Abstract:

Contrary to reports in the media, the crowd sourced investigation labeled by
some as “Pizzagate” did not begin with internet sleuths digging through the
WikiLeaks Podesta Files releases looking for pizza parlors and encoded language
discussing human trafficking. It began with the shocking discovery that Hillary
and Bill Clinton provided assistance to convicted child trafficker, Laura
Silsby(aka Laura Gayler), resulting in a reduced sentence for child trafficking.

Silsby was arrested at the Haitian border attempting to smuggle 33 children out
of Haiti without documentation. Her sentence and charges were reduced after an
intervention by Bill Clinton. In the aftermath of Silsby’s arrest, her
originally retained lawyer Jorge Puello was arrested in connection with an
international smuggling ring accused of trafficking women and minors from
Central America and Haiti. The revelation of this news in November was either
ignored by the Western media or attacked by Clinton controlled publications.

I. Hillary Clinton Intervened Politically on Behalf of Laura Silsby

Laura Silsby is the former director of The New Life Children’s Refuge. Emails
from her organization can be found in WikiLeaks’ Hillary Clinton Email Archive
discussing the NGO before her arrest. Silsby’s organization also appears in
Clinton’s emails, soliciting donations for their “ministry.” The Refuge was
founded by Silsby and Charisa Coulter, both attendees of the Central Valley
Baptist Church in Meridian, Idaho. Silsby was reported to have a history of bad
debts and unpaid wages.

Laura had claimed she planned to build an orphanage in the Dominican Republic,
but a State Department diplomatic cable revealed that authorities in the country
said she never submitted an application for this purpose. They instead located
to Haiti.

On January 29, 2010, Silsby was arrested with nine other American nationals
attempting to steal 33 children from the country, most of whom were not even
orphans and had families according to some reports. CNN reported on February 9,
2010 that this was not the first time Silsby had attempted to traffic children
out of Haiti. Haitian police acting on a tip had intercepted Silsby in an
earlier, separate attempt to remove 40 children out of the country. She was
turned back at the Haitian border. For a brief period, Haitian authorities were
considering adding a new kidnapping charge based on this evidence.



Hillary and Bill Clinton took an extraordinary interest in Silsby’s case from
the moment she was arrested and almost immediately stepped in on her behalf. The
Harvard Human Rights Journal stated that one of Bill Clinton’s first acts as
special envoy for the United Nations in Haiti “was to put out the fire of a
child abduction scandal involving American citizens.” On February 7th, 2010, The
Sunday Times reported that Bill Clinton had intervened to strike a deal with the
Haitian government, securing the release of all co-conspirators except for
Silsby. Prosecutors ultimately sought a six-month sentence in Silsby’s case,
reducing charges for conspiracy and child abduction to mere “arranging irregular
travel.” A shockingly light penalty given the circumstances of her arrest, which
would likely not have been possible but for the intervention of the Clintons in
Silsby’s case.

On February 9th, 2010 Hillary Clinton consulted with Counselor Cheryl Mills and
other attorneys in an email discussing the U.S. Government’s “options” regarding
the arrested Americans. The heavily redacted memo attached to that email does
not reveal what these “options” consisted of. However, the State Department’s
American Citizens Services is only authorized to offer lists of local,
English-speaking attorneys to Americans arrested or detained abroad. To go
beyond that authorization is a severe violation of protocol and is illegal.
Additional emails reveal that the State Department was concerning with making
statements on the Silsby scandal and preparing to assist Silsby’s
co-conspirators with their return to the United States, although this is
consistent with State Department protocol in these situations.

II. Silsby’s Lawyer and His Wife Were Both Arrested For Involvement in Human Sex
Trafficking of Minors and Women

On February 11th, the New York Times reported that Silsby’s original lawyer,
Jorge Puello, was suspected of leading an international human trafficking ring
involving women and minors. According the Harvard Human Rights Journal Puello
was ultimately arrested in an investigation being led by U.S. Immigration and
Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in
connection with the ring. He was wanted in the United States, El Salvador and
Costa Rica for his involvement with a network trafficking Central Americans and
Haitians.

At the time of his arrest, his wife was already imprisoned in El Salvador and
“faced charges of presumed sexual exploitation of minors and women.” Puello was
ultimately sentenced to three years in federal prison for “alien smuggling.”
Another surprisingly light sentence given the original charges he was sought
for. It it not known at this time whether or not Laura Silsby was associated
with Puello’s criminal enterprise.

III. The Daily Beast Engaged in an Illicit Cover Up Operation of the Above
Information

On November 3rd, 2016, this author made a post to Reddit containing preliminary
research and information on the above story. The post was made to the pro-Trump
subreddit r/the_donald due to the forum’s reputation as the only outlet on
Reddit where news was not being censored during the U.S. Presidential Election.
The same day, WikiLeaks tweeted a link to the Reddit post labeling it as a
“significant, if partisan, find.”



On November 4th, 2016 The Daily Beast wrote a non-factual and intentionally
misleading article covering the Clinton-Silsby scandal. They accused WikiLeaks
of publicizing a “Reddit conspiracy theory” which was “riddled with incorrect
information.” The author, Ben Collins neglected to do basic research on the
totality of the links presented in the post as evidence. Mr. Collins attacked
the policies of r/the_donald towards freedom of speech and accused the forum of
being racist without citing extensive or definitive proof. At no point did The
Daily Beast provide proof that the allegations were not true, and did not
disprove any of the evidence submitted. A link to an extensive study of the case
by the Harvard Human Rights Journal which clearly linked Bill Clinton to the
scandal was totally ignored. They similarly failed to acknowledge or address
emails published by WikiLeaks between Hillary Clinton and her legal counsel
which may potentially indicate that she violated State Department policy for the
treatment of U.S. citizens arrested or detained abroad.

The Daily Beast is a holding of American media conglomerate InterActiveCorp.
Chelsea Clinton, Vice President of the Clinton Foundation and daughter of
Hillary and Bill Clinton, sits on InterActiveCorp’s Board of Directors. The
proximity of the Clinton family to the organization responsible for oversight
and direction of The Daily Beast raises questions about the publication’s
journalistic independence and their commitment to factual and ethical reporting
on current events and topics of public interest. Given their slanderous and
incorrect reporting on the Clinton-Silsby scandal, it seems clear that they do
not hold these values in high regard.

Since her release from detention in Haiti, Laura Silsby has returned to Idaho.
In 2015, she married and took the last name Gayler. Silsby is currently employed
by software company AlertSense as their Vice President of Marketing. AlertSense
works with the Federal Government on FEMA’s Integrated Public Alert & Warning
System (IPAWS). One of IPAWS functions is to issue Amber Alerts during
kidnapping events.

All this tells me is that Jorge Puello and his wife are predatory pimps who are facing legal consequences. A woman named Silsby, arrested for trying to get kids out of the country, possibly for altruistic reasons, happened to have this guy for a lawyer. The Clinton's, formerly famous for killing kids in bombing raids in Yugoslavia, Libya, etc... stuck up for Silsby. Lots of bad guys here.

However, proceeding from there to Hillary being a cannibal who bathes in the bloom of young virgins, I don't know. I don't see the Clinton's as being anything more than trashy wealthy people who bombed and manipulated their way to power.
