Waiting for the spin, ya' know it's coming... Some drivel about the hostile racist homophobic world Donald Trump has created drove him temporarily insane leading to this...
In other words, it'll still somehow be President Trump's fault.

The First American to scam Nigerians.
Dunno, they got money off him... CHICAGO (AP) Chicago police said Sunday they're still seeking a follow-up interview with Jussie Smollett after receiving new information that "shifted" their investigation of a reported attack on the "Empire" actor. The trajectory of the investigation "shifted" after detectives questioned two brothers about the attack and released them late Friday without charges, police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said Saturday. He said police also reached out to Smollett's attorney to request another interview with him. Guglielmi said Sunday the interview had not yet been conducted. He declined to comment on published reports that police believe Smollett staged the assault or that a grand jury may hear evidence in the case. The reports cited unnamed police sources. "We're not confirming, denying or commenting on anything until we can talk to him and we can corroborate some information that we've gotten," he said. Pamela Sharp, a spokeswoman for Smollett, said Sunday that there were no updates "as of now." Another spokeswoman, Anne Kavanagh, later said she couldn't comment on whether Smollett had agreed to another interview. Smollett's lawyers said late Saturday that the actor felt "victimized" by reports that he played a role in the assault, adding that, "Nothing is further from the truth and anyone claiming otherwise is lying." The statement from attorneys Todd Pugh and Victor P. Henderson also said Smollett would continue cooperating with police. Smollett, who is black and gay, has said he was physically attacked last month by two masked men shouting racial and anti-gay slurs and "This is MAGA country!" He said they looped a rope around his neck before running away as he was returning home from an early morning stop at a Subway restaurant in downtown Chicago. He said they also poured some kind of chemical on him. Police said they combed surveillance video in the heavily monitored area but were unable to find any footage of the attack. They did obtain images of two people they said they would like to question. On Wednesday, Chicago police picked up the brothers at O'Hare International Airport as they returned from Nigeria. They described them as "suspects" in the assault, questioned them and searched their apartment. Then, late Friday evening they released the two men without charges and said they were no longer suspects. They said they had gleaned new information from their interrogation of them. One of the men is Smollett's personal trainer, whom the actor hired to help get him physically ready for a music video, Smollett's attorneys said in their statement. "It is impossible to believe that this person could have played a role in the crime against Jussie or would falsely claim Jussie's complicity," the attorneys said. Police have said they were investigating the attack as a possible hate crime and considered Smollett a victim. Reports of the assault drew outrage and support for him on social media from some politicians and celebrities. Smollett's account of what happened also has been met with skepticism, particularly in the wake of the latest developments. Smollett, who is also a musician, gave an emotional speech during a Feb. 2 concert in West Hollywood, California, saying he went ahead with the show because he couldn't let his attackers win. He also gave an interview to Robin Roberts of ABC News that aired Thursday in which he said he was "pissed" at people who did not believe he was attacked. "I've heard that it was a date gone bad, which I also resent that narrative," he said. "I'm not gonna go out and get a tuna sandwich and a salad to meet somebody. That's ridiculous. And it's offensive." Earlier this week, police said reports that the attack against Smollett was a hoax were unconfirmed. Producers of the Fox television drama have supported Smollett, saying his character on "Empire," Jamal Lyon, was not being written off the show. Smollett turned over redacted phone records that police said were not sufficient for a criminal investigation. "Smollett turned over redacted phone records that police said were not sufficient for a criminal investigation. That sure sounds like "Smollett would continue cooperating with police" NOT. |

Now we move on to digging trenches and listening to crickets-
CHICAGO (AP) Attorneys for "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett say there are no plans for him to meet with Chicago detectives Monday for a follow-up interview about his reported assault.
Anne Kavanagh is a spokeswoman for Smollett's lawyers. She says in an emailed statement that his lawyers "will keep an active dialogue with Chicago police on his behalf."
Smollett reported last month that he was physically attacked by two men who yelled homophobic and racial slurs. He said they also yelled he was in "MAGA Country," an apparent reference to President Donald Trump's campaign slogan.
Police said Saturday that the investigation had "shifted" after detectives questioned two brothers about the attack and released them without charges. Police say they've requested a follow-up interview with Smollett.
Smollett's lawyers say the actor feels "victimized" by reports that he played a role in the assault.

What is factual?? What place are we in as a country right now??? The place where you are allowed the freedom to live as a Gay, Black entertainer, making millions of dollars, living your lifestyle in peace. Until you let your own racism and derangement get in the way and stage this stupid, racist stunt to get attention for yourself?? For a political agenda??? In alot of countries in this world he would be beaten and thrown off a roof just for his lifestyle. |

I'm wondering when this TV show will get the Roseanne treatment, cancel the show, remove all reruns from syndication, and Persona non grata this twattle...
(No, I don't really want that to happen, it was wrong when it was done to Roseanne, it'd be wrong if they did it to this twit, just pointing out the double standard once again.)

In his interview he is asked by Robin Roberts why he thought he was picked to attack. He gets this smirky little smile and said well I did come out hard against 45. Right, White Trump supporters would be following what a black gay actor is saying about his dislike for Trump. Until he made his claims I personally had never heard of him or his show.
I also heard a report that the police found a magazine in Smolletts apartment with words cut out of the text. I haven’t heard whether the words match those sent to him in the threatening letter he received that didn’t garner the attention he thought it should have. Hmmmm.

There has been a fair amount of this sort of thing going on the last 3 years, but for now this stunt takes the cake. He had better be prosecuted or it will continue and maybe even more elaborate. |
