Tito Mukhopadhyay is a profoundly autistic man whose mother, Soma Mukhopadhyay, since he was 11 years old in 2000, to the present, has presented him on the television programs BBC, CNN, PBS, Closer To Truth, and Good Morning America, and via other forms of media and literature, as being able to write-communicate and type-communicate not only normally, but at an advanced level, and on his own accord – that is, from an independent content of his mind – with the assistance of the Facilitated Communication method that she treats him with, which she refers to as the “Rapid Prompting Method”. In this article, I provide the intricate visual, auditory, and behavioral observations of the interactions of Tito Mukhopadhyay and Soma Mukhopadhyay that were overlooked, since 2000, by innumerable millions of people, including the large array of scientists and physicians who studied them. I concurrently adduce various novel concepts in order to characterize my observations. My observational analyses, and concurrent conceptualization, demonstrate the presence of what I refer to as “Factitious Heroism By Proxy”, and Factitious Heroism. I demonstrate that Soma Mukhopadhyay engages in a multitude of variations of novel, highly surreptitious, multifaceted Facilitated Communication fraud with Tito, which I refer to as “Factious Heroism By Proxy”, which is a novel conception, and novel diagnostic category, that I have formulated. “Factious Heroism” is discussed by Dr. Marc Feldman. Soma concurrently engages in Factitious Heroism with regard to how she publicly presents herself.
