Special prosecutor Dan Webb continued his closing argument on Monday by laying out six key pieces of evidence that he believes “destroy” Jussie Smollett’s defense.

In recapping what he already ran the jury through at trial, Webb summarized the case Wednesday in just six easy points for the jury to consider when they go into deliberations either later today or tomorrow:

1. Smollett allegedly withheld evidence from the police such as DNA evidence, medical records and his phone records. Webb believes this is because he didn’t want the crime to be solved.

2. Smollett actively attempted to mislead the police by saying that his attackers were White or “pale-skinned” when the Osundairo brothers are dark-skinned Black men from Nigeria.

3. Smollett faked evidence by seemingly adjusting the rope that his attackers allegedly put around his neck to look tighter when speaking with police. Webb showed an image of the rope looking tighter in his interview with the police. Smollett previously testified that he took the rope off but put it back on when he realized it was important evidence that he shouldn’t have tampered with.

4. The Osundairo brothers could not possibly have known where Smollett was without him telling them his location. Smollett says he was out at 2 a.m. that night to get eggs to keep up with a diet plan but the store was closed. So, he grabbed a Subway sandwich and walked home where he was attacked. Webb went over Instagram messages with Abel Osundairo while Smollett was on the stand Tuesday to try to prove that he was communicating his position.

That’s not how it worked in Kyle’s trial

Binger got the last word, didn’t he?

Maybe I remember it wrong
