Smollett is doubling down on stupid.

How can he not be charged with perjury after this?

How is Smollett going to spin the checks he wrote them to ‘lightly’ beat him up?

He says it was for vitamin supplements he was buying from them.

Yeah, wish it were televised...

What a creep; dragging this guy through the mud like this.

Is this the same white guy(s) in MAGA hat(s) shouting out “This is MAGA country!” that committed the racist white supremasist hate crime that the popo didn’t find credible that Smollett paid with a check to do while he was out in bitter cold wee hours buying Subway that he must love so much he could be a spokesman for the sammich maker?

Looks a lot like the white privileged smash and grabbers that keep beating up Asians to me.

Must be true...

The perps are black and apparently gay, so what’s the hate crime? Actor discrimination?

“But all he has to do is create a reasonable doubt in some weak minded juror.”

Not that I care about Jussie Swallowit, but this could be a legal strategy.

Since you KNOW that you are guilty and KNOW they have OVERWHELMING incriminating evidence, what do you do?

Of course, you plead guilty and throw yourself on the mercy of the court.

BUT, you are an ACTOR (like Alec Baldwin). So you get yourself on the grand stage of public opinion and ACT!

Cry, I didn’t do it, it was someone else’s fault, they are out to get me ‘cause I’m Black and LGBT (Alec can’t use those two).

Then, buy a juror, hope for a hung jury (NOT that type of “hung” Jussie).

Maybe a mistrial? Then if convicted, free on bail while waiting on his appeals. Rinse, repeat.

Stay out of jail until you get lucky. Could take YEARS!

“I can’t go to prison! I’ve heard they (all MALE prison population) do perverted SEXUAL things to you there!

Wait... aren’t those the exact things that I LOVE to do?

LOCK ME UP!

So Jussie, how has your first year in prison treated you?

I can’t believe all the GREAT SEX I get in here! I hope I NEVER get out!

I think the 2 trials were planned to be simultaneously tried at the same time to make sure Ghallane Maxwells trial was over shadowed by this dumbasses trial. I mean this fool shouldn't even be on trial. Its a distraction that Dave Chapelle already tore to pieces https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wZXoErL2124

My only question is based on Smollett's own testimony that two white supremacists in MAGA hats approached him and said, "Hey, you're that actor from 'Empire', ain't ya?"

Question: How could anyone believe two 'white supremacists' actually watch 'Empire' enough to recognize Jussie Smollett?

The sequel will be Jussie being attacked by Harry and Megan while they were taking Archie out for a midnight stroll. Everyone needs their 15 minutes these days.

Plan A: People believe the hoax. Fail
Plan B: Get cover from correctly placed officials. Fail
Plan C: Lie and make up stories about everytime. Hope it’s enough for an insanity plea.

Well it’s a brilliant hate crime.

First you get Smollett to pay you for some reason.
Then you get him to rehearse an attack scene.
Then you attack him for real.
And when he complains you say he hired you.
And all the evidence supports your claim and makes him look like a hateful idiot.
Well done! Brilliant actually!!

he hate crime he suffered was real and carried out by brothers Abimbola and Olabinjo Osundairo.

So, I'm assuming they had their MAGA hats on too, right Juicy?

O.J. say he know, man, he know.

That's right. He only needs one with reasonable doubt. And it is a pretty good bet with the O.J. trial kept in mind.

I’ll mention that the jury is six men and six women, only one of which is black.

The cross examination should be fun.

Smollett should have pleaded insanity.

That’s not in itself illegal, but making a false police report is certainly illegal.
