Smollett’s agent has to be furious at the guy...stupid childish behavior with the fake assault. If he had just accepted the reduced role, and moved on...he would have had another role in a year. Now? Jail-time.
Smollett’s manager was part of the scam, remember the phone call?
So, my question is, was the manager he was talking to on the phone during the fake beat down in on the scam or was he being used as a patsy to help verify the fake beating?
I think that Smollett's agent was involved in this as a purportedly corroborating "ear-witness". Supposedly, he was on the phone with Smollett when this attack was allegedly occurring, and he backed up Smollett's statement by telling authorities that he heard the "MAGA" remark and other sounds during the "assault".
Make no mistake about it: Smollett's agent was involved in it ...
