Bubba Wallace noose hoax: NASCAR star opens up on FBI investigation

In an interview with the CNN, the NASCAR star weighed in on the Bubba Wallace FBI investigation and the finding of the noose in his garage. While he expressed relief at not being the target of a hate crime, he did not buy into the garage loop explanation and believes it was definitely a noose. Bubba Wallace added that he has never seen a garage loop like that in his career and that it was definitely a noose, whether it was directed at him or not. The Bubba Wallace FBI investigation concluded that the noose in question was actually a knot tied to act as the garage door rope, helping in bringing down the door. The noose had been in the garage since Talladega 2019 and was not aimed at Bubba Wallace, and hence no charges were pressed.
