Ok here is the scenario, strictly hypothetical of course.

Lets say that 20+ years ago a journalist was murdered in some country in Eastern Europe. Like... Hungary.

12 years ago, someone from your country made this documentary about some relatively obscure Hungarian.

Suddenly, the murder of this journalism leads to a trial against a suspected murderer.

You discover that the obscure person featured in the old documentary you watched is linked to the murderer, and that there is one piece of information in the documentary that could perhaps solve this hypophetical Hungarian murder. And you are pretty sure that no one else has noticed it, since only you and a few thousand more saw this documentary.

What would you do?

Post about it on a well-used and large piece of social media knowing that you have disclosed your name on said media previously, thus allowing discovery by the Police and increasing the chance that they will request/subpoena the release of any information held - email address, IP addresses etc?

secure book and film rights, then inform the newspapers.

Good idea tbh.

How about this plot:

a Hungarian man pretends to convert into some obscure Budapest religion. He joins a sect. He steals all of their money.

He then moves to the US, what he does there is a bit unknown but he meets another Hungarian, a sports journalist covering the 1984 Olympics.

After that, he moves to Israel, pretending to be orthodox jewish and convince one of the rabbis to start a diamond store. He then steals all the diamonds, worth 60 million dollars, and moves around the world while the Israeli diamond business is trying to chase him down.

He then moves back to Hungary and hooks up with the guy he met in Los Angeles. He cant swim, and actually he is afraid of water, but somehow he becomes the manager of the Hungarian 1992 Olympics swimming team, and they win a bunch of medals.

After the olympics, he disappears, taking all the money of the swimming team with him. The sports journalist he met in LA takes his place in the Hungarian swimming federation.

Then, he gets himself a very expensive Archbishop-costume, takes the boat to Sweden and lives in Malmö for a year while pretending to be sent from the Vatican. People lend him money, he pays back double. Until one day when he doesnt. He is gone, with all their money.

He returns to Hungary and gets arrested. But the police have problems. They can only interrogate him for one hour at a time, or they fear he will take control over them. They let him out and give him an apartment and a gun.

Hs friend, the sports journalist from LA who replaced him as boss of the swimming team, is now also some kind of media mogul. But another media mogul says: "this guy is shady, and he is shady together with the weird fraudster guy".

The rival media mogul gets killed. Not much happens for 22 years until some secret recordings creates a case against the friend (the LA sportsjournol-media-mogul-swimming-guy) of our main character (the diamond dealing Archbishop 1992 Olympics swimming coach) and finds some, but perhaps not enough, evidence that they murdered the murdered guy (the other media mogul).

Well, the "me" part really comes in after the plot:

Some random Swedish guy watches this semi-obscure documentary on the main guy and discovers that there is a witness in the documentary that helps to prove one of the things that everyone knows but is difficult to prove.

Played by Timothy Dalton obviously.

Use said information for extortion purposes, but don't get greedy, always remember that they're a killer.
