In the Gettier case of deductive justification, what we have is a separation between the source of the justification and the truthmaker for the belief.
Gist of Idea

A Reaction
A very illuminating insight into the Gettier problem. As a fan of truthmakers, I'm wondering if this might quickly solve it.
