Jussie Smollett Brothers Caught On Camera Buying Masks, Gloves for 'Attack'
TMZ ^ | 2/20/2019 1:55 PM PST | Staff

Posted on 02/20/2019 2:16:38 PM PST by Red Badger

The brothers who say Jussie Smollett hired them to stage the alleged attack were caught on surveillance camera buying a bunch of items they used during the incident.

The video -- first posted by CBS2 in Chicago -- shows Ola and Abel Osundairo at the checkout counter as they pile up the items, which include ski masks, gloves, bandanas, sunglasses and red hats.

EXCLUSIVE:

I tracked down surveillance of the Osundairo's buying supplies before "attack"

Sources say Jussie Smollet told brothers what to buy.

Countless phone calls placed for this.

At one point Abel pulls his hoodie over his head, perhaps attempting to hide his face, but he'd already been seen clearly on the video.

CBS2 says the brothers bought these items the day before the "attack" on Jussie.

The items are interesting ... we know Jussie said his attackers were wearing ski masks, and we also know police seized red hats when they raided the brothers' home in Chicago. The surveillance image police had released last month appears to show Abel and Ola with their faces still concealed under the ski masks.

As we first reported, the brothers were at court Tuesday, ready to testify for the grand jury -- but were called off at the last minute because Jussie's attorneys are going to speak to police.

We're told they will go before the grand jury when it finally convenes.

“I punched his ass back!” From his tuff guy interview, speaking of which, will he show up with the harridans looking for some more sympathy on ‘the view? Or spew if you like.

The arrest is next....

Yea, but arresting Trump is tricky. They're still trying to figure out how to arrest him for this.

All he has to do is walk with a limp and he is home free... no jail.

Hmmm... funny that the stupid, overpaid MSM reporters couldn’t be bothered doing this kind of work.

” This is looking more and more like a Guy Ritchie movie

Reminds me of the goobers who tried to hold up “the bookies” in “Snatch”.

Smollett suspected of filing false police report: CPD

Chicago police on Wednesday officially classified “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett as a suspect in a criminal investigation for allegedly filing a false police report.

Department spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said detectives were presenting evidence to a grand jury Wednesday afternoon to show that Smollett made the false report. Smollett has told police he was walking in the 300 block of East North Water Street about 2 a.m. Jan. 29 when two men walked up to him, yelled racial and homophobic slurs, hit him in the face, poured a substance — possibly bleach — on him and put a “thin, light rope” around his neck. The incident has been investigated as a hate crime.

Yea, the staff there probably remembers the purchase. It’s not every day that 2 Nigerians show up at a ski shop getting ready to take on the double-diamonds.

"Where can I get me a ski mask & MAGA hat ?"

Apparently, as a combo pack at your local five and dime on the south side.

CCTV is really affordable now. I would guess even the smallest retail vendor would have them right over the cash register.
