Poincaré (1900; according to Brown, 1967) and to Olinto De Pretto (1904)
before Einstein. Since Einstein never correctly derived E = mc2 (Ives,
1952), there appears nothing to connect the equation with anything
original by Einstein."
The sources are detailed in the papers quoted above.
Of course you won't touch them because they are works of "Crackpots" :-)

E=mc2 is not the correct form of the equation, and quoting it as such completely misses the point of Einstein's paper. Come back when you can find a source who understands that

As a sidenote: how is science advanced by discrediting Einstein? It won't produce any new inventions. I can only think of one possible reason for working so hard at it, and it's not a very creditable reason

On the other hand, science has been substantially advanced
by failed attempts to discredit Einstein (every experiment
which has tested special and general relativity has failed
to discredit Einstein, thereby giving greater confidence in
the use of his theory).
