Ep. 1795 - They Lied About Karmelo Anthony. What Else Have They Lied About?

What was said

"Bryant never recanted her allegation. The claim that she recanted was made by a historian named Timothy Tyson. When the FBI questioned Bryant about these allegations, she said she did not make them, and the author's interview tape and transcripts do not show her making such statements."

Matt Walsh presented FBI findings that Carolyn Bryant Donham, who accused 14-year-old Emmett Till of sexual assault in 1955, never actually recanted her testimony despite widespread claims by historian Timothy Tyson that she had. The Justice Department investigation found no evidence supporting Tyson's assertion, and Bryant explicitly denied recanting when interviewed by federal agents. This directly challenges the mainstream narrative that has dominated civil rights education and recent activism calling for Bryant's prosecution.
