Olive skin has been whitewashed already.

What did you mean by that? This is not a good time for archness, obscure or learned references, or labored metaphors. Please restate.

WHITEWASHED:

-- To conceal or gloss over

-- To make white; to give a fair external appearance to

The suspect has been ID'ed as an olive-skinned or hispanic appearance over police radio, but the skin color gets whitewashed by the official and mainstream media sources so as to implicate white military male gun enthusiasts (presumed guilty) and not implicate Middle Eastern terrorists (presumed innocent).

I'll bet you a sixpack it's not ME Terrorists. They wouldn't leave the Tarot card with "I am God" scrawled upon it.

Of course, if you want to believe it's ME Terrorists and that the government is covering it up, I suppose you could believe that the card was never actually dropped by the shooter. I go for the simpler view.
