''Accused parties may also comment/discuss in this section below. See Defending yourself against claims.'' This is clearly Daniel D. Reitberg trying to remove himself and his association with Escobar Inc, which should be presented as he was the Founder of the reincorporated company. After pulling off what appears to be scams, he is trying to create sockpuppet accounts to remove data concerning himself and Escobar Inc.Verbatimusia (talk) 18:24, 19 May 2020 (UTC)

Yet another single-purpose sockpuppet trying to destroy evidence on Escobar Inc article. Appears that Daniel D. Reitberg is creating 6 or 7 accounts now to try to remove himself from the articles. These users have already been blocked: Blusocksblu, Mindermind98, WowWashington, Smokapotamus, Verbatimusia, Krimlopio Weedthine (talk) 12:06, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

 * Shouldn't this be moved to Sockpuppet investigations/WowWashington? Or am I missing something. Sam-2727 (talk) 14:48, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I suppose I am. That makes sense. Sam-2727 (talk) 15:17, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
 * I agree, very bizarre., I also know that there is a subreddit discussing this article that might be where Schmegsupreme is coming from, if checkuser evidence indicates an unlikely connection. Sam-2727 (talk) 01:08, 23 May 2020 (UTC)

 * - A continuation of Sockpuppet investigations/WowWashington reported by a sock of Sockpuppet investigations/Verbatimusia. Please confirm. Cabayi (talk) 14:42, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
 * , you're discounting the possibility that CU may exonerate Schmegsupreme. It doesn't hurt to wait for an answer before moving the case. Cabayi (talk) 15:02, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

 * What a bizarre case of a group of socks edit warring against another group of socks and even starting SPIs against each other. From a technical perspective, Blusocksblu and Smokapotamus are ✅ to each other, but Schmegsupreme is to them (though still possible to some extent). I would say the WowWashington account is also  to this group; they are using a similar device configuration to Blusocksblu and Smokapotamus, so I can also understand a "possible" result, but they are located in a different geographical region (one that Blusocksblu would have needed to fly to). All of these accounts are ❌ to the group at Sockpuppet investigations/Verbatimusia. All in all, a murky case. CU is very bad at "exonerating" individuals—I'm afraid this will need to be decided primarily on behavior. Mz7 (talk) 18:47, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
 * . Blocked based on behavioral evidence. Despite the geolocation results, the behavioral similarities are strong enough to conclude that Schmegsupreme is related to the accounts listed in Sockpuppet investigations/WowWashington/Archive. —  Newslinger   talk   05:58, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Would a clerk please move this case to Sockpuppet investigations/WowWashington? Thank you. —  Newslinger  talk   05:58, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Nothing more to do. Closing. Cabayi (talk) 12:53, 4 June 2020 (UTC)
