Jussie Smolett: Chicago grand jury charges US actor over hate hoax

Sources told NBC and CNN Mr Smollett had apologised to the cast for any embarrassment caused by the incident but maintained his innocence.Mr Smollett is accused of paying two brothers to stage the attack. Chicago officials also believe that he sent a racist and homophobic letter to himself at a Fox studio beforehand.Mr Smollett, who was pictured outside the courthouse after posting bail, denies the charge of felony disorderly conduct.

He said they then punched him, poured a potentially chemical substance over him and put a rope around his neck - a reference to racist lynchings of African-Americans. But investigators say they managed to use a ride-sharing app to track and identify two brothers who were filmed near the scene. Officials said they were released without charge after providing information that"shifted the trajectory of the investigation".Police say they have a cheque, signed by Mr Smollett, which showed that he had agreed to pay the brothers $3,500.

When you live a country that is so Un racist that you have to hire two black men too attack you.

Can see his lawyers now going for the “If the noose don’t fit, you must acquit” defense

He tried to start a race war. He deserves life.

Nothing less than he deserves, can run an acting workshop in prison.

Well at least JussieSmollett can now prepare for a great performance in court. Maybe sell rights to netflix ? What a total cock🤭

silly boy

You can't get more 'hate crime' than what this cvnt did. Lock the cvnt up for a long time.

It’s people like him causing all the trouble between races shame on you you fool you had everything now I hope you lose it all. All because of your greed for more money end of career I hope

Now's the best chance for him to give a quality performance one like he's never delivered before not just based on the truth but the actual truth.

I bet he got more twitter followers tho

This thread White people: Good! *Smug face* Everyone else:

Wonder when headline will read BBC: Ofcom finds publicly funded body guilty of lying, following various agendas that suit, supporting peadophiles, and taking money under false pretences.

Blaming Trump supporters for a staged attack. This pos needs to go down for a long time.

Hope he'll go to prison for lying, smearing other people, causing divisions, victim Olympics and being a test in general

GOOD, I wonder if Lammy or Abbott have any comment to make about this?

This is just so peculiar. I wonder if he's had to speak to a psychiatrist.

Hopefully we have reached peak 'identity politics' and cultural Marxist race baiting? Can we now stop being obsessed with our colour and gender and 'privilege' – or lack thereof – and just try and live together with one another? The sooner the better.

Good 👏🏻

How to utterly destroy your life in one move

Well he certainly got the publicity he set out to get eh...

Turned out he wasn’t a good actor after all. No wonder Empire weren’t paying him the big bucks.

Lock him up in mainstream so he can be the sissy he wants to be

Why hate when you have cake 🍰
