"Yet, that piece of rope could have come from a coil that had been sitting in his, or a friends, back room for years."

True. I have a couple rolls of rope/cord in my garage that have been there for years, and which were partially used for various gardening purposes. But I'm not sure if an urban apartment dweller would have much use for rope.

If he did have rope, he'd have ditched it by now, but its absence would be significant if they could prove he had recently purchased the kind of rope that was used in the alleged attack.

Things are delayed because Hillary! is helping him wipe his phone records.

You know, like with a cloth? *SNORT*

Absolutely, if video would show that he recently bought some of the exact same type of rope, his story disintegrates even more than it already has. And possibly opens him to criminal false reporting charges.

This clown is such a transparent lier that I am surprised that CNN or the NYT have not offered him a job.

He fits all criteria required to be an MSM favorite; incompetent, rather strange, and is as familiar with the truth as Al Gore is with science.

Hard to believe that there was no burning cross.

CSI would have run trace DNA tests on that rope and made an arrest by now.

A tremendous waste of police resources for a flippin’ HOAX.

After nearly two weeks of investigating, the Wall Street Journal reported Friday, the Chicago PD "has gathered little traction in finding the perpetrators."

You cannot find someone who does not exist.

They should combine this investigation with looking for OJ’s real killers. And the Loch Ness Monster.

FTA: ...rope still hanging around Smollett’s neck
Maybe Smollett was making a fashion statement?
