Was Einstein A Genius?

Einstein was a patent clerk, who knew about the value of prior art. He was not a babe in the woods. When he published his Relativity work he failed to footnote or give credit to anyone like Del Pretto, Lorentz, Poincare and others who are really the minds that gave us Relativity.

Einstein impregnated his 13 yr old cousin, and their first child was born out of wedlock Albert left her for another woman and Mileva spent the rest of her life struggling to support herself and her children, including a psychotic son.
 

E=mc² = De Pretto Not Einstein

The equation E=mc², which has been forever linked to Einstein & his Theory of Relativity was not originally published by Einstein. This famous equation was first published by Olinto De Pretto, two years prior to Einstein's publishing of the equation. In 1903 De Pretto published his equation in the scientific magazine Atte and in 1904 it was republished by the Royal Science Institute of Veneto. Einstein's research was not published until 1905.

No one will ever know if Einstein passed De Pretto's equation off as his own, but evidence does suggest he may have done just that. Einstein was well versed in Italian and even lived in Northern Italy for a brief time. He was very familiar with the work of many Italian scientists an enjoyed studying their beliefs and theories and he most likely was familiar with both of the magazines that published De Pretto's equation. With all that said, you can make your own conclusions, theories and hypotheses as to who really is the man that conjured the formula E=mc². 6

Bartocci Calls Einstein A Fraud

Umberto Bartocci discovered that there were only three degrees of separation linking De Pretto to Einstein, leading Bartocci to conclude that Einstein plagiarized De Pretto's work
