Shortly after the murder of Mary Phagan, a bloody shirt was found on Newt Lee's property. Newt was an employee at the pencil factory.
Here are the issues with that:
1. The shirt had no body odor.
2. The blood was not splattered onto the shirt; it had been smeared onto it.
3. Mary Phagan was strangled, so there was only a small amount of blood at the crime scene.
So, it is pretty obvious that (((someone))) planted that shirt in an effort to get suspicion away from Leo Frank.
Who?
And where the heck did that blood come from?
That is very scary to me.
*Shudders*

This is my first time hearing about it, I think.
