Technique: unfalsifiable claim, sourced only to the site itself
With the site's full landing page captured on September 27, 2026, these are the claims for which no independently checkable source exists. None are inherently implausible; the problem is that a reader cannot verify any of them without taking the site's word for it.
- The $1,091,930 Perkins Eastman contract for the Strategic Capital Master Plan, and the claim that its "Options Strategies" are being withheld from voters. The master-plan engagement is real; the dollar figure appears nowhere else.
- The 23-school utilization list. The site names its source — the district's 2024/2025 Facilities Condition Assessment — and prints school-by-school percentages, but that assessment is not posted publicly, so none of the numbers can be checked.
- "$35 million on schools that have since closed." Appears only on the site and in its author's own prior writing.
- The committee-composition claim that only 4 of the Capital Asset Advisory Committee's 12 current members served during the audited program, and that none "pushed for action" on the findings. No roster or minutes are cited.
- "$4.7 million of $6 million" in 2018 5A funds earmarked for CTE and STEM still unspent as of June 2020. A specific, checkable-sounding figure with no source attached.
- The Castro records claim — that "Jeffco's own records show it did not open a district-level investigation." Her conviction and sentence are documented. The records claim traces to a Jeffco Kids First open-records request, which quotes the district replying that it "did not conduct a district level investigation… and instead left it in the hands of law enforcement." That is an advocacy group's account of a records response, not an independent record, so we note it as attributed rather than confirmed.
- Records-request denials "in multiple other documented cases," including one involving "a principal named in a Title IX lawsuit." No case numbers or denial letters are shown.
- "Jeffco never completed the annual independent bond audit its own bond language required." Plausible, given the district's documented oversight failures on the companion 2018 measure (see what actually checks out), but no independent confirmation exists either way.
- The Common Sense Institute citation is real, but it is statewide, not Jeffco. The report exists — CSI's Dollars and Data 2026 (Erik Gamm, September 2026) — and it is not fabricated. But it is an analysis of Colorado's public schools as a whole. Its figures are statewide: average teacher salary of $74,909 in 2026, up 36.3% since 2019; total revenue up 48% since 2020. It does not contain the Jeffco-specific numbers the site places beside it — "teacher compensation rose 40%, revenue grew 22%, inflation rose 20%" over FY2022–FY2025. Those trace to the site's other listed source, its own "OpEd analysis," so a statewide report is cited alongside a Jeffco claim it does not actually make.
