Oh yes, they should definitely be putting the investigative screws to the manager... and the alleged “witness” to non-existent white rednecks.
I wouldn’t assume the manager was in on it, although that’s obviously a possibility. But why would Jussie need to stage the crime over the phone to the manager, unless the manager was to be fooled into testifying to the police about the (hoax) crime??
If Jussie started out doing the hoax/threat letter a week before, he was most likely operating alone at that point (it doesn’t take more than one person to concoct such a hoax letter). I suppose the manager is probably about as demented as Jussie (he does “represent” Jussie, after all), but I wouldn’t assume the manager was in on it all. It could be that Jussie was “using” the manager to provide seemingly independent witness testimony.
Anyway, the whole thing was so fishy from the beginning. And why would Jussie have been on the phone with his manager at 2 am just as an “attack” occurred?? The Chicago PD probably found it all very fishy the moment they started to probe into it a bit.
interesting....It hinges on the phone records.
manager said he heard ‘MAGA Country’ on Phone.
If the call was never made, both are toast.
