Jussie Smollett calls attackers 'liars,' defense rests
The Hill ^ | 12/07/2021 | MONIQUE BEALS

Posted on 12/07/2021 1:07:39 PM PST by ChicagoConservative27

The defense for former "Empire" actor, Jussie Smollett, rested their case on Tuesday after Smollett testified that the brothers involved in what prosecutors argued was a feigned hate crime were "liars."

"They're liars," Smollett said of the brothers as he testified on Tuesday, according to NBC News. "They also said I had something to do with it, and I didn't."

The prosecution has argued that Smollett staged a “fake hate crime” against himself by hiring two brothers, Abimbola and Olabinjo Osundairo, to stage a fake attack against him in 2019.

Ummmm, didn’t someone happen to tell Juicy that there’s a video of the crime walk-thru?

LOL!

This can sum up pretty much any case: “Defendant(s) calls prosecutor/plantif ‘liars,’ defense rests”

He had sex with the attackers. He did drugs with the attackers, and then those 2 Nigerians turned around, put on MAGA hates and became White Supremacists who hated blacks and gays. Clearly this happened. Clearly this is not a hoax.

I say: this guy is toast.

The entire current administration and their spokespeople make up an entirely false narrative every day and nobody calls them on it, so why wouldn’t Juicy? Perfectly sensible.

Justice for Juicy!

I cannot read or hear about this case without thinking of the Chappelle routine.

Juicy should have sent the file with evidence to Hunter Bidens email address. It would never see the light of review.

The only way his defense makes any sense is if he "fixed" a few members of the jury. I would not be surprised by a hung jury, it's the Chicago way.

This filthy sodomite is a complete degenerate and the sight of him makes me want to vomit.

He is the progeny of the same scumbag leftists who believe they are immune from the consequences of their actions.

I hope he gets the max jail time.
