For victims of hate crimes, Jussie Smollett's case is a giant betrayal

it's the media creating the distrust. mr. somllett did commit a crime and needs to be held accountable as does anyone else that does a crime in America even if liberals teach otherwise. There R over 1.2 billion blacks world wide. they are not a minority.

Most Police will be even more carful now because of this racist idiot Smollet The last thing Police want is to treat a hate crime victims as if they’re lying. No thanks to Smollet

Wait the police used hundreds of hours investigating the originally stated crime proving they initially believed the victim, They are not systematic they work on a case by case basis, any distrust is solely manufactured by the other groups mentioned & media who fans the flames

For victims of hate crimes, the national mainstream media's breathless & shrill fake news of Jussie Smollett hoax was a giant betrayal. They, as a group [collusion] so wanted the story to be true - just as they did with the Covington kids - that they forgot to consider ethics.

How could faking a hate crime go bad

It means you better be honest tell the truth and not give fake statements fake news period!

As for believing in victims, the police must be trained to investigate into allegations and let evidence lead the way. The penalty for false reporting hate crime should be high, since it is indeed rare. Yet it’s sad to see that so many who trusted him are now feeling betrayed

In a weird stance I have to take, Smollett is innocent until proven guilty in court, civil or criminal

I’d say it creates distrust between citizens and certain journalists/politicians.

I think it should be fine. Smollett just was so unrealistic. 3am in the freezing cold. With a rope, trump hats, bleach and calling you homophobic and racist slurs. And nothing on camera on a heavily monitored area. Any logical person can see.

What a publicity stunt. I know actors will do all sorts of the dumb Sh*t stuff but this is near the top of it!

Democrats have staged hundreds of hoaxes while simultaneously attacking Trump supporters. This isn’t about being gay. It’s about being lying racist Democrats.

How many USA police departments are fronts for domestic terrorism units?

No, it won't: For all the excitement, politicization, media frenzy, and outrage (legit or not), this is just another eye-rolling bit of daily weirdness for most veteran cops. The REAL implications for action will not be determined by the rhetorical ones.

You mean police and fake victims?

Tawana Brawley - Hoax Duke Rape Case - Hoax Trayvon Martin - Hoax Michael Brown - Hoax Jussie Smollett is not the only hoax so stop acting as if it is.

It's really basic: the Left should stop lying or cheating - it is always self-defeating, sooner or later.

Well if the objective of these 'some gay Americans and racial minorities' is to stage hate crimes & they are worried the police will expose them as hoaxes then yes, the Smollett case will 'accelerate distrust'

Um...like yeh - you bet it will

Police can usually tell a wannabe victim from a real victim but in the court of public opinion, Jussie Smollett did a great disservice to all victims of hate crimes

Wonder? If there were an awards show with categories like 'Greatest Betrayal of Trust', 'Most Orchestrated Attack', 'Best Actor in Hateful, Politically, Racially Motivated Hoax', Jussie Smollett would sweep. In all seriousness, a sad situation for many reasons. fauxscers

Most cops don’t let these things get to them. They know how to deal with criminals and the mentality ill

Go away dude! You’re fake as they come. I don’t want to see his name anymore

NOPE. They will DISTRUST MSM . and the HOLLYWOOD ELITES. and those who were in the middle KNOW NOW that they have always been LIED TO.

Horrible comments from Maga bots here.

It certainly accelerated the distrust between people and fake news media. It woke both blacks & whites up to how much the media pulls the wool over everybody’s eyes regarding race, thereby intentionally acerbating race relations. EnemyOfThePeople

He’s only making things worse by sticking with his story.

An absolute ignorant post.

well noted los angeles times

It's simply amazing The arrogance of man We think ourselves special But rarely know demand … … … …

Well don't lie when filing a Police report, easy peasy

Accelerate the distrust? Is the distrust not getting here fast enough for you?!

No it shouldn't do that, just distrust between anything Jussie Smollett says ever again and the police.
