Meaningless. That is just the public face for the domain. The owners wouldn't have to put anything there, they were using it as a storage site that they probably access directly from ftp and have no need for a dedicated 'log-in' page.

Let's not get ahead of ourselves here. There is not a lot to establish the credibility of this story. While the timeline matches perfectly and this totally seems like the type of thing that was likely happening behind the scenes, without the hacker's identity known, there is always the...

The video and Ford's admission is the least of his worries. Smoking crack is the least awful thing he's done in this sordid affair.

Police chiefs don't put homicide detectives on routine drug surveillances.

"T said you might be able to help us again." what did the hacker do for Ford BEFORE this?

ok, here it is, now we know why Ford admitted today, because in a couple days things are gonna get much, much worse for him...

I think Jimmy T knows more than he's letting on...

If you haven't yet, please read the unredacted parts of the ITO. No one is going to care about the video when they find out about the other things Ford has been doing. There is no way TPS went through this level of surveillance and expense for the sole purpose of busting a drug dealing driver...

That's pretty sad. The Star has mentioned the Gawker story many times IIRC, but I can understand how Gawker would be upset by having been given explicit credit. That said, the editor from Gawker doesn't seem to understand that the 'story' is about 100 times bigger than just the video. Getting...

What about framing the rally as an group intervention, "Save Ford from Himself" sort of thing?

If they have the wiretaps and the surveillance, then they had enough to arrest him. My gut feeling is that there is still something going on and that he is going to be arrested for something far bigger. That's the only explanation that I can come up with for why they didn't bust him for buying...

I was gonna post the same thing. The dude sure likes to wander into random forests and secluded areas to get high, I wouldn't be surprised if that's what he's doing right now.

Are the surveillance photos timestamped? If so, the media narrative should immediately turn to something like this: "Respect for the Taxpayer?!?!?! Mayor Ford was buying and using drugs, during work hours, and getting paid from YOUR taxes while he did it."

I bet you're right. As I mentioned awhile ago, I would be shocked if the video dealers went straight to the press. They would have tried to extort Ford first. Lisi probably got caught in the middle of it.

Interesting question. I do believe that Metroman, about a month or two ago, mentioned that the Siad video may not have been the only video of him engaging in illicit activities.

It's gonna be fun to go back through the Sun comments from this summer and read the Ford Nation denials of the existence of the video.

There's gotta be something bigger here. If the wiretaps reveal anything of interest, it would appear by all accounts that the police had everything they needed to make a bust at any of these meetings. So the question is why didn't they? Either they let this go on while they were developing a...

They just got the documents minutes ago. There are hundreds of pages. I'm sure that they're not going to put everything up on twitter immediately, they probably want to save some of the juicy details for when they go to press, or publish online.

Sooo... anyone else find it interesting that they have a special section in that graphic on 'Murder of Anthony Smith', then at the bottom of the page, where they highlight the detectives, they note that Schertzer worked on the the Anthony Smith case?

That story is hilarious on two levels. First, that Ford would attack one of the few journalists that has been backing him through the crack video saga, and second, that it took a personal incident for that worm Warmington to FINALLY realize that Ford is a bully. He was perfectly fine with Ford's...
