The great thing about facts is that you can completely ignore them when they don't fit your pre-conceived agenda.
presense of facts that prove me right = irrefutable proof that I'm right. Can't argue with facts!
lack of facts that prove me right = I'm right, but the investigation failed and/or doesn't prove I'm wrong
presence of facts that prove me wrong = fake facts, biased or dishonest researchers/investigators
Basically, my feelings say that I'm right until I find evidence that I am right which makes me SUPER RIGHT and if I find evidence that I'm wrong...well, I can just explain why I'm still right and those "facts" are wrong.
Intuition can be a great tool to use unless your bias is so strong it screws up how you perceive facts and your ego is so big that nobody can tell you any differently.
