Hoaxes: Not Just For "The Marginalized" Anymore

It's been all over the Internet how the poor police officer in Junction City, Kansas, was victimized by some, unknown and nameless McDonald's worker, allegedly writing a derogatory comment on a coffee receipt.

Except, it didn't happen. Video, right? The officer's Smolletting was non-propitiously exposed.  Doh!! All over the Internet, giving rise to nationwide reaction, but it didn't happen.

A "joke," says the local police chief. Was it a "joke"?  Is somebody, somewhere, laughing? I pause, and place a hand to my ear. Is anybody laughing? Somehow, despite my infamously subtle sense of humor, I am not seeing the joke, and I am not hearing any laughter.

Giglio, chief. Have you all heard of that up there? Good luck on your next case where Officer Jokey Smurf is the charging officer or any kind of a material witness. You might think to ask yourself, "Where is our case going, and why is it in this hand-basket?"
