So this is about to get freaky...
David Brock and James Alefantis sold a house to Scott & Luz Driscoll for 2.25 million back in 2013: http://www.pressreader.com/usa/the-washington-post/20130613/282741994358283 (link dead already, anyone got an archive please) - further proof: https://image.isu.pub/130920155905-670c3c030807fd29e0eb188eb277ecb3/jpg/page_106.jpg (full original article: https://issuu.com/washingtonlife/docs/0913_digital/106))
Scott T. Driscoll passed away a year before Comet Ping Pong opens, and 8 years before he buys the property with his wife from James & David: http://www.masterdeathfile.pub-dat.org/Deceased/Index/153747065
[History -- Founding and Carole Greenwood -- Comet Ping Pong was originally founded by James Alefantis and Carole Greenwood in 2006. Source: Wikipedia]
Through a google search, we find Luz and Scott Driscoll are linked to this address: blockshopper.com/dc/washington-county-dc/washington-kalorama/property/25190282/2310-california-street-nw (page doesn't load for me)
Which is the same address David Brock and James Alefantis purchased back in 2007: http://washingtonlife.com/issues/march-2007/real-estate-news/index.php - "In Kalorama, 2310 California Street, N.W, now belongs to bestselling author David Brock and his partner, restaurateur James Alefantis."
With database searches of James Alefantis, it confirms this property as his as well as other properties listed under that name:
1.
6513 Brawner ST
Mc Lean, VA 22101
2.
2310 California ST NW
Washington, DC 20008-1637
3.
1536 Swann ST NW

4.

Perhaps he was found out and recruited? Thinly plausible.

This thought has occurred to me too. The fact that we KNOW government agencies use multiple honeypots, and wasn't there a story about there being a type of audit of these cp trap websites and ended up being like 3x more sites than there should have been? Thus bringing up the questions of who is taking it upon themselves to gather cp, construct a cp website and not mention it to their higher-ups or neglect to technically register it properly with the branch or division they work for. i.e.; most likely for their own personal pleasure ...or even business? idk if they could get away with that but who's to say?
I mean, if any of the honeypot sites are pay sites, what is that digital money transaction considered? Surely evidence, but it isn't like a bag of money with a $ on the side, and it isn't piles of stacked 100's, all sitting in the Evidence Room on a special shelf!
Ok, sorry for writing a bad, short novel here again but I do that sometimes, especially when I feel strongly about the subject and this subject is...something that is haunting me.
Anyway, I agree with your idea here. It's plausible as well as possible that when someone is observed over time that once they get busted the CIA or FBI 'offer' a deal of "you can go to fuck-me-in-the-ass-prison, OR you work for us now".
Happens with hackers now and then, don't see why it wouldn't apply here too.
