About this record
Verified findings have passed evidence review and stay published only while their reviewed evidence matches what currently exists. A finding is either a verified fact or a causal attribution — a reviewed judgement that one thing contributed to another, published with the attribution strength it earned. The two are not interchangeable.
Everything else on this page is a recorded database entry: ownership, classification, and relationship rows carried over from research and import work. A record existing is not the same as a fact being checked. Imported records were migrated from Death by PE’s earlier database; record origin is separate from verification.
