Fabian Marta, a man who had contributed to the well-known anti-child sex trafficking film Sound of Freedom, has officially had previously filed charges of child kidnapping dropped against him.

A St. Louis grand jury, as well as the state of Missouri, found no evidence that a crime had been committed.


quote:

"Now comes the State of Missouri and enters a memorandum of Nolle Prosequi in the above-styled cause for the reason that this matter has been presented to the St. Louis Circuit Court Grand Jury and the State has insufficient evidence to obtain a conviction," reads a memorandum on the recently closed case.

Media outlets had a field day when Fabian was first arrested on the dubious charges, despite the backer being one of over 6,000 "angel investors" as described by Angel Studios' investing policy.

It was a packaged smear.

Now why would they do so much to try and stop, then discredit a simple documentary?

Cause they want to use the Teddy Bear.

The process is the punishment.

They were able to leverage their friends in the media to cast doubt and convince the herd of ill doing behind the film. That's all they needed, they didn't care about an outcome beyond that.

Much like a certain Mueller investigation into Russia collusion.


Weird.
