After publishing his findings, Giraud began to receive a plethora of theories and responses from across human space. While he was meeting with Ray Kurzig regarding his investigation, Petra Janecek stormed Benjamin's apartment, furious about him recording their conversation on Earth and releasing the recording to the public. Ray and Petra eventually left, intending to distance themselves from the entire matter. However, one of Giraud's contacts, conspiracy theorist [[Mshak Moradi]], revealed that someone nicknamed "FERO" was about to get into contact with him.<ref name="htt6">'''[[Hunt the Truth]]''' ''Episode 06: BOXING STORY''</ref>

Three weeks later, FERO hadn't contacted him, and Giraud failed to communicate with Moradi. Later, Giraud met with Kurzig at a bar; Kurzig had found out about the truth of Jacob Walker, that he was an actor and the only soldier not retired nor discharged. After returning home, Giraud contacted Petrosky and the two had a conversation about ONI which later led into the shadows of the SPARTAN-II program. Petrosky revealed what he had heard; how the 6-year old candidates were kidnapped and replaced with clones, then being [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures|biolgicially augmented]]. When Giraud asked about how ONI would react, Petrosky simply told him he didn't own them anything. Shocked from what Petrosky had told him, Giraud hung up and sat in shock at ONI's lack of humanity. Later in the night, FERO finally contacted him. FERO informed him about the anomalies Mshak had told him before. Afterwards, FERO informed him about 'friendly ears' within the UEG; there was an upcoming commitee between UEG senators and superior officers of ONI. She kept telling him that Giraud needed a headline, to start 'a slow burn' that would be ignited into a 'fire' by Giraud's exposure of the truth behind the SPARTAN-II program.<ref name="htt8">'''[[Hunt the Truth]]''' ''Episode 07: WHO's LISTENING''</ref>

At the end of his investigation, after discovering supposedly incontrovertible proof of ONI's atrocities from a data terminal on [[Bliss]], Giraud arranged to break his story to the public on [[Charles Kesler]]'s talk show on [[ECB]]. However, it soon became apparent that ONI had used Giraud as a pawn to discredit the prevailing rumors concerning the SPARTAN-II program. The authenticity of all of his sources was supposedly disproved, casting his story as little more than the ramblings of a conspiracy theorist. In the end Giraud's feed was cut, with his ultimate fate unknown. However, Petra Janecek took over Giraud's investigation some time afterward, vowing not to make the same mistakes as he had.<ref name="htt13">'''Hunt the Truth''' ''Episode 13: IN THE BAG''</ref>
