2020 DEW Attack on Jay Maine Papermill
Androscoggin Mill – Insurance fraud? Motive to sell, rebuild.
“Nothing short of miracle” – zero injuries.
Zero blast noise on nearby dash cam recording.
Zero shaking on nearby dash cam recording.
Amazingly violent appearance — possibly holographically enhanced? How could so little audio and visible shaking exist for such a massive blast?
Financial staple of the area.
Cleared the way for takeover and rebuild by outside corporation.
DEW Hallmarks
Nobody injured.
Immediacy of blast.
Insta-rusted steel.
Holes punched thru steel.
Wilted, warped steel girders.
White/grey mist / offgassing.
Overall generally appearance of rubble is that of melted implosion, not explosion.
Zionic Mass Media is unanimously lying, saying there was tremendous sound and ground shaking, when nearby dashcam video + audio proves there absolutely was nothing, the blast was literally silent, the ground did not shake at all and even suspended power wires showed barely any movement.
Absent Hallmarks
No initial bright flash blast.
Zero impact wave, zero shaking, even amongst the power wires.
ZERO EXPLOSION SOUND.
That explosion is surreal. It almost looks like CGI because of how clean it looked, like it was inserted into a still image.
Was quasi-crystal holography involved as it apparently was during 911 WTC?
The explosion is quite massive to have yielded, literally, ZERO SOUND OR SHAKING. I mean ZERO.
CUI BONO?
Here’s the quick, fact-checked arc:
- What ended the mill A pulp digester exploded on April 15, 2020 at Pixelle’s Androscoggin Mill in Jay. Remarkably, there were no injuries, but the blast crippled the pulp side. The mill limped on for a time, then Pixelle announced in September 2022 it would shut the site; production ended by March 9, 2023. (Lewiston Sun Journal, Maine Public, Mainebiz)
- Who bought the property On Dec. 14, 2023, a joint venture—JGT2 Redevelopment LLC (New Mill Capital Holdings + Infinity Asset Solutions + Camjay LLC)—acquired roughly 1,000 acres, ~1.4M sq ft of buildings, and the adjacent cogen power plant. Maine DEP transferred the site’s environmental permits to JGT2. (PaperAge, pulpapernews.com, Midland Paper, Mainebiz, Maine)
- Who’s taking it over / doing what • Godfrey Forest (a/k/a Godfrey Wood Products) is slated to buy ~84 acres from JGT2 to build a 300,000-sf oriented strand board (OSB) mill; the town approved key local permits in Oct. 2024. (Mainebiz, Lewiston Sun Journal)
• Separately, part of the site is being spun to JayCo LLC to operate as a waste-handling/transfer facility within a statewide network (pending permit transfers). (Lewiston Sun Journal) - Current rebuild status (as of August 2025) Demolition of old mill structures began in April 2025 to clear the footprint for the OSB plant. However, the OSB project’s timeline is in flux due to tariff-driven equipment and materials costs; Godfrey says construction is essentially paused pending clarity. Meanwhile, the JayCo waste facility is moving through permit transfers. (Kennebec Journal and Morning Sentinel, Lewiston Sun Journal, Maine Public, Bangor Daily News, WMTW)
