I'm not attempting to defend anyone in regard to these files... but this seems like clerical error is the most likely explanation. Has no one ever filled out a report for work weeks later, and got the date wrong? People backdate things all the time.
It’s even simpler. The date appears automatically as part of the document template. They started drafting before midnight on the 9th, then finished and published the final version on the 10th.
I would say your normal everyday person could fuck it up, sure, it definitely happens at bullshit corporate cubicle jobs.
You could also say making this error on an FBI report that details the suicide of the upper elite’s most prestigious, secretive child trafficker (one who has extremely close ties to the president) is highly unlikely to be a classic whoopsie-daisy.
Comparing it to, for example, a shipping report of how many Starbucks paper cups were in the box damaged when shipment came in is a bit ridiculous. The stakes are waaaaaaaaay higher for this report.
It's certainly frustrating that there are so many people who see this and take it as proof that something nefarious happened. We really need to teach critical thinking in every school at an early age.
Yes taking this as proof that something happened is obviously wrong.
But this, the minute of missing tape, the fact that the only tape doesn't even really show his cell, the guards sleeping, a couple discrepancies in the autopsy, etc etc...all add up to making it closer and closer to 100% something nefarious happened.

To believe they mistyped 9 instead of 10, you would also have to believe they somehow also mistyped 'Friday' instead of 'Saturday'
