Am I the only one who noticed that there's no proof of this ever happening?

Did anyone actually check the Suffolk County site?
It seems the more one looks into this, the less true it becomes.

Good. At least someone noticed. I was sick of seeing all the other posts that were believing it blindly.

I already posted a HuffPost article that said that no one visited her, and I posted a link to the Suffolk County site which shows that the "press release" was fake. Of course the blogger claimed after she got called out that the "press" release was released to only her, even though it is not addressed to her in particular. Plus, the photoshop sucks as she used the wrong font and forgot to include the name of the person that gave it to her, probably since impersonating a police officer is illegal...

Firing it up
Noticed, The police department answers they have to answer a formal complain which is treated as must-dealt due to the infamous effects found from some publications. Normally, Regardless the nature, exposed material is normally treated as archival purposes or being abadeoned.

The force works quick to stop rumors due to the prism effects and security issues. I think the operation is crazy in general but from company, it can be serious that which must be checked first.

Where is that?
It's on techcrunch.com
Click on the image to see the article.

The "source" for that image on that article leads to the page I already went to, which does not have the supposed press release.

For those of you wondering where we got the press release: I called the Suffolk County Police Department for a statement, and they emailed it to me.

So she called them, and they made a "press" release that for whatever reason only she can see? Sounds like bs to me. The font on her image isn't even the correct one, and it doesn't say who sent it to her. Plus, that source that I posted earlier (by Huffington Post) says that no one visited the house. I trust a reliable news source over some blogger who wants a ticket on the hype train.

This entire story sounds very unlikely.

Scary stuff. Makes me want to use a vpn for everything. Then I'd be trusting my privacy with them though...

Where is that? I'm on their site and the only press releases for august 1st are

"Body found in Blackhawk Marina"
"Copiague man arrested for having 69 license suspensions"
"man arrested for multiple burglaries"

http://apps.suffolkcountyny.gov/police/morepress.htm

And that image has the wrong font, and does not have the usual information that their press releases have, such as time and the author of the press release.

The story, from a more or less first-person point of view: https://medium.com/something-like-falling/2e7d13e54724

You know that records from his previous job were also included makes the thing really scary...

Maybe someone should do something about this..

The only source in that article is the family themselves...

Found other articles, all of which (even Huffington Post) only cite the woman herself. I could believe that someone talked to her, but I think that she's exaggerating a little.

Edit: Huffington Post says that no one actually visited her:

Quote
A FBI spokeswoman told The Huffington Post that the FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force was not involved in the matter and said the incident was handled by The Nassau County Police Department. A Nassau County Police spokesman told HuffPost he had no record of any officers visiting Catalono's home.


Also, Obama visited me the other day. That's how I know she's lying. Here's the source that proves that he came here:

This was his company reporting him. It wasn't the NSA spying on him but it will be soon.

Well the logical reaction is of course to outlaw pressure cookers.
