A key part of Jussie Smollett's story is not tracking ... law enforcement sources tell TMZ.
TMZ broke many of the details of Jussie's story just hours after the attack ... the rope, the bleach, the statement by the attackers, "This is MAGA country" and also that his 2 attackers were white.
We have now confirmed, the 2 Nigerian men who were picked up by police at O'Hare Airport are black. Police say the 2 men are the same ones who were captured on surveillance video around the time of the incident.
Jussie told Robin Roberts this week, he's positive the 2 men on the surveillance video are the same 2 men who attacked him.
When we first reported the details of the story -- including Jussie saying the 2 men were white -- we were told twice, after we posted, it accurately reflected Jussie's version of events. We also spoke with our Jussie sources Friday and they reaffirmed he had said that day the men were white.
One of the reasons why it's so important ... as we reported, Jussie says the men hurled a racist epithet and screamed, "This is MAGA country." As you know, Trump reportedly made hateful remarks about African countries, calling them "Shithole countries."
The 2 men were both extras on "Empire."
We have asked one of Jussie's people if he knew the 2 men ... the rep said she did not know.
Nigeria is a shitthole country, yes?
Maybe they were in white face at the time....
With lots of oil...................and muslims...............
His a lying POS!!!
And princes that need you bank account number...................
If the races were reversed in this story, the accuser would already be in jail. For his own protection, of course. The SJW mobs would tear him apart. They will let this pass because the “victim” is a triple threat: black, faggot, celebrity. To doubt his sincerity would be racist and homophobic per the media. Time for serious pushback.
Ah, so that justifies rushing to conclusions and uncritically accepting a storyline that made no sense.
TMZ is not just any ol’ celebrity news site. When you’ve lost TMZ, you’ve got problems.
UNLESS you happen to be a fat lesbian. Several of those clowns have gotten away with perpetrating hoaxes too.
wait they could have been light skinned Nigerians!!
It is amazing the amount of time and resources being dedicated to a two bit publicity stunt.
When the truth is discovered we will not hear about it on the evening news.
This guy needed free publicity for his show.
Nigerians are taking the MAGA ass-kicking jobs that Americans used to do! LOL
Build the wall!!
Ellen Page: Please call your office!
It wasn’t ‘his’ show. He’s a second tier character..................
Who?.....................
This gives the MSM the opportunity to come up with a new race classification like they did in referring to George Zimmerman as a white Hispanic to keep up the racism charge. Those Nigerians will probably be referred to as White Nigerians from here on.
Six months in jail plus a fine equal to twice what the CPD spent on the investigation plus a written apology to PDJT.
Maybe they’re white-blacks sort of like Zimmerman was a white-Hispanic.
