From current news reports it sounds like the challenge for law enforcement will probably be in gathering enough conclusive hard evidence on either Smollett for filing false police report or the two brothers that he alleges attacked him in order to file criminal charges and prosecute. As it stands now, it sounds like all they've got is his version versus theirs as to what happened.
I am pretty sure they have a lot more than just a "he said/she said" case with plenty of corroborating evidence and that it will be going to Grand Jury for an indictment. They will be throwing the book at him with at least lower end felonies, he has some problems. He wanted to be in the news and he is going to be in he news. Idiot.

I read in one of the articles that police collected magazines (among other things) from the brothers residence. The brothers are saying they are American citizens and are not anti-Trump.
Motive for the hoax attack was that the threat letter with crushed aspirin in it didn't gain enough media attention.
My speculation is that the letters cut out to make the threat letter, came from these magazines......just a hunch.
Jussie denying everything.
Looks to me like Jussie is riding the Fail Train all the way to the (police) station.

I think there is going to be a weird twist to this story:
The planning and execution of the attack, and the crescendo toward it, seems almost intentionally moronic. Watching the ABC interview, he is obviously not a dumb person; a cunning sociopath probably. I think he planned an off ramp from the narrative for himself somewhere if the chit hit the fan, which he probably expected and planned for.

If he does stand by story he may go to jail and he might go to jail anyway if he is lying.

I saw that. Pretty funny. Now, all of a sudden, she's needing "confirmation". LMAO. Race- baiting ckhunt. Note the timing of this hate crime set up and Kamala's bill in the Senate making lynching illegal. This whole thing was a set-up by the Democrats.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Give a man a welfare check, a forty ounce malt liquor, a crack pipe, an Obama phone, free health insurance. and some Air Jordan's and he votes Democrat for a lifetime.

Hell yes, this country thrives on double standards. Was watching MMA the other night, Mexican fighter had “Brown Pride” tattooed acros his chest..could you imagine? Back in the 70's, when the "Black is Beautiful" saying was first coined, I went to the restroom at the place I was working to take a crap, and some toilet poet had written on the wall.....If Black is beautiful, then I just chit a masterpiece.

A actor should never try to write his own scripts. They are never as smart as a good writer can make them seem.

Was CNN there for this morning's SWAT FIB raid? (Just because they put 2 and 2 together and got 12...) Not yet? Imagine that.

I am pretty sure they have a lot more than just a "he said/she said" case with plenty of corroborating evidence and that it will be going to Grand Jury for an indictment. While driving last night, I heard a snippet of an ABC new story from a Chicago station, wherein I thought I heard that the police had taken magazines from the brothers' apartment that had the same letters cut out of them, that had been used in the "hate mail" that Smollett had received a week or 2 before "the attempted MAGA lynching". Could it be that he faked BOTH hate crimes??? PERISH the thought... I've been trying to find corroboration of this today, but haven't yet found any. FC

The fake attack was because the first story did not get enough attention. https://www.yahoo.com/gma/brothers-...paid-223020484--abc-news-topstories.html

Like no white hetero male who is a public figure ever got any hate mail. I am a straight white male and have been banned on Mother Earth News and shadow banned on Huffington Post and accuweather. Rather than pity myself as a victim of micro aggression, it has made me stronger. Harvard liberal professor Haidt says that the current political climate is making self pity victims weaker. He says the only ones getting stronger are straight white males.

The demand for hate crimes is generated by the political positions of the Democratic Party.
Demand for hate crimes outstrips supply.
