The guy does not have a distinctive appearance; he looks a lot like 100,000 other young, black bearded males, and in such extreme cold weather he would have been wearing a stocking cap or hoodie that would have made it even harder to identify him. And how many Trump voters even watch his show or know who he is?
he left the noose around his neck for 45 minutes?
Hmmm, sounds like someone got hurt having some rough sex.
Yes. If there’s no broken rib, he could easily have done it as part of a hoax. It’s odd that I heard the report with my own ears this afternoon but find nothing on the FNC web site. It would be terrible if this happened, but if there’s no attack seen on video and the hospital record does not mention a broken rib, it will seem fake. I believe he’d have had to have been x-rayed to diagnose a broken rib. According to what I heard, there is no broken rib documented in the record.
Also, if someone did this to you, wouldn’t you call 911 immediately rather than going to the hospital yourself, especially if you were on foot? I’d be afraid they would attack me more, considering the streets were deserted at that hour!
Time will tell, but I’m not sure why I heard the report on Fox stating the broken rib was not part of the medical record but cannot find it on their web site now.
My apologies to Jussie if this turns out to have happened, but it does seem an improbable set of facts.
"Citizens: If you were in the vicinity of the Subway on the XXth of January we would like you to come in for framing for questioning"
Remember that woman a few years ago she drew a swastika on her face with a knife, turned out to be a hoax, she did it to herself. If this guy wanted to make up a believable story, he would NOT have said that the perps said “This is maga country” really, Chicago is MAGA country, since when, Trump only got 12 percent of the vote in Chicago, you know what would happen if I(I live in SoCal) left my house wearing a maga hat, Id come home in a body bag
..... I think this Smollett guy has contrived a cover story to tell the cops. He was probably in the area attempting to score some chemical entertainment when the deal went bad.
That’s a possibility. I’m having trouble believing anybody, at 2:00 a.m., would know who this guy is.
Wow! I’ve seen lots of stories about fake hate crimes, but that one takes the cake! How could I miss it? In Massachusetts, days after Trump won, the state’s attorney general (very far left) set up a “hate crimes hot line.” A couple of weeks or so later, she held a press conference attended by “journalists” (LOL) from newspapers big and small. She announced that there had been 400 Trump-inspired hate crimes in the state since Trump’s election against women, Muslims, people of color, yada, yada, yada.
The “journalists” (LOL) ran with it and questioned nothing. I was shocked. She offered absolutely no proof. With video surveillance everywhere, I asked, why was not one of these 400 Trump-inspired hate crimes recorded and shown to the press at her presser? I pointed this out in a comment on my local paper, whose State House “journalist” (LOL) had written a “report,” and it was REMOVED.
Anyway, I called the Boston Herald and at least one other outlet urging them to get the raw data from the AG. No one did it except the incomparable Howie Carr. He had to wait for the AG to release it. She didn’t want to. When he finally got it out of her after writing a column or two about her withholding the info, it was AS EXPECTED, all BS. I don’t remember all the nonsense, but some calls to the hot line were just random comments not even involving hate crimes. The one I remember was someone gave someone the finger while he was driving. That’s IT. No mention of Trump, no bumper sticker for Trump, NOTHING. It seemed that they simply added up the number of calls and counted every one as a report of a Trump-inspired hate crime even though none of them were of any substance and there was NO EVIDENCE. I’d bet these people working for the Leftist nonprofits were told to call with BS just to bulk up the input. Of course, no evidence was ever presented and no one was prosecuted, because THERE WERE NO REAL TRUMP-INSPIRED HATE CRIMES!
Oddly, there were at least three fake Trump-inspired hate crimes during this time: One at Williams College and another at another Bay State college. These were announced as hoaxes by the college presidents/administrators. The third fake hate crime occurred in Malden, Mass., where a man made everything up and the police investigated and found it to be a hoax. They did not prosecute the SOB.
There is literally nobody in Chicago who would recognize this guy on a sidewalk at 2 AM unless it’s the president of his fan club or a family member. Which I suspect would be the same person.
At any rate, imagine wearing a "F**K BARACK" t-shirt on your social media pages and then getting your ass kicked by a bunch of black dudes. What do you suppose the media response would be? How much effort do you think the cops would put in to finding your attackers?
I don't believe this guy's story for even a moment but even if it were true, I don't think I'd care.
These guys keep going with, "F**K YOU!!! F**K YOUR PRESIDENT!!!' and eventually someone's gonna punch them in the face.
I once cracked a rib when I fell while running. I really wiped out, it must have been hilarious to watch. They scanned me and saw the crack, and then said "just take it easy, don't exert yourself, and here's the bill for the scan".
Next time I cracked a rib (slipped a false rib... very painful) I remembered how they did absolutely nothing after confirming the injury, so I just sucked it up and let it heal.
Two points here:
1) maybe he slipped on some ice and made up an awesome story for free publicity
2) and/or when he did injure a rib, he didn't wimp out about it.
I thought I read that when police showed up, he hadn't even been to the ER yet and when they suggested it, he went to a hospital instead of whatever/where the cops mentioned. Well, that and still having a noose around his neck 40+ minutes later, that's kind of strange by anyone's standards: left, right, center, straight, gay, etc. Who does that?
I know right?
Seriously? You can take that off, you know.
This story is pathetic and all the people hoping or pretending to believe it are even more pathetic.
Well, how would he know he had a broken rib if no x-ray? The report I saw said the cops said it wasn’t in the medical record. What, if anything, did he tell the doctor about the rib? Time will tell. It’s strange that I heard this in a report on Shep’s show, but it’s not on the Fox web site or in Google.
I guess the bottom line is, when a story sounds like it could have been written on Law and Order SVU, odds are that its total BS..now supposedly this “actor” claims it was NOT a rope that was used but a clothesline, probably some erotic asphyxiation gone bad..and who would keep that crap around their neck for 45 minutes, who does that?
Its 5:30PM here on the West Coast and til yesterday I had never even heard of this guy or the show he plays on
Headline: Chicago Police Forced to find anyone in the 10 mile area that could be labeled as a Person of Interest.
TUCKER’S SHOW JUST HAD A REPORT SAYING THE POLICE CAN’T CONFIRM THAT HE HAD A BROKEN RIB. The reporter is Matt Finn.
