In early 2016 a wider circle of people started to explore strange pictures on his Instagram and of people, that were commenting on those and apparently connected to him. There were a lot of photos that do not raise suspicion, but strewn throughout were pictures with little children that many people said do have a certain innuendo when added up. Commercially-controlled media never asked him about the sum of these pictures, or showed them to a wider audience. The only picture that was discussed was that of his goddaughter on the Megan Kelly show (which was after the shootout in his restaurant)[3] - from then on the media started to speak of a "debunked conspiracy".
When asked in front of his restaurant by people, he explained the issue away, and said that people were sick to make such accusations.[4]
