I wonder if the brothers admitted that they colluded with Smollett to send the letter and the white substance in the mail. But the Feds who are in charge of the interstate mail threat investigation are not saying anything yet

They apparently seized a magazine at his apartment, and the theory is that there were a lot of letters cut out from it.

Not sure about that. Hollywood would pick him up regardless of what happened. Heck, because he is of the right race AND orientation ( a double advantage ), this, plus his notoriety will ensure MORE JUICY ROLES for him.

They smell blood in the water. Hollywood loves a scandal.

This guy not only has to worry about Illinois law, 1-3 years in the slammer, for filing a false report, but also federal law if he was involved with the letter. Sending a white powder substance is grounds for a terrorism charge.

Bye bye Jussie...

Please let it be true! I just don’t know if the police have the strength to arrest Smollett even if they know he pulled this hoax, including the letter. But we shall see.

The guys a total piece of garbage, but then all SJW’s are garbage. Black, gay and stupid is hard to overcome.

Now his career in Hollywood is over.

I always believe the noose media. Cable Noose Network is a particular favorite.

I don’t think even the Hollywood liberals will want to have much to do with him. I think he’s totally ruined himself.

‘Smellit’ will claim depression or something, seek counseling and skate. Then the FBI can get back to the task at hand. Persecuting PDJT.

The Letter with White Powder is a federal offense and terrorist-related.

Much worse than the Chicago charges for sure.

Because TMZ was a big sucker running with the story initially.

19 Feb: Daily Mail: EXCLUSIVE: Jussie Smollett appeared in a play about a biracial, gay sports star who endures attacks similar to the one he reported to police just HOURS before his ‘assault,’ and used Instagram to ‘alert Nigerian brothers to his location’
•Jussie Smollett appeared in a reading of the Tony-winning play Take Me Out the day before his attack, about a biracial baseball player coming out as gay
•In the play, the lead character is called a ‘f****t’ and ‘n****r’ by his teammates, slurs that Smollett later said were screamed by his alleged attackers...
By Chris Spargo
Two readings were done by the actors in attendance, which included Zachary Quinto, on the morning and afternoon of January 28.
Quinto would later speak out about the attack on Smollett, saying: ‘I was absolutely enraged by the injustice and the senselessness of such violence. but i was also vividly reminded that we MUST continue our fight for equality and acceptance at every turn in this country and in this world.
‘When talented and courageous young men like jussie are targeted and struck down in our streets - we must collectively RISE UP against such hatred and be IDENTIFIED and be PROUD and be STRONG in our convictions of truth and self-love and love for one another.’...

A source with knowledge of the investigation told DailyMail.com that investigators now believe these stories were all posted so Smollett could alert the men ahead of the attack.
Furthermore, they also believe that this could explain why a woman in Smollett’s building said she saw two men with a rope hanging around near the residences approximately 90 minutes before the incident...

The police found magazine in the Nigerians’ apartment, with cutouts on many different pages, that match the letters on the so-called “hate” letter.
