If not because of the hoax, then because as a gay man, he probably has all kinds of perversion on there which would get him in deep trouble with either the law, or the public if it were to find its way into the open.
Oh, no doubt. I wouldn't even be surprise if he had kiddie porn on it. But the police were only looking to confirm a phone call, which is minimally intrusive. Even a non-techie like me could do that.
Seems more likely that he used a hook-up app to meet someone when he supposedly was out just to get a sandwich (aren’t there delivery apps in Chicago?). Maybe two guys showed up and rolled him which would be embarrassing, so he decided to play the race and phobia cards which makes him a martyr and not a schnook.
Why can’t the police just check the manager’s phone and get the call records for both?
“”If not because of the hoax, then because as a gay man, he probably has all kinds of perversion on there which would get him in deep trouble with either the law, or the public if it were to find its way into the open.””
In today’s world? Doubtful. There isn’t anything that would drag down one of the “annointed” in the public eye or to law enforcement. Anything goes - isn’t that the country’s motto now?
But if he’s a committed gay, that stuff’s not perverse.
He’s stupid if he thinks the police can’t reconstruct his
cell phone usage, anyway.
You have nailed it !!!
This is exactly why !!
