Tate claims the device where authorities found the videos wasn't his, seized in 2014 from a shared apartment. Police searched it then, found nothing, closed the case. Now it's supposedly reopened. The source is hyping this as proof of guilt, but there's a real problem here: we don't have access to the actual evidence. Just headlines about allegations. The device story is worth examining on the merits, but so is the timing. A closed case gets reopened while extradition fights are underway. Whatever happened with Tate, the pattern of allegations without public evidence shaping opinion before trial is a genuine issue. Trial by media corrodes accountability for everyone.
