Dark secrets of Maui’s inferno: Power lines, conspiracies, and the hidden truth

As the inferno continues to ravage Hawaiian landscapes, rumors and conspiracy theories are blazing their way into mainstream consciousness. Was it a mere accident or an orchestrated disaster? Evidence, now emerging, suggests the latter. A video hinting at a power line malfunction, backed by a damning report from The Washington Post, has set the stage for a larger, more controversial narrative.

Electrical Malfunction Caught on Tape

Jennifer Pribble, associated with the Maui Bird Conservation Center, showcased footage of a suspicious flash illuminating the Hawaiian woods late at night. Initially dismissed, this footage now serves as crucial evidence as its timeline matches perfectly with a significant disruption in Hawaiian Electric‘s grid, as observed by Whisker Labs. Bob Marshall, spearheading Whisker Labs, found this incident to be a startling revelation, implying that utility grid faults might be the malevolent spark that caused the devastating Maui wildfires.

Social Media Buzz and Accusations

Compelling videos have flooded social media platforms. Notable among them is Shane Treu’s footage, spotlighted by The Associated Press, capturing the very moment a wooden power pole crumbled, releasing a deadly rain of sparks upon the dry grass beneath. This, coupled with Hawaiian Electric Co.’s questionable decisions, not turning off electricity despite looming threats, places them right under the magnifying glass of scrutiny.

State governor Josh Green paints a grim picture, forecasting a death toll much higher than reported. With recent figures placing the deceased at 106, this tragic event is already the deadliest US wildfire in over a hundred years. The overwhelming number of casualties has stretched Maui’s infrastructure to its limits, with makeshift mortuaries becoming an unfortunate necessity.
