CHICAGO -- Chicago police confirmed Thursday that detectives are talking to two persons of interest in connection with the alleged attack on "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett.
Multiple sources have told ABC7 Eyewitness News that police are investigating whether Smollett and the two men staged the attack allegedly because Smollett was being written off of "Empire."
A source familiar with the investigation told the ABC7 I-Team that Smollett failed to appear for an interview with detectives earlier Thursday.
A source briefed on the Smollett investigation confirmed to ABC News that Chicago police are questioning the two persons of interest -- one of whom has appeared on "Empire."
The law enforcement official also told ABC News that the homes of the persons of interest were raided Wednesday night. Police removed shoes, electronic devices and other items they believe could help them they determine if the two people played any role in the assault from those homes.
Chicago police said they "cannot confirm any of those reports." No charges have been filed.

He’ll get a promotion. He brought awareness to the hate crime problem under Trump...seeeeee?
On suspicion only? Is that legal?
can you link me tmz discussion
Worse was knowingly trying to defame millions of Trump voters.
The only way to keep a secret is to keep it to yourself.
Once you involve another person, it’s over.
Now, charge his and his friends with everything on the Books and make them pay restitution one License Plate at a time..
Words with the wisdom of Solomon.
Charge him with falsifying a hate crime.
I think Al Sharpton has the copyright. He should have called in the Reverunt Al right off the bat!
Lamest hoax ever.
He may be devious but he needs to be a whole lot smarter to pull off a hoax like this.I guess that evolution left him a little light in the lobes.
Getting caught doesn’t mean much of anything will happen to him (legally).
I’m still of the opinion that it will play out that way. I would be quite happy to be wrong and see him getting this just rewards in the back door. But it ain’t gonna happen.
"And loving it!"
The scary thing is that liberal politicians use these as ways to garner power and hate against their enemies which is obviously anybody who believes in MAGA. This is a hoax but most libtards will believe as true and live on as a legend.
[For him to have done this, to try to destroy INNOCENT peoples LIVES all because he was going to be written off a stupid show. I want his ass LOCKED UP!!! Arrest him Roger Stone style.]
He made a false police report. No matter what the reason, he should be locked up. And for awhile, too.
On the way, perp-walked in an orange jumpsuit.

Good Morning America loves fierce drag queens......

Sarah, locked up is not enough. This race bater cost thousands of dollars in police time. This “actor” needs to be fined big time dollars. Think Roger Stone.
There should be a law that jails racist like this making fake claims.
Trying to create a fake controversy just like a certain quarterback who was about to be cut by the 49ers?
