About Unclessify

Independent Magazine of Investigation & Declassification • Founded by Graziano Costantino

Unclessify is neither a news aggregator nor a third-party republisher. It is an independent publication that works on institutional and declassified records — declassified documents, anti-fraud audits, parliamentary reports and filed court rulings — and publishes for each one an editorial analysis anchored to the source, in Italian and English.

Editorial Authority & Direction

Founder, Editor-in-Chief, and Lead Investigator. Specialist in OSINT inquiries, comparative declassified document analysis, and documentary intelligence.

The Unclessify Investigative Method

Unlike traditional newsrooms dependent on press releases or wire syndication, our desk enforces a scientific analytical protocol codified into four stages:

01Standard Unclessify

Direct Primary Docket Acquisition

We directly access official dockets: DIA anti-mafia filings, Pentagon & CIA FOIA records, OLAF audits, parliamentary hearing minutes, and court rulings, each linked to the original record. No article originates from third-party summaries.

02Standard Unclessify

Rigorous Fact Grounding

All numerical data, transactions, corporate entities, and named subjects in our dossiers must be firmly anchored to the analyzed primary records. Non-corroborated assertions are discarded prior to publishing.

03Standard Unclessify

Two verification levels, stated on the page

Every page states the level it has reached: documented, when the source record and the facts are registered and checkable by the reader; corroborated, when at least two independent issuers, besides the record, also confirm it. Without corroboration, the page says so.

04Standard Unclessify

The record and the analysis stay separate

A page shows the source record, with a link to the original, and separately the analysis built around it. An investigation requires more than one record: with a single record we publish an analysis of that record, not an investigation.

Using our content: research, study and education

Each page names the source record, with a link to the original, and the facts checked in the text. Our analyses can be a starting point for legal, archival and historical research and for teaching; they are not legal advice and do not replace the original record, which remains the source to cite.
