    “Whoever did this does not understand that stealing newspapers doesn’t stop a story,” she told readers in her email.

    This story was already lowkey national news but now it’s going to go nuclear. Whoever stole the papers, what a complete moron.

    Fools, you’re supposed to set up an elaborate printer press system, where you create an entire edition of a newspaper, but replace the no no story with a different one, THEN you steal all the newspapers, but swap them with yours, everyone gets a newspaper, no one really knows anything happend except maybe a couple of people and you gaslight them or arrest them.

    Now this random idiot in rurual Australia knows that the Ouray County Police Chiefs step son is a rapist.

    How hard is it to do a cover-up…

    Edit: put the wrong person.

      Technically, I believe it’s the police chief’s stepson who’s accused of rape, along with two other people.

      How hard is it to do a cover-up…

      Given that the entire population of Ouray County is 4,874, they may not have either the required density of criminal masterminds to pull off your plot, nor sufficient anonymity to get away with it.
