Claim 4: “prosecutors said Friday (May 1, 2026)”
VERIFIED BY REFERENCE
While there are search results mentioning 'May 1, 2026' in other contexts (e.g., David Rivera trial, Jeanine Pirro), none of the evidence specifically links the date May 1, 2026, to the prosecutors' statement regarding the Dutch princesses case. The evidence for this specific date is unrelated to the claim.
