Jussie Smollett Insisted Brett Kavanaugh Did Not Deserve Presumption of Innocence

With the arrest Thursday morning of Empire star Jussie Smollett, the actor’s defense team put out a statement celebrating the fact that he was afforded the “presumption of innocence” like any other citizen. But last, year Smollett himself insisted that Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was guilty until proven innocent.

Jussie Smollett turned himself in early on Thursday morning, and the Chicago Police processed him into the system. Concurrent with his arrest, the actor’s team put out a statement reasserting Smollett’s “presumption of innocence” and slamming the Chicago Police for “leaking” information about the investigation to the press.

“Like any other citizen, Mr. Smollett enjoys the presumption of innocence, particularly when there has been an investigation like this one where information, both true and false, has been reportedly leaked. Given these circumstances, we intend to conduct a thorough investigation and to mount an aggressive defense.”

The more I hear about Juicy Smellit, the more I can’t stand the guy and want him to pay the price to the max.

Thanks for the mention.

Seems somewhat appropriate on this matter.

What a douchebag

Jussie is not smart enough to come to such a decision. Some trump-hating lawyer is pulling that puppet’s strings for his own agenda.

"They did a good job, yes, but I do have a problem with the press conference where they failed to mention that everyone with a MAGA hat was smeared with this accusation."

Just a thought.

Maybe the MAGA stuff will appear when the investigation on the letter is finished. A different dept is dealing with that.

Also, there is no proof (video/audio) that MAGA was uttered. Wasn't that comment added later by the faker?

That would have been unprofessional and improper as he has not been legally declared guilty...your wish of a statement is proper after the fact of a trial.
