Big fish have deep pockets, and didn't want some info in Jussie's phone records to come to light at trial. Money makes the world go round, especially in Chicago.

Perhaps when an individual rises to a certain level of fame, fortune and power, their ego grows exponentially while their brain shrinks at an equal rate. lyndagracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13530605081989558341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-968059214758329257.post-67044601294560224982019-03-30T12:36:07.280-04:002019-03-30T12:36:07.280-04:00It's hard to believe that the media will not g...It's hard to believe that the media will not get to the bottom of what really happened behind closed doors. I don't buy the poisoned jury pool theory at all because that would apply to any high profile case.

It was painting the original poster as a victim of a threatening note pinned on his front door. I didn't comment but my thoughts went immediately to "This smells of BS..
