Notice in TMZ’s report....the Police Superintendent is outraged for gays and blacks....but NO OUTRAGE FOR WHITE MAGA FOLKS.

The Police Superintendent just expressed his outrage at Jussie Smollett for allegedly betraying the African American and LGBT communities to further his career in a “publicity stunt.” The superintendent said Smollett created the ruse because “he was dissatisfied with his salary” on “Empire.”

As one of the leaders of a hazmat team... I can’t even tell you how much time we wasted responding to “white powder incidents”. The only one which wasn’t a deliberate hoax was at a school where several envelopes that teachers had been given by the administration had enough corn starch in them them to be noticeable.

We wasted a bunch of time analyzing the powder. When we figured out what it was, we were able to track down the remaining packages of envelopes at the school administration’s headquarters (at a different location) and found a lot of powder. We called the manufacturer who said that they used the corn starch to keep the adhesive from sticking the envelopes together before they were licked, but admitted that they had recently had some issues with the machine that “sprinkles” it.

On November 28, 1987, Tawana Brawley, who had been missing for four days from her home in Wappingers Falls, New York, was found seemingly unconscious and unresponsive, lying in a garbage bag several feet from an apartment where she had once lived.

Her clothing was torn and burned, her body smeared with feces.

She was taken to the emergency room, where the words “KKK”, “nigger”, and “bitch” were discovered written on her torso with charcoal.[4]

_____________________

Grand jury hearings

Under the authority of New York State Attorney General Robert Abrams, a grand jury was called to hear evidence.

On October 6, 1988, the grand jury released its 170-page report concluding Brawley had not been abducted, assaulted, raped and sodomized, as Brawley and her advisers said.

The report further concluded that the "unsworn public allegations against Dutchess County Assistant District Attorney Steven Pagones" were false and had no basis in fact.

Before issuing the report, the grand jury heard from 180 witnesses, saw 250 exhibits and recorded more than 6,000 pages of testimony.[5]

In the decision, the grand jury noted many problems with Brawley's story. Among these were that the rape kit results did not indicate sexual assault.

Additionally, despite saying she been held captive outdoors for days, Brawley was not suffering from hypothermia, was well-nourished, and appeared to have brushed her teeth recently.

Despite her clothing being charred, there were no burns on her body.

Although a shoe she was wearing was cut through, Brawley had no injuries to her foot.

The racial epithets written on her were upside down, which led to suspicion that Brawley had written the words.

Testimony from her schoolmates indicated she had attended a local party during the time of her supposed abduction.

One witness claimed to have observed Brawley's climbing into the garbage bag.[23]

The feces on her body were identified as coming from her neighbor's dog.[24]

Brawley never testified despite a subpoena ordering her to do so.[25][26]

On June 6, 1988, Tawana's mother Glenda Brawley was sentenced to 30 days in prison and fined $250 for contempt of court for refusing to testify at the grand jury hearing.

She evaded arrest by hiding in churches, with the police failing to arrest her, arguing it would lead to violence.[27]

The Brawley family then fled New York state, travelling around the country for several months before settling in Virginia Beach.[28]

[Update: The two men once considered suspects in the Jussie Smollett case were prepared to testify to a grand jury Tuesday, but a last-minute call from Smollett’s lawyers claiming they possibly have new evidence led to prosecutors postponing the testimony.]


New evidence? I’m guessing they’re doing some heavy duty plea bargaining.

The letter is going to send Jussie to the Federal “pound me in the a**” prison (Office Space reference).

One of the Analyze This or Analyze That movies had the henchman Jelly working on a phony suicide letter that would end with “Signed, The Dead Guy.”

That’s about the mental level of the Smollett case people.
Kinda stupid.

A magazine is one of the pieces of evidence retrieved from the brother’s home last week during a search conducted by CPD. Investigators also recovered a book of stamps.

Every lawyer in Chicago is calling everyone who may have came in contact with that letter.

The penalty for writing a racist letter MUST be the same for anyone who writes it.

Not what happens. A member of a government-certified victim group is never charged with a crime.

“We expect more charges to follow, upon the completion of the United States Postal Inspector investigation.

The charges we expect would be related not to his staged attack, but rather from the alleged terroristic hoax letter he sent himself, that was sprinkled with crushed Tylenol to simulate anthrax.”

The media seems to be looking for ways to show him out to be a victim; lashing in out in a bad, but understandable way to the racism that he perceives.
This needs to be seen as inciting violence.

This is another level of the race card.

I really wouldn’t want to be one of his lawyers. Everyone knows the guy himself is going to get away with this. But if he actually tells his lawyers he did it, well, they won’t get away with that.

1) how does someone write that many letters to words with charcoal? Even a sharpie goes blunt and smeary after a while. Charcoal must have required a K-Mart Charcoal Sharpener to keep it legible. Notice I didn’t fall for saying Wal Mart, an anachronism as it did not exist then. Clever, huh?

2) How can the despicable and rotten American people allow Sharpton to be out of prison and not only that, a regular cable news TV show host? Unforgivable. In case anyone forgot, Sharpton incited a riot among a crowd of blacks and told them to go kill the Jews. One followed his order and came upon a slender young Orthodox Jewish student and murdered him. 1992 in NYC.

As always, I exempt all FReepers and the 62,979,636 people like me who voted for Trump in 2016. Everyone else: you are filthy enablers who let Bill ,Hillary,Obama,Sharpton,Mueller,McCabe and many others walk around free. Shame on you. Get out of my life.
