If you want to know which side I am on, you can read my series exposing "insiders" and explaining the Glenn Beck whistleblower incident and cover-up. See my submissions list for all the details.

One problem I have with this story is that I did a lot of research into Brock's various organizations, and I find the original story unlikely on several counts.

1. It is very unlikely that Edgar Welch knew or knows James Alefantis. Why in God's name would Alefantis recruit a friend for this task? Welch will be spending something like four years in prison. His future job prospects are bad. If he's a crisis actor, it's likely that he has debts, or some terrible personal secret, that made him willing to take the fall for the Comet Pizza thing. (I realize that this means I'm agreeing with @Are_we_sure, but such is life. When he's right, he's right.)

2. We know with certainty that Brock siphons money illegally from Media Matters, to pay for a deliberate cover-up. We don't have any similar information about Correct The Record (which shut down on Dec 31, 2016), or ShareBlue. Both of those organizations were/are in any case smaller than MM, and funded in ways that make diverting money quite difficult.

3. If the operation wasn't funded through CTR or ShareBlue, then it is very unlikely that anyone in those organizations would know anything about Edgar Welch, or if they knew something, would talk about it where they could be overheard by an entry-level employee.

You have to consider the possibility that this entire story is deliberately crafted disinfo, to take attention away from the real backstory of Edgar Welch, and to provoke Voaters into harassing someone unconnected to Pizzagate. It's one thing to do research and share it here; it's another thing entirely to have dozens of people sending "Fuck You" messages to some woman with possible shady connections.
