internet memory is forever, context is not.

Time is also an important factor for me. A conviction from over a decade ago is relevant, but context matters—age at the time, sentence served, and what’s happened since. If there’s no evidence of repeated offenses or further legal action, I’m cautious about letting one historical event define an ongoing narrative. At the same time, if multiple credible outlets independently reference new, documented issues, that would shift the analysis. The key difference is whether the newer information is substantiated or just speculative commentary piggybacking on an old case.

I’ve noticed that too. Dates quietly disappear, and suddenly a ten year old case feels like breaking news again. This thread is a good reminder that clarity usually comes from fewer sources, not more. One solid document beats ten vague summaries every time.

I also think we underestimate how different legal truth and online truth are. Legally, a matter can be closed, resolved, and fully accounted for. Online, it remains open forever because there’s no mechanism for closure. That gap creates space for people to keep adding theories or assumptions, even when there’s no new information to support them.

I think skepticism plus humility is the right mix. Skepticism toward claims without proof, and humility about how little we can actually know from public summaries alone. Once you adopt that mindset, these kinds of profiles lose a lot of their power to mislead.

Precision usually signals stronger sourcing. Vagueness often signals opinion or aggregation.
