Read the results
Read verified facts, inferences, contradictions, and gaps separately. Check the public links or evidence citations behind material conclusions, especially where sources disagree. A brief can identify useful next questions without resolving them all. Unavailable or access-restricted material may be absent, and a lack of discovered evidence should not be treated as proof that an event or relationship does not exist.
