There’s More…
As y’all already know, Jussie publicly claimed he was attacked by two White men, who rocked MAGA hats, poured beach on him, put a rope around his neck, yelled ‘This is MAGA country!’ at him, called him a “fa**ot” and a “ni&&er.” That is also what he reportedly told police.
However, two Nigerian brothers -Abimbola “Abel” and Olabinjo “Ola” Osundairo- who worked on the Empire set, gave many details regarding the alleged “attack” plot they say Jussie Smollett hired them to do. There was also several pieces of circumstantial evidence law enforcement discovered which corroborated the brother’s stories, allowing the charges to be brought against Jussie weeks ago.
Interestingly, the latest AP report also noted this:
Via AP– An attorney for them [Abel and Ola] has said the brothers agreed to help Smollett because of their friendship with him and the sense that he was helping their careers.
As far as the hate mail police said Jussie mailed to himself, here’s the latest:
Via AP- Police have also said that before the attack, Smollett sent a letter that threatened him to the Chicago studio where “Empire” is shot. The FBI, which is investigating that letter, has declined to comment on the investigation.
This latest ruling is leaving MANY eyebrows raised. We will keep y’all posted on this, because there seems to be many details that have been left out, which may eventually surface.
