CIA and Mossad and pedo elite are running some kind of sex trafficking entrapment blackmail ring out of Puerto Rico and caribbean islands. They are going to frame me with a laptop planted by my ex gf who was a spy. They will torture me to death.— ☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️☀️ (@delete_shitcoin) October 28, 2022
Details of the incident. Not much is known about the incident. Condado is considered a dangerous beach with strong underwater currents. The media has repeatedly reported the deaths, but rescue teams have not yet been dispatched to the area.
According to Mushegian’s latest posts, intelligence services and elites have organized a child trafficking network in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean islands. The programmer said that they were going to frame him with a laptop planted by an ex-girlfriend who was allegedly a spy. Mushegian was confident that the CIA and Mossad would “torture me to death.”
In June 2021, a well-known bitcoin holder, Mircea Popescu, died in Costa Rica. He also, like Mushegian, drowned.
