Earlier this week, Florida reporter Jay O’Brien urged people to “stop paying attention” to faux whistleblower Rebekah Jones:
The thing about the Rebekah Jones saga: there’s no evidence to support what she’s claimed. Simply none and we’ve all looked.
But, that won’t stop people on Twitter from taking her at her word.
So, this will never truly be over until people just stop paying attention.

O’Brien understood what precious few in the mainstream media did: that Rebekah Jones is a pathological liar and grifter.
Below are a few responses re this story that I thought I’d share here so I don’t have to retype them to others who comment.

If you haven’t already read Charles C.W. Cooke’s thorough and brutal takedown of Jones, rectify that immediately.
And then take a look at this:
We have caught Rebekah Jones in the most direct lie that she has ever told.
12/24/2020 "The woman who told me to delete cases and deaths is now blaming DOCTORS for the death backlog."

Well, tonight she has admitted one of her extremely serious claims isn’t true by stating it never happened.
So everyone can stop looking for evidence of that now.

Rebekah Jones did in fact delete both tweets this morning.

Should be lit.

Update:
Tweeter @MaxNordau has been working diligently to expose Rebekah Jones’ fraud from the get-go, and he’s been targeted by Jones as a result.
But now, he’s been nothing if not thoroughly vindicated:
And let's not forget, from 6/23/2020:
"I have multiple sources at DOH who have just told me they have been instructed this week to change the numbers and begin slowly deleting deaths and cases"
"I’ve independently verified they’ve deleted at least 1200 cases in the last week." pic.twitter.com/94OTBADUee

What is Rebekah Jones doing here?
Changing her story, yet again.
Charles Cooke exposed that she never actually had access to Merlin, so her allegation is impossible.
So now she pretends that she never made the allegation.
But the internet never forgets.

"On the day @HealthyFla's Dept. Sec. Roberson asked me to change numbers and delete records to present a rosier picture of Florida's pandemic than reality, my DOH dashboard hit 100 million views.
I didn't think my new dashboard would ever reach that.
Just hit 150 million." pic.twitter.com/CuQAWGKsA7

"Jones claimed in the interview that the state is continuing to under report both coronavirus-related hospitalizations and deaths and allegedly going to far as to delete some deaths from their tracker."https://t.co/0rTNctiH9I

I hope everybody realizes what happened here: Rebekah Jones spent a week watching the entire world find out that she never had access to Merlin, and therefore, her story is impossible.
So the only way out was to pretend that she never told the story in the first place.
But… pic.twitter.com/IzCQjhpXA1

This tweet nicely sums up the predicament that Rebekah Jones currently finds herself in:
Once Charles Cooke reported that Rebekah Jones never had the ability to edit death data, she had 3 options:
1. Continue claiming that she did
2. Pretend that she never said that
3. Admit the truthShe tried doing #1 for a week. Last night, she switched to #2.
It's time for #3. pic.twitter.com/SmsjEhYru5
— Max (@MaxNordau) May 21, 2021
We’re not sure she’s capable of #3, but she should probably make the effort anyway.
