Andrew Esquire: “The Tate Brothers are almost certainly NOT going to be granted bail

No test — this claim will not resolve

No machine-checkable test was locked with this record, so it is preserved rather than scored. Thonest never invents a threshold or deadline the speaker did not give.

No objective test could be drawn from these words, so nothing can settle it. The statement is preserved and dated, and never counted for or against anyone. Thonest will not invent a threshold or a date that was never said — a claim scored against criteria written afterwards would prove nothing.

What was said around it · sha256 0xeb5dadec…a9bc53

Overall, here's my judgment: the Tate brothers are almost certainly NOT going to be granted bail, even if they prove no flight risk, they don't have a special circumstance to justify release. The Tate Brothers are almost certainly NOT going to be granted bail

✓ The anchored proof cannot be rewritten, and the published record is append-only by default. Everything that happened afterward is in the history above — corrections are appended, never silently edited in.

Verify this record yourself

The check runs in your browser and reads the anchored root straight from a public Base node — not from Thonest. How this works.
