    “Brame said his office is waiting for the toxicology report to come back, which could take a little longer.

    "We’re going down every avenue, every aspect of all the information. “

    Could this be translated as: we are looking for any excuse to not label this what it really is 🤔

      There were comments that he went to Walmart right before being found dead. I mean, if he bought the rope… it might change this from lynching to suicide. 🤷‍♂️

        Potentially but it’s important that the case is fully investigated either way. If they’re transparent about everything it will help the misinformation wave that is already out there. The sheriff should not have said that it wasn’t a lynching outright they should’ve only said that it was under investigation and conclusions will be drawn based on the evidence.

          In a perfect world, yes but we don’t live in a perfect world. People’s herd or mob mentality makes it very difficult to stop the stampede once it’s started. Especially if they do have evidence that contradicts a lynching that they don’t want public at this time. Oof course this being the South, that is probably giving the cops too much credit.

          That’s all people want. “We are investigating the possibility. We are taking this seriously.”
