Jussie Smollett indicted on 16 counts on allegedly phony claims of racist, homophobic attack

A Cook County grand jury has charged actor Jussie Smollett in a 16-count indictment that alleges he lied to Chicago police about being the victim of a phony attack.

The"Empire" star had been initially charged last month by prosecutors on one felony count of filing a false report.The incident sparked breathless international media coverage and intense social media speculation, accelerated by the political implications of an openly gay black man's alleged assault by attackers who put a noose around his neck.

Naturally, though the LAT's has had this news - put it on-line yesterday - they did not publish it in today's print edition. As with the fake Covington story, which the media shrilled - trying to promote hate and division - it just goes away when the outcome is unwanted by them

Fine - now let's charge the national main stream media with jumping on this obvious faked hate crime with the intent of further dividing our great country. They never miss a 'faked' opportunity - just as they did with the innocent Covington HS kids.

The real hate crime was for bringing Subway into this fuster cluck

Democrats gonna dem...

He has no WhitePrivilege so he will get convicted and sentence to 47 YEARS in jail.

Did JussieSmollett murdered anyone to get 16 felony counts? Injustice

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣!
