Is that the FBI office in Chicago? I recall how good the one was in Boston.

Chicago Police are fit to be tied. They had an airtight case... until the Obamas made a few phone calls and got the case tossed

Smolett had the right connections. That’s why he walked.

Most of us would be facing hard time with 16 felonies. Justice is a bitch.

Just ask Kim Foxxx who unrecused herself to get Smolett off the hook.

"Fox News legal analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano said."

And we know how accurate he is.

“It’s not a federal offense to mail a hoax threat to yourself.”

He mailed it, all with Powder, to his place of work.

“”Fox News legal analyst Judge Andrew Napolitano said.”

Quite true! That said, in this instance, he’s only reciting the penalties for mail fraud. That doesn’t require any “legal judgement!” You can look it up in the Fed Statutes.

The powder elevates it to a terrorism hoax.

Oh yes it is, if it’s used to develop a criminal act!

It’s still the FBI of the Kenyanesian Usurper, so nothing will happen.

The Chicago police department should give that activist AG one week to put this back into their hands or they will strike.

Skip the FBI...just hand it to Postal Inspectors. They are trained and do this type of work all the time. Once they determine a crime took place and have the supporting evidence lined up....let the federal justice system work. I’d tell Smollett you have one single chance to get a single-year sentence out of this...just come clean and admit it all. If not....prosecute for four years minimum in prison.

Transferring the case from Chicago/Illinois over to the FBI is not necessarily good news for Jussie. However, it is good news for the left. Now they will be able to concoct a meme of the FBI (ie. Trump) oppressing the gay black guy. The optics of the black Chicago police chief condemning Jussie were horrible for the left. The optics of having Trump as Jussie’s oppressor is exactly what the left wants.

He and his lawyers will whine that ‘Trump and his people’ are after him

Yes he will, and also play the race card, and that other card, which you know about, and he might win.👎

I think that the powder kicks it up another level.

Yes, that isn't something that will be erased by a flick of the mighty 0bama hand. That's serious federal time.
