I have worked on extremely complex cases; one took almost 3 years alone. I have also worked on many government corruption cases. I know the mindsets of politicians (they are narcissists that try to put out the image they are invincible while quaking in their boots because just about everyone of them are liars and have skeletons in their closets), the roadblocks they throw up and the collusive elements the investigators face. My problem is the dangling carrot syndrome. Stop stringing us along with supposed dates that you are going to reease the big news and just show us something when you are ready. If I were them I would say nothing more about the proposed dates
I play my cards close to the vest, so I wouldn’t use the phrase “universe shattering information” and I wouldn’t drop dates either. On the surface it seems rather foolish, which makes me wonder if it’s part of a strategy.
