to authorities, it went away.

But what Americans are living through in 2026 is how companies are turning this manipulative influence campaign reality into “data” and then using the “data” against citizens for personal profit. The people who are orchestrating this “data” are the manipulators who are making large amounts of money while they do it. That is the issue I am trying to expose because my experience and observation is that pure corruption is running rampant in America with all the intense and prolific “data collection” going on today. And creepy government agents connected to the CIA Checchi family are behind much of it, if not all of it. The Checchi family cult leaders are the architects who created this entire corrupt system.

The word “kid” does not simply go from zero to some enormous number overnight. It gradually becomes more common, with a noticeable concentration of higher-frequency years between roughly 2000 and 2011. That is a legitimate finding. But there is something else I discovered that is even more important: IT IS NOT ONE WORD.

If I had looked only for the word “child,” I could have reached the wrong conclusion. The word “child” declines over the period examined. The broader child/children/childhood family of words also declines.

1965–1969: 2.8% of songs contained “child”
2010–2015: 1.17% contained “child”

That's a decline of approximately 58%, not an increase.

And the broader word family — child + children + childhood — also declined:

1965–1979: 5.73%
1980–1999: 4.25%
2000–2015: 3.19%

When I began this investigation, I expected the data to show that references to children were becoming more common. I have 37 years of experience understanding how the CIA Checchi family cult leaders think and operate their psychological scams on the public. I was certain that I would find an increase in all child-centric words. Instead, the data forced me to change and expand my investigation.

The data surprised me and showed that the word “child” was declining, while several other youth-associated words were increasing. I could not simply ignore those results because they did not fit my original suspicion. It made me think harder about why “child” and that family of words were in decline. If I was going to follow the evidence honestly, I had to look at the broader pattern of youth-associated language rather than continue looking for confirmation of my original theory. This process deepened my findings and expanded my understanding of what I believe the CIA Checchi family was doing to manipulate and influence the public through the orchestration of song lyrics in hit songs.

Why would this happen? I have a theory that directly implicates the CIA Checchi family’s involvement in all of this.

The spy world lives on coded language like humans need oxygen. The word “child,” or derivatives of that word, has been used as what I believe is a derogatory code for the Checchi family. Broken down and translated for you, “Ch” can be interpreted as a code for “Checchi,” while “il” can be interpreted as a code for “ill.” Put them together and the communication is, “Checchi is ill.” This is my theory for why I believe the use of “child” and its derivatives have declined over time. The Checchi family has been manipulatively squeezing that word out of popular use. If the purpose of the code was to communicate something about the Checchi family, then changing the vocabulary would provide a way to communicate the same underlying message without repeatedly using the word “child.” The important point, however, is that I am not claiming the statistical decline by itself proves the existence of such a code. The decline is the data. The proposed coded meaning is my interpretation of what may be behind it.

But other words associated with youth become much more common in popular songs. During the time period that was analyzed, “Baby” increases. “Girl” increases. “Boy” increases. “Young” increases. “Kid” increases. The data therefore produces a seemingly contradictory picture: explicit references to “child” and “children” decline while several other youth-associated terms increase substantially. That tells us something important. I am not looking for one magic word. I am looking for patterns of associated language changing together over time. And that is much more interesting data for this investigation.

In the 60s and 70s – before the Checchi family controlled the music industry - there were major hits using the word “child” or “children” throughout the 1960s and 1970s. For example, Janis Ian had “Society's Child” in 1967. Diana Ross & the Supremes had the No. 1 hit “Love Child” in 1968. Steppenwolf had “Born to Be Wild” in 1968. The Temptations had “Runaway Child, Running Wild” in 1969. The Five Stairsteps had “O-o-h Child” in 1970. Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young had “Teach Your Children” in 1970. Paul Simon had “Mother and Child Reunion” in 1972. Harry Chapin had “Cat's in the Cradle” in 1974. Nick Gilder had “Hot Child in the City” in 1978.  And “Love Child” was a No. 1 song in 1968. So, the evidence does NOT support the argument that the word “child” suddenly appeared in popular music at some later time. In fact, the opposite is true: the word was very present in music and then, it virtually disappeared. That is an important finding.

It also tells me something else. If somebody wanted to investigate psychological influence through popular music, searching for one particular word would be far too simplistic. The vocabulary surrounding the subject is much broader: Baby. Boy. Girl. Kid. Young. Teenager. Son. Daughter. Child. Children. Childhood.

The question becomes whether those words and the ideas associated with them change together in unusual ways. That is a much better question.

THE PSYCHOLOGICAL FUNCTION AND INFLUENCE OF WORDS

This is where I return to Dr. McMillan. The hypothesis I am examining is not that the public consciously recognizes the influence of a word such as “kid” because it is repeated in a song. The hypothesis is much more subtle.

Repeated exposure to selected words, themes, images, narratives and associations could potentially contribute to an environment in which particular ideas become more familiar, more emotionally salient or more culturally prominent — even when people are not consciously thinking about the process.

Dr. McMillan's explanation of psychological manipulation is relevant here because she specifically discusses influence over what people think, feel and do, and emphasizes that such influence may not always be consciously recognized. That does not prove that somebody is manipulating popular music for nefarious reasons. But it gives us a reason to investigate whether that could be happening.

THE ABSENCE OF EVIDENCE IS NOT THE EVIDENCE OF ABSENCE

The problem with highly sophisticated criminal psychopaths and sociopaths—people capable of carefully planning horrific acts while methodically concealing their manipulative tracks—can be summed up in one principle that journalists, judicial leaders, and political leaders must never forget: “The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence.” Sophisticated criminals can make the absence of obvious evidence look like evidence that they were not involved in the crime.

The fact that sophisticated criminals exist is undisputed. Some people commit serious crimes, conceal evidence, destroy records, manipulate or terminate witnesses, use intermediaries, exploit weaknesses in investigative systems, manipulate investigators, and sometimes evade detection for years or even decades. A crime does not become less real simply because the person who committed it was careful enough not to leave an obvious fingerprint. We cannot let the absence of evidence be a continual 'get out of jail' free card for these people who are known to be prolific manipulators evading justice.

This is why the phrase “there is no evidence” must never automatically be treated as the end of an investigation or piece of journalism. Sometimes there truly is insufficient evidence to establish that something happened to directly link a criminal to the act. But sometimes the more important question is: Why is there no evidence? Was nobody looking? Was the right evidence preserved? Was it hidden, destroyed, altered, sealed, overlooked, or never collected in the first place? Did investigators have access to the people, records, communications, financial transactions, or technological systems that could reveal what actually happened? 

Journalists have a particular responsibility in situations like this. If a powerful institution or individual says, “There is no evidence,” a journalist should not simply repeat that conclusion as though it were a finding of fact. The journalist should ask what was investigated, what evidence was sought, what evidence was available, what evidence was inaccessible, and whether reasonable alternative explanations have been examined. “No evidence was found” and “no wrongdoing occurred” are not the same statement.

The same principle and standards should be used in relation to judicial and political leaders. A free society cannot protect itself from tyrants, dictators, and oppressors by investigating only the crimes that leave convenient fingerprints. Leaders committed to protecting constitutional rights and opposing oppression must be willing to investigate difficult allegations even when the evidence is incomplete or non-traditional.

For example, in my case against the CIA Checchi family, many people involved began to see a disturbing pattern emerge. Every time they lost an aspect of the case, another mass shooting would occur somewhere in America or another country. After seven years and thousands of mass shootings occurring, you could almost set your watch to it happening after they lost in court. This happened again and again during the years of my court battle against this CIA family.

There was no “smoking gun” proving that they were responsible for orchestrating those shootings. But after thousands of mass shootings during the court case a pattern set in that was undeniable. And this pattern directed attention to them. There was no direct evidence that anyone could point to and say, “they are killing all of these innocent people as acts of retaliation because they are sore losers.” But that does not mean the pattern should be ignored.

In the minds of many people involved in watching this drama, the pattern raised serious suspicions about whether the Checchi family was connected to these shootings. But suspicion was not proof, which is precisely why the pattern deserved attention. Thousands of innocent people died. If they were very angry about losing in court, it appeared that they would target and kill children in school shootings. Is it fair or even sane to let people like this get away with such heinous crimes just because there is no direct evidence connecting them to the shooters? The pattern itself, combined with their reputation for retaliation, revenge, and vengeance, raises legitimate suspicion and hints at a direction to look.

If highly “sophisticated” criminals are capable of planning horrible crimes and carefully covering their tracks, then investigators cannot reasonably say, “There is no direct evidence, so there is nothing to investigate.” It’s not unreasonable to ask the question, “why bother investigating when there is no direct evidence to be found or if there is evidence, it is evidence left to frame someone who is innocent?”  

When the pattern of these mass shootings became clear, many people believed it pointed directly to the Checchi family. I found myself wondering whether it was possible that someone else was orchestrating the shootings in an attempt to frame the Checchi family. I ultimately found that possibility difficult to believe because, in my view, the Checchi family had developed such a massive reputation for brutal and cruel retaliation against both their friends and enemies that I could not imagine anyone deliberately taking that risk.

The pattern itself can be the reason to start looking more closely. It can raise questions that deserve answers. Were the events actually connected? Was there a common person, organization, communication, financial transaction or other piece of evidence connecting them? Were there facts that investigators had overlooked? Were there other explanations that could account for the pattern?

A pattern is not automatically proof of who caused or orchestrated a crime. But a series of patterns can be evidence that something deserves attention. That distinction is important. We should never convict an innocent person simply because a pattern looks suspicious. At the same time, we should never protect a guilty person simply because they were clever enough to hide their fingerprints and conceal evidence of their involvement.

That is the balance a healthy democracy requires: be skeptical when investigating something, but not cynical; investigate without bias; and demand proof while remembering that the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

Justice cannot depend on criminals leaving fingerprints. If the only crimes we are willing to investigate are the ones where the evidence is already sitting neatly on the table, then the most careful criminals will always have an enormous advantage.

The duty of a free society is to follow the facts wherever they lead—and to keep looking when the people responsible may have gone to great lengths to make sure the evidence is never found. We can't let “sophisticated” people like this escape accountability and continue their tyranny simply because they were clever enough to conceal the evidence. If we do, we put democracy and the rule of law at risk. Tyranny and oppression thrive when people stop asking questions—and “justice for all” fails when “we found no evidence” becomes an excuse to stop looking for clues. We must ensure that powerful people cannot make the truth disappear simply by making the evidence difficult to find.

PSYCHOLOGICAL INFLUENCE OF DATA

Now we come to the part of this story that I believe is especially important in 2026. If people are exposed to something, they can respond to it. And in the digital world, those responses generate data.

They stream the song. They search for the song. They watch the video. They share the song. They add it to a playlist. They listen again. They follow the artist. They buy the music. Every one of those actions can become another data point.

And this brings us back to my distinction between behavioral evidence and data evidence. Behavior is what the person actually does. Data evidence is what somebody does with the information collected about that behavior. Data can be collected. Data can be aggregated. Data can be selected. Data can be interpreted. And data can be manipulated, fabricated and manufactured. That is the distinction I believe we need to understand.

Suppose a person listens to a song containing the word “child.” The person's behavior is simple: They listened to a song. But suppose somebody takes that information and adds it to hundreds of other pieces of information. Now it becomes song → stream → account → profile → interpretation → allegation. 

What they are saying, as a “data point,” is that when someone streams a song containing the word “child” or some similar child-centric reference, that activity can be added to a profile as supposed evidence that the person is a child predator or a potential child predator. In other words, a person who likes songs that reference children might be focused on children in a conscious or subconscious way. I believe the larger goal may be to use this kind of “data” to predict who they claim might become a child predator before that person ever harms a child.

In other words, it would be a kind of “pre-crime” system. This reminds me of the Checchi-family-created movie starring Tom Cruise, Minority Report, which was built around the idea of identifying and stopping people before they commit a crime. I believe the “minor” reference in the title of the movie is a significant and deliberate choice by the Checchi family—a sort of “clue” for their spies watching the movie. For decades, the Checchi family in Beverly Hills has been making movies in Hollywood to communicate with their spies around the world.

My theory is that the CIA Checchi family created Minority Report as a lesson or model for their spies—a fictional example of the kind of “law enforcement” system they were building to predict criminal behavior, create heinous accusations against innocent people who had committed no crime, and make money from the resulting system. I am presenting this as my interpretation of the pattern I have observed with the Checchi family, not as something the statistical data alone proves.

Every arrow in that chain matters. If one link is wrong, the conclusion can be wrong. If several links are wrong, the entire story can be fabricated while still appearing to contain an enormous amount of “data.” This is why I believe the phrase “data evidence” is so important to understand correctly. A thousand pieces of questionable information do not automatically become reliable “evidence” simply because there are a thousand of them.  

DIGITAL STREAMING

This is where the digital world creates another potential problem. Streaming is data. And streaming data can be manipulated. Spotify (the massively popular music streaming service) itself acknowledges artificial streaming as a problem and describes abnormal activity that can include unexplained spikes, unusual geographic sources and other suspicious patterns, https://artists.spotify.com/artificial-streaming. There is documented evidence that artificial streaming is a real industry problem.

Spotify also says that confirmed artificial streams can be removed from public counts and charts. The music industry has likewise acknowledged that artificial streams can distort charts and playlists and affect the music that people encounter. The International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), for example, explicitly says that artificial streams can distort charts and playlists and manipulate the algorithms that determine what people encounter.

This isn't theoretical. In Brazil, authorities arrested an individual who had generated more than 28 million fake plays across Spotify using more than 400 uploaded tracks. The operation generated more than $65,000.

In another Brazilian investigation, authorities uncovered a large network selling artificial streams, likes and followers. The operation involved a botnet and resulted in the disruption of dozens of services.

Courts have also ruled against companies selling fake streams and engagement services. One Brazilian court specifically found that artificially boosting audiences creates a false perception of what content deserves attention.

All of this raises an especially important question: if someone claims that a person is a potential child predator because of their streaming behavior, what exactly is the evidentiary chain?  

Song → stream → account → behavioral profile → algorithmic score → interpretation → allegation.

That distinction matters because the first part of the chain is not necessarily a reliable measure of what a person actually intended. A person can stream a song for many reasons, and the mere presence of a particular word in a song does not, by itself, establish why someone listened to it or what that person thinks about the subject.

There is also another problem with manipulated streaming data: artificial streams can create the appearance that a song is more popular than it really is. And once something appears popular, popularity itself can create more popularity in the digital world. That is what professionals call a “feedback loop.” Spotify itself acknowledges that its recommendation systems can be exploited. In 2025, it announced a spam-filtering system intended to detect mass uploads, duplicates, SEO manipulation, artificially short tracks and other tactics designed to exploit the platform's recommendation and royalty systems.

Artificial streams → higher apparent popularity → greater algorithmic exposure → more genuine listeners → higher chart position → greater cultural visibility → awards and recognition → still more exposure.

Think about what that means. A song does not necessarily have to begin as a genuine cultural phenomenon. If its popularity signal can be artificially increased, that signal can potentially cause other systems to treat the song as popular. The algorithm sees it. The playlist sees it. The chart sees it. The media sees it. The public sees it. Then more people see it. And now something that began as an artificial signal can potentially produce genuine attention. That is a very different situation from simply measuring what the public naturally wanted.

MANIPULATION OF HIT SONGS BECOMES SERIOUS

Dr. McMillan makes another important point about psychological manipulation: it can work even when the person being influenced does not recognize what is happening. That is important because somebody can honestly say: “Nobody forced me to listen to that song.” I agree. Nobody may have forced you.  

But that does not answer the question of how the song got in front of you in the first place. Who promoted it? Who recommended it? Why did the algorithm recommend it? Why did it become popular? Were the numbers organic? Was the song receiving unusual exposure? Was it being placed on thousands or millions of playlists? Was it being pushed by radio stations? Was it receiving unusual social-media attention? Was that social media attention promoted by genuine people or by bots? Were artificial streams involved? Those are the questions investigators should be asking about hit songs. Because the influence may occur before the person ever makes the choice of what song to listen to.

THE AWARD MACHINE IS OFTEN CORRUPT

In America, what makes an artist, musician, director, producer, writer, or actor rich and famous no longer depends solely on talent or hard work, but, in my view, can also depend on their value as a spy for the CIA Checchi family terrorists who control the music and movie industries. Prizes such as an Oscar or Grammy can then become rewards not for people who make outstanding contributions to filmmaking or music, but for people who are willing to work within this alleged network and use their “art” as a front for their spy work.

There are many talented artists who never receive the recognition they deserve because, I believe, they refuse to do what the CIA Checchi family insists they do—work as spies for its network and use their “art” as a cover for their alleged intelligence activities. They also make their people do crazy, illegal things so that they can be blackmailed into submission – such as sex with underage teens, financial crimes, or other crimes that can be used as leverage against them, ensuring that they remain under the network’s total control because they know that any disobedience could also expose the crimes they were coerced into committing.

When I first moved to Los Angeles, I met with a man who was a very influential person in Hollywood. He was influential in Hollywood primarily because he spent nearly four decades at the center of the American film industry's institutional and political machinery. He led the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) from 1966 to 2004. That put him in a powerful position representing the major movie studios in Washington and for all these years he dealt with issues affecting the entire film industry. He was a close family friend of a close friend of mine and that is why he agreed to meet with me on a couple of occasions.

One day he agreed to meet me for lunch as I picked his brain about the acting business in Hollywood. His advice was clear, “you don’t want to get involved in this if you can help it. If there is anything else you are interested in besides acting, do that instead. What they make these actors do to become successful is very bad stuff. You don’t want to get involved in that if you can do something else with your life.” At the time, I had no idea what he was talking about. It would take me decades of experiences with the CIA Checchi family before I understood the full meaning of his warning.

There is another potential amplification effect that cannot be ignored: Award shows. If manipulated streams make a song or movie appear enormously popular, that popularity can potentially produce legitimate cultural momentum. A song can receive more playlist placement. Then more media coverage. Then more radio play. Then more performances. Then nominations. Then awards. Then even more listeners. At that point, the original signal may become almost impossible to separate from the genuine popularity that followed the song.

The music industry has a legitimate reason to be concerned about this because artificial streaming can distort charts and playlists and make it harder for legitimate artists to break through. So, the question I am asking is not: Can someone manipulate a streaming number? We already know that it’s a fact this can happen. The much bigger question is: Can manipulation of digital popularity metrics create cultural momentum that later appears completely organic?  That is a question that can be investigated and it’s important because the words of songs can influence people in both negative and positive ways.

There are two different possibilities here. The first is a classification function. Someone collects information about what a person watches, listens to, searches for or clicks on and uses that information as part of a profile. The second is a psychological function. The cultural environment itself is repeatedly filled with certain words, themes, images and associations, potentially making those ideas more familiar, emotionally significant or culturally prominent. These are two different theories, and they should not be confused. The first concerns the use of data to classify people. The second concerns the possibility that the cultural environment itself can influence how people feel, think and act.

And if both were ever shown to be operating together, the implications would be enormous. Because then the system would not merely be measuring behavior. It would potentially be influencing the environment that produces the behavior and then collecting the resulting behavior as evidence against that person. That is the part of this investigation that concerns me most.

The critical issue is what happens when the environment is manipulated first and the behavior is measured second. At that point, the resulting data may no longer be telling us simply what people naturally wanted. It may also be measuring what happened after someone changed, influenced, or manipulated the environment around them.

THE DATA FEEDBACK LOOP

Imagine the system this way: Select and manipulate the content of a song or movie. Increase the song or movie’s exposure. Increase engagement people make with the song or movie. Collect the engagement data. Use the data to demonstrate apparent popularity. Use the apparent popularity to justify even more exposure. Collect even more data. Then use the accumulated data as evidence of public preference or individual behavior. That is a feedback loop.

And once the loop is operating, it becomes extremely difficult for the average person to know where the original influence began. Was the song or movie popular because people wanted it? Or did people want it because the song or movie was repeatedly placed in front of them? Or was the song or movie artificially made to appear popular first, causing more people to encounter it? Those are not the same thing.

THE REAL DANGER OF “DATA EVIDENCE”

My seven-year legal battle against the CIA Checchi family cult leaders is why I keep coming back to the phrase “data evidence.” They continually presented manipulated, fabricated, and manufactured “evidence” to the court in which they made inferences about my illegal or inappropriate conduct.  

We have entered an era in the United States of American in which almost everything we do digitally can potentially produce a record that could potentially show up in court one day. As the saying goes, "Dance like no one is watching, but text, post on social media, and send emails like they will one day be read in an open court."

What we watch. What we listen to. What we search for. What we click. What we pause. What we buy. What we share. How long we remain on a page. The danger is not necessarily the individual piece of information. The danger is what happens when thousands or millions of these pieces of information are collected and assembled into a story about a human being.

Dr. McMillan's discussion of psychological manipulation makes this even more important because she points out that influence can operate without a person consciously recognizing it. If that is true, then we cannot simply dismiss the possibility of influence because the person being influenced says, “I never noticed anything.” Of course they may not have noticed. That is precisely what makes subtle influence subtle. The military and the CIA have worked hard for many decades studying and experimenting with this sort of manipulation and influence campaign.

The CIA Checchi family cult has worked for decades in perfecting their own brand and style of this kind of manipulation machine. In the 1990s I was told by a Checchi spy that “the CIA can turn anyone into any kind of criminal.” When I heard this, I was in complete disbelief that this could be true. After 37 years of being a target of intense CIA Checchi family manipulation and abuse of power, I can now see how easy it is to influence an unsuspecting citizen to feel, think and do things based purely on tactics of undue influence and manipulation. Music and movies both play a role in the Checchi family’s campaign to manipulate the masses.

An example of how the CIA Checchi family cult creates national situations of undue influence and entrapment in America can be seen in this one video celebrating Willie Nelson’s 70th birthday. This is the kind of thing the CIA Checchi family uses to enslave millions of people in America on the issue of marijuana. In 2026, recreational marijuana continues to be a Schedule I substance under the Controlled Substances Act - which at the time this video of his birthday was recorded (link below), is the most serious felony. Getting celebrities who are under the control or influence of the CIA Checchi cult (allegedly, many of these celebrities in this video are part of the CIA Checchi cult) to make fun of this drug and see them having a good time with it… creates a situation of undue influence and can even aid in creating a situation of entrapment and undue influence for many Americans who watch the video as a fan of these celebrities.

This video was recorded in New York City and is the kind of thing that one of the Checchi cult leaders would have conceived and had someone approach Willie (who I’m convinced was totally in the dark about how they were using him in this way) and say, “it’s your 70th birthday. Let’s do a big TV special with lots of celebrities. It will make a lot of money.” Hence, Willie Nelson & Friends "Live and Kicking" in 2003, was born.

Then, they get a bunch of Checchi-spy celebrities to be part of this massive TV special and influence someone to write a song promoting marijuana use (which, allegedly, Willie has been used by the CIA Checchi cult leaders to promote for decades). To watch the marijuana song go to this link 1:06:09

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a1veY6_nUcE&list=PLt_L-ABqnN-k_9i4ni2XxBADCImfkKw5g&index=262

Once the CIA Checchi family controls the politicians that make the laws (Pataki was governor of New York in 2003), control the police, mayors, city council leaders, and judges that enforce the laws and also control the celebrities who promote breaking the laws… you have a psychological powerhouse of undue influence that will affect millions of people and be used to enslave millions of people in New York and throughout the country because the people being manipulated and influenced to smoke marijuana are committing a crime and breaking the law. Slavery in America has been abolished, “except as a punishment for crime.” And, because the Checchi family cult leaders are protected under a cloak of CIA secrecy, people can be enslaved into their cult and never know it’s happening.

FOLLOW THE DATA — BUT FOLLOW IT ALL THE WAY

The music industry gives us an excellent laboratory for studying this problem because music produces enormous amounts of measurable information. We can examine the lyrics. We can examine the charts. We can examine streaming. We can examine playlists. We can examine radio. We can examine album sales. We can examine awards. We can examine social-media activity. We can examine concert tours. We can examine news stories. We can examine the people and organizations behind the music. And then we can ask whether all of those pieces fit together naturally. Or whether there are fingerprints of something nefarious going on.

If the evidence ultimately shows that changing musical language is simply the result of changing culture, then that is what the evidence shows. If the evidence shows that streaming manipulation occurred, then we need to know who did the manipulation, how they did it and why. If the evidence shows that themes in songs and movies were deliberately promoted, then we need to know who selected them and why.

And if someday the evidence shows that the same people or organizations were manipulating cultural exposure, collecting the resulting data, and profiting from it, then we will have something much more significant than a suspicious song lyric. We will have a corrupt system. And that is what I am looking for because after what I’ve been through fighting this CIA Checchi family in court, I am certain they are behind one of the biggest scandals in American history: manipulating cultural exposure to the masses, collecting the resulting data and making hundreds of billions of dollars a year, which turned into trillions of dollars in their treasury account.

When Merrick Garland’s DOJ was giving me information during some of the most intense times during this court battle with the CIA Checchi family, I was told that the Checchi family paid over 60 trillion dollars in fines because they had broken so many laws during the court battle. I was shocked that anyone would have this much money to pay fines. And I was shocked that I knew people who were this wealthy. It turns out, this kind of massive cultural scam machine founded on undue influence and entrapment is how they made all that money. They were getting paid for fabricating this kind of data on people and getting paid for neutralizing threats to “national security” – much of it based on total fraud and fabrication of data. They have been scamming the United States government for decades. And, with the dawn of this new Artificial Intelligence technology, they are poised to make so much money because they have been setting the foundation for this kind of scam from the beginning of its inception.  

I am not against new technologies like ChatGPT. I wrote this entire article using ChatGPT and it would not have been produced so quickly if I had to do all the investigation myself in the old school way of doing things. It would have taken me a year or more to go through all the hit songs and lyrics to determine how many had child-centric words in them. ChatGPT did it in mere minutes. It also found a flaw that there were over 100 song lyrics missing from the data base. I found this suspicious and suspected it was more CIA Checchi family interference in my investigation. They refuse to leave me alone and let me do my work without interfering in some way, be it large or small obstructions.

As for the new data centers that have become a massive controversy in 2026, Americans must be concerned about the integrity, purpose, and use of these new technologies. Concerning the point of this article, we were not looking for one suspicious song. We were not looking for one suspicious word in a song. We were not looking for one suspicious data point. We were looking for the system that connects them. Because the real question is not whether data exists. The real question is: Who controls the data, who controls the environment that creates the data, and what happens when manipulated data is presented to the public — or to a court — as if it were objective truth? That is the question we should all be asking. That is the issue we should all be concerned about.
