  • The list of people that Hillary and Bill Clinton have purportedly killed to enhance their political careers grew a little bit longer in April 2017 when the web site geopolitica.ru published an article claiming that Johnston Wilson (J.W.) McGill, an assistant for the former Secretary of State, had died under mysterious circumstances: There is no truth to this rumor. Although Geopolitica.ru, this text originally appeared on The Last Line of Defense, an entertainment web site with a penchant for fake news. According to a disclaimer on the web site, all of its content is satirical: Although there is no truth to this rumor, conspiracy theorists quickly started spreading the claim that McGill was killed in an attempt to keep Clinton out of jail: In addition to the satirical origins of this story, we also found several holes in this claim. For one, we found no record of a Johnston Wilson McGill working on Hillary Clinton's staff, or any genuine news reports about his alleged death. Furthermore, Trey Gowdy concluded his investigation into the Benghazi email scandal in July 2016. Although this article does not include a date for the death of the fictional J.W. McGill, the web sites appear to have published the story in March and April of 2017. (en)
