Investigation
The Execution Layer: Darren Indyke Across Four Technology Deals
Four source-locked deal paths separate recurring legal/bank execution from investment selection—and one never-funded deal provides the negative control.

Investigation
The HFA Proposal in Barak's Archive
A July 2015 Cycurity election-influence proposal sits beside a documented Barak investment-diligence trail. The archive does not show a campaign deployment or a completed Barak investment.
Investigation

Evidence brief
The NG911 Email: Planned FCC Meetings, No Proven Access Chain

Evidence brief
Levitection: The Signed Term Sheet That Never Closed
A 2016 financing reached signed-term-sheet stage, then stopped: Epstein declined and no funded closing is recovered.
Evidence brief
Reporty’s $1M March 2015 Funding: Proven Cash, Incomplete Holder Chain

Three Southern Financial subscriptions resolve through Kyara II, III and IV into three operating technology companies.
Evidence brief
