Seems like even the usual suspects on here aren’t wanting to touch this one. And it wasn’t a week or so ago people were down my throat because I dare say hoaxes are common. :D

the article I linked says police confirmed that Smollet was walking across the street from these two possible POIs and then out of frame. Then, a minute later is seen in another video camera with a necktie rope around his neck. The alleged attack is not on video. Pretty elaborate if it is a hoax. but then no amount of video evidence is sufficent for some people


They ran across the street, beat him up, poured bleach on him, tied a noose around his neck, yelled MAGA, and left in a minute? :eek:

I wonder if the videos show him on his phone at the time...

I see the MAGA police are all over this incident, increasingly desperate to spray blame all over the victim if possible. Whatever blood must be shed in the unending defense of the MAGA.

lol, you guys are such treasures.

This just gets more and more bizarre. Now he says he was on the phone with his manager when the attack happened yet nobody called the police and he won't turn over the phone. And his manager heard the MAGA comments that Jussie originally didn't mention to the police as having happened. If all that is true he's just not helping himself at all.

Neighbor Says She Saw Suspicious 'Redneck' ... With Rope

She says she noticed what looked like a rope, or a clothesline, protruding from the bottom of his sweatshirt, made of white and blue material.
She says he was staring at another man about 300 feet away, who was standing near another entrance to the building.
She says she got "creeped out" by the man, and after 5 minutes she retreated back into the building.

So this was someone that is literally in his same apartment.

So these guys were hanging out near the apartment... but the attack occurred right after he left the Subway restaurant (according to Chicago Tribune article)...

So... if they were originally at his apartment (according to this witness), they had to have followed him to the restaurant...

Also it's not at all surprising that you're too fucking retarded to understand the difference between "suspects" and "persons of interest".
Why is it that you're always namecalling like a 'typical liberal'?

Ha ha! You actually believe that.
I know it. You should have seen him in the thread where some MAGA got his little red hat knocked off. And oh the outrage over the supposed lack of MSM coverage. And then of course that was a hoax...

Well at least you're honest about your motivation for posting here.

Remember the girl who carved a "B" in her cheek claiming Obama supporters did it. Do you think the usual cadre of people here who always claim black people are making it up believed her?
