Cops say he's no longer a victim and they want to talk to him again.
Some groups are calling for his arrest and prosecution.
I'll be curious what Robin Roberts, Harvey Levin, etc. has to say tomorrow. 🤔
Interesting turn of events. They will still support him even when he is behind bars.
shareI notice you give no information or link.
I found this:
"He has now been further victimized by claims attributed to these alleged perpetrators that Jussie played a role in his own attack. Nothing is further from the truth and anyone claiming otherwise is lying."
Smollett's attorneys said they expect further updates from Chicago police on the investigation and will continue cooperating with authorities.
"At the present time, Jussie and his attorneys have no inclination to respond to 'unnamed' sources inside of the investigation
I notice you give no information or link for your statement as well. Source? Link?
"As for your use of "officially" in your topic title, it appears you are repeating a tweet trumpeted by Fox News that doesn't fully represent the investigation."
Just a mere 20 days ago, you also rushed to judgement and said this:
[–] Frogarama (10279) 20 days ago
Sounds like America is truly "great" again.
A "great" embarrassment.
I also found this:
De Mar spoke on the phone exclusively with the Osundairo brothers Monday afternoon. In a joint statement, they said: “We are not racist. We are not homophobic and we are not anti-Trump. We were born and raised in Chicago and are American citizens.”
Oh and P.S., if you think police are immune to rushing to judgment themselves in an investigation, I would turn you toward a harrowing recent example, which I know well because we are still dealing with the fallout ("we" because I am personally involved in the fallout).
Just hit up a search engine and type in the words Rasmussen, Lazarus, and Francis together.
There is a book being written about this one.
And P.S.S. I see now that the narrative is not going your way you are now attacking the Chicago Police Dept for possibly "fabricating" this new story.
I suggest you google these 3 words and learn about people rushing to judgment

"Roger Stone Posted A Picture Of The Federal Judge On His Case With Gun Target Crosshairs."
Holy shit. That guy is absolutely bonkers. I really hope they give him some serious time that Trump can't just pardon away.
He's completely lost his mind. Yet notice how quiet the Republicans and FOX news are on this latest story? Imagine if it was a Democrat?
shareMaybe they want to check their facts before going with the story unlike certain other MSM networks... lol
shareI’m guessing not. FOX doesn’t do that.
shareNeither does the rest of the MSM apparently but so long as they are left-leaning you don´t have a problem with that amirite? BTW, you still believe in the Smollett story? You didn´t quite clarify yourself, you kinda just disappeared.... lol
shareI’ve said numerous times I’m waiting for everything to unravel and the truth to come out. Where have you been?
shareOh so now you´re waiting for everything to unravel? When the story first hit, you were quick to jump on it as a MAGA hate crime. How convenient! smh...
shareThe story has taken a turn of events. Where have you been? Smh
shareI´ve been where I´ve always been, waiting for the truth to come out before I jump on the latest fake news story that is spoon fed to the sheep... My bullshit meter went off the radar when I first heard it, which is why I sat back and waited for the facts to come out and for the Trump derangement to subside unlike a certain few...
shareAll you said 21 days ago was that Chicago PD concluded no MAGA comments were made which of course CPD had made no such statement. Then you disappear for nearly three weeks just to show up two days ago to criticize others who have also been waiting for the results to come in. All you are doing here is being an opportunistic troll trying to give the "ah-ha I told you so" when all you spouted was fake news.
shareThank You ultravioletx - now he shall go back into hiding (I knew he hasn't been around the past few weeks). These trolls are like cockroaches - as soon as you shine the light on them, they run and hide.
share@doggie That´s rich comparing me to a cockroach, while you dodged that thread like the plague when the truth came out and still can´t admit you´re wrong...
shareWhat I said was at least reported, CPD couldn´t confirm the MAGA comments as true, they only had Smollett´s testimony. How noble of you to go rummaging through my comment history to white knight, for your sheep friend though....
But yeah I´m the one spouting fake news.... I pretty much said, maybe wait for the full story before jumping to conclusions. Doggie actually repeatedly spammed the most obvious fake news story in recent memory but yeah he gets a pass because "Orange man bad". You leftists are a truly pathetic lot...
What I said was at least reported

The judge presiding over the Roger Stone case ordered a hearing this thursday over his instagram threat. One can only hope for bail revocation (no more house arrest, to prison he would go) or an order shutting down his internet access.

Lock Smollett up!
shareIf this guy staged an attack, and it's looking more likely that he did, then he should be held responsible for crying wolf (jail, loss of job, tar and feather, whatever).
That being said, there's a reason why it seemed so likely that MAGA people committed yet another hate crime.
And is now a suspect...
Along with this--
Cook County state's attorney approved felony charges against Jussie Smollett!
