Who is “pizzagate shooter” Edgar Maddison Welch?

With an “uncredited extra” part in The Bleeding, (2009) Starring: Armand Assante, DMX, Michael Madsen and famous British footballer, Vinnie Jones, people have been wondering why The New York Times fails to mention it.

Who is Harry L. Welch, Jr?.

Edgar Maddison Welch’s father, Harry L. Welch Jr. also has an IMDb page. One of Harry Welch’s companies is a film production company called Forever Young Productions, Inc. so it’s not unusual to see he also has an IMDb page. However, the things listed on his IMDb page are so far afield of film making, and are so unusual, they seem to be spoofs, or put another way, “fake”. All of the items listed on the Harry L. Welch Jr. IMDb page, he confirms on his personal website:

Harry has been a NRA firearms instructor for over 35 years. He is rated as a Fire Arm Training Counselor, which enables him to train others trying to get their instructor's rating. Harry has taught hundreds of civilians, military, and law enforcement officers in the tactical use of firearms and CCW classes. He is recognized as an expert firearms witness by the North Carolina Supreme Court.
Elected President of the North Carolina Crime Stoppers Association (two terms). Served as Executive Director for Protect-A-Child, a national, non-profit organization to prevent abuse and abduction of children. Appointed by Governor Jim Martin to the Governor's Commission on Child Victimization.
In 1988, President Ronald Reagan selected Harry to join 15 other broadcasters to visit US Military Installation in Colorado. They received national clearance from the US Defense Department to visit the Cheyenne Mountain Nuclear Bunker the alternate command center for NORAD.
Harry worked on federal, state and local task forces fighting the war on drugs. He served five years with the Rowan County ABC police. Duties included: stakeouts, watching illegal stills, patrolling the county for suspected bootleggers transporting non-tax paid whiskey, working undercover to purchase illegal liquor and participating in raids on stills and gambling houses. Their agency also worked with the U.S. Treasury Department's local office of Alcohol, Tobacco & Firearms which increased their coverage area to eight counties.
Harry is a special deputy with the Iredell County Sheriff's Department.
Curiously, this Washington Post article written extensively about Edgar Maddison Welch’s parents and home-life, also never mentions that Harry Welch Jr. works in law enforcement, has done under-cover operations, was a broadcaster hand-picked by Reagan, is an expert in fire arms, has national security clearance from the Department of Defense, or that he:

Served as Executive Director for Protect-A-Child, a national, non-profit organization to prevent abuse and abduction of children.
This seems like an obvious connection to the story about his son rescuing children- yet it is never mentioned.

What is Forever Young Productions, Inc.?

Edgar Madison Welch, his father Harry L. Welch Jr. and his mom Terri, all work for their family-owned film production company called, Forever Young Productions, Inc.

They make films with and about children. The public Facebook page of their film “Mermaid Treasure”, shows Edgar acting and assisting in the production, tagged in these behind the scenes production photos-which are the same photos on the website of Forever Young Productions.com.

Public pages on Facebook are in the Public Domain.

Why is this significant?

If the New York Times had reported the story of a troubled actor from a family of child-rescuers, whose father was the president of an anti child abuse organization, there would be no issue. If they had reported it as the story of a troubled actor whose father works in law enforcement and who also owns and operates a film production company which makes films about children, there still might be no issue.

It’s impossible to prove from that Edgar Madison Welch was just an actor, paid to play the “pizzagate shooter role” in a piece of “news-theater”. Because of this uncovered information, it is also impossible to disprove.

What is real news and what is “fake news”?

Formally, the term “fake news” in popular language, as a descriptor- was not in use until recently. Researchers, suspicious of mainstream media by this time, wondered if the term “fake news” was manufactured and pumped out into “bogus” articles specifically in response to pizzagate- in order to “popularly discredit” the allegations without an investigation. Google Trends appears to corroborate this notion and show a bump in “fake news” just ahead of “pizzagate” at the onset.

Researchers started to notice and track multiple waves of bots posting online in social media forums and added them to their “executive summaries” involving pizzagate itself:

In an ironic twist, online researchers who created the website Pizzagate.com have offered $50,000 to anyone who can debunk their evidence without using “fake news” -which they describe as being Buzzfeed or CNN:

ATTENTION: There is a $50,000 reward to anybody who can successfully debunk every point on Pizzagate is not fake news. If Pizzagate and Pedogate is fake news then do the work and collect your money. We are legally obligated to pay up, as rewards are considered to be unilateral contracts. Please provide citations that do not bounce back to unsourced articles (eg. fake news such as Buzzfeed or CNN).
