On Monday, fifteen FBI special agents conducted numerous interviews regarding the situation at Talladega Superspeedway," the joint statement from U.S. Attorney Jay E. Town and FBI Special Agent in Charge Johnnie Sharp, Jr. "After a thorough review of the facts and evidence surrounding this event, we have concluded that no federal crime was committed.
"The FBI learned that garage number 4, where the noose was found, was assigned to Bubba Wallace last week. 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.
The decision not to pursue federal charges is proper after reviewing all available facts and all applicable federal laws. We offer our thanks to NASCAR, Mr. Wallace, and everyone who cooperated with this investigation.”Following law enforcement's announcement, NASCAR put out its own statement Tuesday saying:
"The FBI has completed its investigation at Talladega Superspeedway and determined that Bubba Wallace was not the target of a hate crime. The FBI report concludes, and photographic evidence confirms, that the garage door pull rope fashioned like a noose had been positioned there since as early as last fall. This was obviously well before the 43 team’s arrival and garage assignment. 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.”Richard Petty Motorsports also released a statement on Twitter Tuesday night detailing the timeline and investigation. It read in part:
"On Sunday, June 21, members of Richard Petty Motorsports discovered a rope tied in the fashion of a noose in the garage stall assigned to the team at the Talladega (Ala.) Superspeedway. In accordance with established protocols, our team member notified the crew chief who notified NASCAR of the presence of the item in the garage stall. NASCAR leadership determined the course of action going forward with an immediate investigation into the item and its possible origins. In the early stages of the investigation, NASCAR's Steve Phelps notified Darrell "Bubba" Wallace Jr., of the information gathered and the presence of the item in the garage stall of his team. have complicated feelings about the spectacle that kicked off Monday's NASCAR race at the Talladega Motor Speedway.
To start the race, Bubba Wallace, NASCAR's lone Black full-time driver, was joined by a huge crowd of all his opponents and their crews, as they pushed his car around the track in a show of solidarity. Someone -- perhaps a NASCAR insider, given the restricted access to the facility where it was found -- had left a noose in Wallace's garage stall, garage No. 4. Wallace, who was visibly emotional during this display, has been a vocal advocate for Black Lives Matter and spoke out against the display of the Confederate flag in NASCAR events, which NASCAR banned earlier this month. In its own statement, NASCAR noted, "The FBI report concludes, and photographic evidence confirms, that the garage door pull rope fashioned like a noose had been positioned there since as early as last fall." The statement also said: "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."
On the one hand, a crowd of overwhelmingly White men rallying behind a Black colleague who was the victim of a racist incident was powerful to watch on Monday. On the other hand, it was also precisely the kind of sappy White savior moment designed to make audiences feel virtuous about the state of race relations in America (yes, at the time many believed he may have just been a victim of a federal hate crime, but -- how heroic! -- his White opponents pushed his car). NASCAR wasted no time packaging a slick video of the scene, with a tagline: "We are one family."
