The question now is if this is a lead or a dead end. I have't seen anything that proves to me that she was indeed investigating the Clinton Foundation. She's still on my list but I couldn't find any proof. Please link me to sources.
Seeing that WaPo jumps on this so fast makes me believe that it was planted. Be careful what you spread as 'confirmed' just because someone tells you so!
Edit: For the record: I would LIKE to believe this to be a real lead, I just can't with what I see right now...
Here is the same image but with a name. That person is here on fb, and has Petersen as a friend. She is a real person that works in prostitution protection in Providence, Rhode Island - here is her twitter for reference. Also it seems she was close enough to know about the funeral services taking place, so take that for what you will.
Edit: this thread is the most comprehensive I've seen. I agree with the skepticism involving this story, the "proof" is second hand information unless someone can contact Petersen's friend Bella and ask for corroborating proof that she wrote this message to her.
What concerned me first was that the visibility icon which is on every post on FB is not visible in this screenshot (the globe for 'Public'), then I saw the 'Seen by 148'. This indicates that this was posted into a group and not on her profile (no visibility icon there by default).
AFAIK 'Seen by' is only visible to admins of the group, so an admin has taken the screenshot.
My youngest has birthday today so I can't continue right now but joining all groups where Bella is a member of: https://www.facebook.com/bella.robinson.100/groups and then searching those for the original post would add a lot of credibility!
Didn't you read the Wapo article? The Wapo confirmed the FB-post to be authentic. All they do is claim the sentences that explain the context, were out of context. LOL.
Well, that's a mistake they made in their fanaticism to write negatively about pizzagate.
The mediawhores obviously really are not that good and with some pressure and the need to improvise they make more and more mistakes.

I'm sorry, but this (https://archive.is/XV5t0/042b013fa55b3d36ad29c586a7981cde7f959c48.png)) isn't a reliable source to me. No name, no date, no link - anybody can make something like that up :/

Edit: 'Bella' posted this on January 5 (a day after the post in question): https://www.facebook.com/bella.robinson.100/posts/931741326915536 which is related to the topic

And we're going to take WaPo's word for it, when they lie about everything else and basically do no research before reporting?
