THREAD PART 1

From #NoahsArmy⚡️ For Those New To His Story

On Sunday 21st June, 14 year old Noah Donohoe left his home to meet his friends at Cave Hill Belfast to study for school. #RememberMy💙

If thread stops please press show replies

 Noah was on his black Apollo mountain bike, fully dressed, wearing a helmet and carrying a backpack containing his laptop and 2 books with his name on them. He also had his mobile phone with him.
On the 27th of June. Noah's naked body was sadly discovered 950m inside a storm drain, between access points. This storm drain was accessible through an area completely unfamiliar to him, behind houses at Northwood Road.
"Noah's body was found by specially trained police officers between two drain access points within a section of the tunnel running under the Translink access road," said Mr McCrisken."
https://t.co/SyJ38zRKdG
Noah's bike was also found near a house, behind a car, in the same area. It had been there for more than 24 hours before a member of public who lived in the street said she read reports of a missing child and checked the bike and phoned the police.
https://t.co/38nzctwVt8
Members of the public are confused as there were conflicting reports that Noah's belongings were said to be picked up on 2 separate days. Noah went missing on Sunday.
https://t.co/KKgo4odqwB
Some of Noah's clothes were found in the same street, where the last known cctv sighting of the teenager was seen, on Northwood Road. Among them, his helmet, hoodie and shoes. His jacket, underwear, shorts and t-shirt are still missing
A white van was searched in the area of the time of Noah's disappearance & sniffer dogs were brought in. There has never been any updates on this as far as the public are aware.
"There were also reports on Saturday in north Belfast that PSNI officers had sealed off a white van, which will be forensically examined as part of the investigation into Donahoe’s death."
https://t.co/KKgo4odqwB
Noah's laptop was taken by police from a man named Daryl Paul. This man did not hand in his laptop voluntarily. Noah's laptop was seized in a South Belfast hostel after Mr Paul instructed the police he had left it with a friend to mind. https://t.co/9A0Jddf2ke
It was reported that Mr Paul was a number of miles away from Ulster University (The Art College) at the time Noah's backpack was left there and he found it some time later. https://t.co/pdej1JxbB4
Centenary House is 0.5 miles away
"Recovering heroin addict Daryl Paul was sentenced to three months' ... Paul said: "I walked from Centenary House (a Salvation Army hostel) " https://t.co/0d77z1NmpU
Daryl Paul had tried selling Noah's laptop. An anonymous tip off told police he had Noah's backpack, it along with books, laptop and Noah's jacket (as mentioned in this article) https://t.co/tZxN4yehQC
Daryl Paul has stated he found Noah's backpack beside a wall under a pedestrian underpass on the grounds of Ulster University on the day Noah went missing. Article found in
@BelTel
Daryl Paul also claims another man was there that day and described him as acting suspicious near Noah's backpack. The man is described as having tattoos. Mr Paul states he told the police about this man on the day of his arrest. Article from
@BelTel
There are many cameras in and around the Ulster University area.
Noah's mobile phone was found in North Queen Street beside a children's play park.
At first it was put out by some news media, that Noah phoned 999 emergency services from his phone, but the police said this was "inaccurate"
https://t.co/DdjhIQhC3P
One of the last CCTV videos, show 14 year old Noah on York Road, fully dressed. The following videos show Noah naked on Northwood Road running and exhausted.
https://t.co/3xddfKIcOi
No cctv or eyewitnesses actually seen Noah removing his clothing between Skegoneill, Northwood Crescent and Northwood Road.
There was cctv footage handed in by a member of public who lived on Northwood Road of Noah cycling past her home naked, from the waist up https://t.co/NpXUrCe9En
There is also cctv footage of 14 year old Noah naked and running, exhausted between 2 houses at the top of Northwood Road. This was the final known sighting of young Noah. His Mother Fiona has seen this video

https://t.co/Rm1FOmZqcQ
At first, because a member of public had said she seen someone fitting the description of Noah fall of his bike (in North Queen Street/York Street junction), the police suggested that perhaps Noah may have suffered a concussion. https://t.co/LhAO1A3kLE
That this led him to become confused and take his clothes off. The coroner's report said that Noah had died of drowning. There was no mention of a concussion.
https://t.co/mcCOmcv2ke
Noah's Mother Fiona has seen cctv videos. She saw only brief moments of Noah's journey caught on camera, but has not yet seen the moments or hours before or after the videos were recorded. She has requested to see them in their entirety.

https://t.co/Zwk6V3mtnE
The last videos caught on cctv have caused a lot of confusion. As at first the police said Noah's last sighting was at 6:11pm, naked between 2 houses. They then changed the time, twice, and said they'd made a mistake and that the actual last sighting was 6:03pm
As to date, Noah's shorts, underwear, t-shirt and coat have not been recovered. There has also not been anyone come forward with either cctv or eyewitness to show that Noah removed his clothing.
At the time of Noah's disappearance there was a lot of online activity and eye witnesses who left comments on media and PSNI pages stating what they had saw. A majority of these comments vanished within days. There were screenshots taken at the time from public.
There is confusion of how the person who saw Noah fall, stated he had left his jacket as it fell on the ground, and that he got back up and got on his bike and continued cycling. His jacket was also mentioned in the anonymous tip off about Daryl Paul and the backpack.
Most of Noah's clothes are still missing. As his Mother Fiona witnessed first hand, the police stood on the street while Noah was missing and allowed bin collections to proceed on Northwood Rd, while both Noah and his clothes were missing.
https://t.co/qSSQ4taHit
The public are upset that the police were suggesting "No foul play" before an autopsy had ever taken place with Noah after the discovery of his body, 950m inside a storm drain, in an area he was completely unfamiliar with https://t.co/dSAAXGDO4m
Many news papers and media ran this story, suggesting that Noah had done all this because of a concussion. After the coroners report which didn't mention a concussion, there was no further additions to this or updates.

https://t.co/sU2gW8WJFV
In May 2020, a month before Noah's death, another boy around the same age as Noah was brutally attacked and robbed very near the same area Noah had vanished. He was also cycling and had his phone stolen and his bike. https://t.co/fDgRs1g4Xs
The storm drain that Noah was found in is believed to be unlocked. As Noah was said to be still inside and missing, someone was phoned and asked to put the lock back on, on the 24th June. Nobody knows who unlocked the storm drain in the first place https://t.co/Vlk7dfYfLN
January 2021

Noah's family and legal team ask for witnesses to come forward in a new line of enquiry that Noah had been assaulted in Belfast City Centre

PSNI received report Noah Donohoe "may have been assaulted", inquest hears https://t.co/1hVEuCQF7V
Feb 2021

The Police turn their attention to Storm Drain Safety

Police launch investigation into access to storm drain where teenager was found https://t.co/Nv9po6JUCV
An appeal is made to a member of public who may have images that surround the suspected assault on Noah in Belfast City Centre. The phone is of great importance to the family and they are pleading with the person who has it to come forward. https://t.co/EbzAjx6MP6
February 2021

Noah's Mother Fiona has made an appeal to premise holders in around Royal Avenue, especially around the side streets of the old Belfast Telegraph building that they forward their cctv to be examined for clues. https://t.co/mxg7iWiMty
Again there are many cameras and shops around this area.

CCTV although written over can be retrieved forensically.
Feb 2021

A person hands a phone in to police with important images to be examined. Story by @trishdevlin
Noah is said to have discarded his belongings, yet the public have not seen any cctv whatsoever of Noah doing this. Or of him discarding his backpack at Ulster University. If there is cctv of Daryl Paul picking up the backpack there must be cctv of it being left there.
Police said at that the start that there was a leaflet drop, yet there was no evidence of this https://t.co/zkLB63hBC2
I personally am unsure about the date/time of SARDA screenshot, but it is in response to a member of the public asking why search dogs were not brought into the area. Other links included to stories regarding the Search Teams
The community continue to support Fiona and the Donohoe family throughout this time. Not forgetting the thousands that took to the streets in a car convoy to show their solidarity with Fiona and her family

https://t.co/kY66CfjXc5
We hope and pray that Noah's brave and loving Mother Fiona and her beautiful loving and loyal family get the answers they need. We will always remember Noah💙 #RememberMyNoah💙 and do everything and anything we can to help xxx

NOW: 6 days after the insurrection, the FBI says it’s ready to prove a “quick” update.
Here goes with updates from FBI:
•160 cases files have been opened
•100,000 digital media tips have been received
•they FBI admits they had intelligence warning of an attack

•FBI says an arrest the night before the Capitol attack indicates they took action
•@AndyTriay has previously reported: FBI “disrupted” a number of individuals from traveling to DC. Which means they were urged not to come – or somehow stopped.

•FBI says there will be hundreds of criminal cases against suspects at the Capitol and prosecuting them could take months
•the acting D.C. U.S. attorney says most investigations were opened on misdemeanor charges but now the feds will indict those people on federal felonies

BREAKING: The acting U.S. Attorney in Washington D.C. says he’s ordered prosecutors to build cases to charge Americans who stormed the Capitol with sedition & conspiracy, if the evidence warrants charges against them depending on how they were involved.

NOW: Acting U.S. Attorney in D.C. says charges will also be brought against people who attacked members of the media.

Without jumping to conclusions, this is a strange coincident. Is someone trying to kill two birds with one stone?


If you don't get caught up in the noise of the media, you'll notice a few more things. The far-right Oath Keepers has been patrolling major cities with heavy weapons for weeks. They were present in numbers at the Capitol, but without weapons.


https://t.co/t7M1svIIMe


You find photos of the arrested vandals but strangely enough not of the one 70-year-old who allegedly had a truck full of weapons. And at least I couldn't find an image of that truck. But the old man was apparently very talkative to the police.


The most questionable aspect, however, is the FBI's search for a person who was apparently caught on a surveillance camera the previous night.
At that time, it was possible to predict a mass gathering, but not the riot.

A detention hearing is about to start in federal court in Arkansas in the case of Richard Barnett, the man photographed sitting in Nancy Pelosi's office (see: https://t.co/GAAENhkxf0). He's been in custody since his arrest

Prosecutors alleged Barnett was carrying a stun gun. He's charged with entering a restricted area w/ a weapon, violent entry/disorderly conduct, and theft. There isn't anything on the docket indicating what the govt/Barnett will be seeking as far as detention v. release


We're still waiting for the Richard Barnett detention hearing to start in Arkansas. Meanwhile, follow @o_ema for updates on initial appearances in DC federal court today for a few of the Capitol insurrection arrestees -->


Richard Barnett's detention hearing is underway in Arkansas — Judge Erin Wiedemann will decide if Barnett should stay behind bars. The first witness is FBI special agent Jonathan Willett, who was involved in the Capitol riot investigation

FBI agent walks the judge through surveillance videos that the agent says show Barnett walking in and out of Nancy Pelosi's office, with a "walking stick Taser" on his hip, as well as the widely disseminated photos of Barnett sitting in Pelosi's chair with his feet up

I'm all for discussing Navaly's personal politics, and disagree with him on much, but saying the free world shouldn't stand up for someone jailed and nearly murdered because he's not Bernie Gandhi Mandela is bullshit. He's risking his life fighting a mafia dictatorship.

Plus, Navaly's politics as we know them (he's never held office), not coincidentally, largely reflect mainstream Russia, which is far from liberal by Western standards. This is probably a more useful topic anyway, tbh, esp re Crimea.

He's ambitious, as was/is Khodorkovsky. He has positions (again, no formal platform) that would make him acceptable to Russians should he ever get an actual chance at power. That makes him less acceptable to Western liberals, but they're always hoping for a Yavlinsky, a Nemtsov.

Navalny and his org fight Putin and corruption. They advocate for free and fair elections, for a democratic Russia that is part of the civilized world. As for his being xenophobic and pro-annexation of Crimea, congratulations, you discovered that he's Russian.

(I've got quite a few far more liberal Russian friends who have a hard time saying Russia should ever give Crimea back. It's a real weak spot, one that Putin was very aware of and exploits effectively with propaganda.)

1/People I know on the Right tend to be obsessed with the idea of "crimethink", taboos, and the (supposedly) oppressive, omnipresent enforcement of liberal cultural norms.

Why?

My new theory: A lot of it is guilt.

2/It's true that in some circles - the media, universities, many big corporations - liberal norms *are* enforced to some degree, and the enforcement has probably gotten stronger in recent years.

But I don't think this explains all of the Right's obsession.

3/The stereotype is that people on the Right tend to be more threat-sensitive. That would help explain the perception that liberal norm-enforcers are lurking everywhere, ready to pounce and anathematize anyone who makes a misstep.

But I don't think that's all of it either.

4/And of course, it's always fun - whether you're on the Right or the Left, or playing a video game, or whatever - to style yourself as the brave iconoclastic rebel fighting against the oppressive forces of blah blah blah.

But I don't think this is all of it, either.

5/The reason I think it's more than these things is that even *in private*, people on the Right express their "crimethink" ideas very gingerly and hesitantly.

I get the sense that they're not just afraid of external censure, but have also internalized liberal norms.
