Relevant excerpt / notes
Evidence is limited to the exchange visible in Media 7; it does not establish motive, a complete thread, or the absence of a response elsewhere. The supplied Facebook group/comment URL was inspected and resolves to a different group post and comment, so it is not recorded as this screenshot’s original URL. Correct original permalink remains unverified.
