Maybe he went mental or something. Looking forward to finding put the whole story - essentially the why.

If this guy did indeed pay these 2?
At no point did he think there was the slightest chance that this might lead to career suicide? At no point did he realize that this scheme might just backfire? Did this guy now catapult himself in to the top 10 of the "Dumbest Human Beings Walking Planet Earth" ?
Take me piece by piece.....

The police questioned the 2, and yes they were released. Now they are investigating the whole incident as a hoax.
WTF was this nitwit thinking? What was he attempting to prove? How was this stunt going to benefit him?
Unreal

Maybe he's mentally ill or suffering from a nervous breakdown or something.

This guy should be thrown in jail.0 -
This guy pisses me off so much. So many really awful things happening to people of color or people of the LBGT(I honestly forget all the other letters currently) community. And to give any indication to the idiots that are frightened and scared of change in this area that these terrible things might be orchestrated and fake....awful.
And to the 2 idiots that agreed to it...nice work asshats.hippiemom = goodness0 -
I thought it was odd when he initially refused to turn over his phone to police so that they could check the timing of the phone call he said he was on at the time of the attack.
That being said....I haven't seen any major news source report what the link is reporting. I hope it is jumping to a conclusion because he is denying it was a set up and if it was a set up it is going to be pretty obvious.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)

I'm not ready to believe "sources within". I'll believe an official Chicago PD statement. Not saying he didn't do it himself....just not ready to believe the hype over the "victim" yet.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)
