Did Hillary Clinton wear an earpiece to CHEAT the US debate? Conspiracy theory sweeps web

AFTER Hillary Clinton was declared winner of the first presidential debate, rumours have spread that she used an earpiece to cheat. But is the bizarre theory true?

Conspiracy theorists claim to have spotted Mrs Clinton wearing a secret earpiece during the presidential debate on Monday September 26.

Some have even suggested that the earpiece allowed the Democrat’s team to help her out during the clash. Others have said it could be a mystery medical device.

Conspiracy theorists have claimed Hillary Clinton wore an earpiece during the presidential debate

Did Hillary Clinton wear an earpiece in the US debate?

Close-up photos of Mrs Clinton allegedly show that she was wearing a hidden earpiece during the clash with her rival Donald Trump.

“What is it for?” the Catholic Online website asked. “Is it so a team can feed her answers? Is it an anti-seizure device? A hearing aid?”

A separate image circulating on Twitter shows what appears to be a wire running down Mrs Clinton’s back and leading to a larger box.

Both candidates were clearly wearing lapel mics

The Political Insider blog suggested the bulge could be a “coughing prevention machine” amid conspiracy theories that the 68-year-old is gravely ill.

Many social media users have reasoned that the device is most likely to be a microphone pack. Both Mrs Clinton and Mr Trump wore visible lapel mics, which require the user to wear a battery pack, during the debate.

It is not the first time that Mrs Clinton has been accused of using a secret earpiece.
