Can anybody Here sort this out?

The gist of it, from what I can see, is this man threatened to accuse Matt Goetz of sex crimes unless he got paid.

But instead of falling for it they immediately went to the FBI. And then... *somehow*... it leaked to the news that Goetz was “accused”.

Do I have that right? Is the FBI once again complicit??

[Does so]

The raid on Project Veritas was leaked in record time to the New York Times.

(And the NYTs is currently the subject of a Project Veritas civil lawsuit).

Yes, Alford was extorting Matt’s dad, saying his son was being investigated by the FBI and would go to jail unless he paid the money. Alford claimed his partner had connections to make the charges disappear and make his son come out looking like a hero. Like I said above, the FBI was probably involved from the beginning.
