Episode description and notes

The speech was leaked by the event coordinator, who had access to the final draft while preparing the program. The coordinator sent it to a local reporter, hoping to draw attention to a disputed passage about the company's early history. The clues pointed to someone with both access and a reason to share it: the leaked copy included a wording change made only in the final draft, and the message reached the reporter before the printed programs were distributed. The leak wasn't caused by a mysterious outsider breaking into the event files. It came from someone inside the planning process. The case turns on a simple lesson: access can explain how information got out, but motive helps explain why. Did you identify the coordinator before the reveal?
