The FBI said a noose found in the team garage of NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace at the Talladega Superspeedway has been there since last year and he, therefore, is not a victim of a hate crime.
NASCAR, mentioning the FBI report, described the item as a "garage door pull rope fashioned like a noose."
"The FBI learned that garage number 4, where the noose was found, was assigned to Bubba Wallace last week," the agency said in a statement Tuesday. "The investigation also revealed evidence, including authentic video confirmed by NASCAR, that the noose found in garage number 4 was in that garage as early as October 2019. Although the noose is now known to have been in garage number 4 in 2019, nobody could have known Mr. Wallace would be assigned to garage number 4 last week."
Wallace had not publicly responded to the FBI's finding as of early Tuesday night. NASCAR said he never saw the noose.
NASCAR issued a statement regarding the FBI's decision saying, "We appreciate the FBI's quick and thorough investigation and are thankful to learn that this was not an intentional, racist act against Bubba."
"We remain steadfast in our commitment to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for all who love racing," NASCAR said.
Richard Petty Motorsports, which fields the No. 43 car driven by Wallace, issued a statement saying one of its employees "discovered a rope tied in the fashion of a noose in the garage stall" assigned to Wallace.
The Petty employees followed protocol and notified NASCAR, said the statement.
"No member of Richard Petty Motorsports, nor Wallace had any involvement with the presence of the rope," the statement said.
#BubbaWallace #CNN #News
Now who’s questioning the FBI. CNN isn’t that like the pot calling the kettle black. Any one that is even remotely followed NASCAR knows that drama seems to follow Bubba. Watson around. It didn’t smell right from the start those garage areas are to well patrolled by the team’s NASCAR and security for that kind of thin to be done to a specific driver.
It was a noose PERIODT!
Look at the disappointment on Anderson’s face … hilarious
And he had his favorite butt plug in to celebrate, now he looks so sad.
Watching AC eat crow is actually pretty funny👍🏼
🙁
^ that’s his face. lol
For answers watch (Youtube it) – Manipulating America: The Chinese Communist Playbook
Why would he be disappointed? You sound insane.
CNN is going to flip this. And say “it was worth it!”
OK, now. Can we hold Bubba accountable for unsportsmanship?
Of course not, he’s black and this is woke 2020! He’s a HERO!💯🤮
A white man found the noose. Bubba never seen it.
He had nothing to do with it
@American Pride whatever you say boomer.
@writer’s block
No, but he picked up the ball and ran with it!
FBI finds a noose in every Nascar garage. This systemic racism is worse than I thought.
Wait till you hear about nascars homophobic toilets..😄
Great! Now I’m simply terrified of the clothesline in the backyard!
For answers watch (Youtube it) – Manipulating America: The Chinese Communist Playbook
@citizenxgen hahahahahaha LMAO
I wonder what black people think when they see white sheets hanging from clothesline. I’m guessing they think the KKK lives in that house.
Are they disappointed that a hate crime actually did not occur??
yes they are
@Alex Zagami and how exactly could one prove what CNN wants? It’s speculation, well founded speculation though, since they have quite the reputation for just running with speculative news when it suits their narrative, like how everything is racist and America sucks, sucks so bad that people have to fake hate crimes to get fame and attention, through the pipeline of leftist hack media like CNN. But you know all of this. You’re just being a pretentious tool and saying “ney ney ney ney, you can’t prove it!!!”.
so a noose isn’t a hate crime? according to bill barr> hahahaa
EternalFame I just watched that 15 minute video year that’s 100% proof of cnn wanting to make up hate crimes
Alex Zagami go watch the 15 minute video EternalFame sent you if you want proof
Handerson Pooper looks so disappointed!!! Looks like Juicy has a copycat twin!!😂😂
It was a slip knot rope to tie to the garage door to help pull it down. All the garages do it. This was all a jump to a conclusion BS allegation.
Bullshit
15 FBI agents how incompetent are these guys. They would not send that many to a serial murder scene if there were 100 white bodies found.
Guy Richardson I’m sure they sent more agents to investigate the murder of a 3 year old in Chicago. Oh….wait.😢
You’re an utter moron aren’t you?
When it wasn’t even a noose knot
It was a noose!
Only a moron would think that this rope was anything other than a pull rope for the freakin door its attached to. This was for attention. Nothing more. Pure attention grab. Shameful
Don’t y’all look like fools
I’m just glad CNN covered this. Figured they can’t talk about the children killed in Chicago but this door pull is huge news! Priorities. Am I right?
You’re right.
They reported on that too. They report on stuff 24/7.
@Danielle Luzzi
Not really
Or the 120 thousand dead Americans…or the EU banning flights from the USA….while the dumbass President host an indoor rally.
I’ve never seen Anderson Coopers so sad and disappointed before. The way he stutters, 2:03 trying to be like ” you sure it wasn’t a hate crime?”
Lol! True
Why does it seem like everyone on this show is so down that it wasn’t a hate crime? Lol
Jason Koster you mean Marxism or Trump tiny hat boy
Jason Koster I believe your suffering from TDS check with your local doctor for your prescription👍
Because it destroys their “America is racist” BS narritive.
Jason Koster. No one will take you serious if you can’t spell BOY but hey that the democratic run schools for you.
@Mike Ock Bubba saw it Stupid!
15 agents? How many agents is it gonna take to figure out CNN is fake news?
Less than it takes to find out FOX is fake, they outright refuse to legally call themselves news since they wouldn’t be able to lie the way they do otherwise.
This noose was used in Jeffrey Epstein homicide and had to make a fast get away !!!
😄😄😄😄
Fucking gold
I have never seen “reporters” so upset about NOT finding a hate crime. CNN is a joke.
What says they are upset who says this?
I would argue they were way more upset about jussie smollet
HardRockMiner exactly
You’re a joke. Grow up.
@[Hashknight Gaming] is that you fredo?😄
CNN is so disappointed that another one of their hoaxes was found out. Defund CNN.
CNN wanted this to be a hate crime SO BAD just like the Juicy Smollette’ incident.🤣
