I did read the entire thread (obviously not until after my initial approach, didn’t mean to pile on after you had already been asked...)
jjotto was commenting and appears to know something of this with no specifics, and henkster provided a nice link at #109, but without knowing the specifics of him and his firing or his case, I just don’t know.
Perhaps you are correct, the “Paper of Record” (known to us as “The Old Grey Whore”) may have put that in there to simply throw off Strzok’s pursuers.
No problem.
We are all so sick and tired of these evil people getting away with so much. May justice be served on them all.
