FULL TITLE:

Chicago Police release (comically unhelpful) photos of persons of interest in alleged Jussie Smollett attack; UPDATE

==================================================================

Well, this certainly narrows down the search to every male in the Chicago area. BE ON THE LOOKOUT FOR EVERYONE WALKING IN PAIRS AND DRESSED FOR WINTER!

From the Chicago PD:

Photos of people of interest who were in area of the alleged assault & battery of Empire cast member. While video does not capture an encounter, detectives are taking this development seriously & wish to question individuals as more cameras are being reviewed pic.twitter.com/xJDDygtocr

We don’t see any rope or bleach in the photos, but maybe that’s just us:

I’ve seen better photos of UFO’s (seriously).

And they still don’t have any video showing the attack:

New development in alleged assault on @EmpireFOX cast member @JussieSmollett — @Chicago_Police released these surveillance images of two people of interest. So far, no video released/found showing incident. Latest 11p @NBCPhiladelphia https://t.co/sFYDdxFoiJ

— Jim Rosenfield (@jimrosenfield) January 31, 2019

Police do admit the two might have absolutely nothing to do with the attack as well. From the Sun-Times:

“They could have been the perpetrators, they could have been witnesses, they could have been complete bystanders who didn’t see the incident at all,” Guglielmi said. “There are still a lot more cameras that we have to look at. It’s almost like a digital puzzle. You have to put all of those pieces together and kind of watch them at the same time.”

You know, video of Smollett after the attack would be interesting to see:

You want the public to help with that? Please release the video from his apt building. What on Earth are these stills supposed to be showing? Let's see him arriving home after the alleged attack. #jussiesmollett

We’ll keep you posted.

UPDATE.

NBC News reported this morning that there is video of Smollett entering the Subway before the alleged attack:

When this is finally revealed to be a HOAX, and it will be, will all these celebutards and polititards retract their hate filled racist comments?..................

I doubt it..................

All they need to do is concentrate on HIS hate filled twitter rants of our President and you’ll see the motive he is trying to accomplish IMHO...

I was assaulted by two men with Jim Acosta and Anderson Cooper tattoos and chanting “this is CNN country.”

they could have been complete bystanders who didn’t see the incident at all.

by·stand·er Dictionary result for bystander /ˈbīˌstandər/ noun.
plural noun: bystanders
a person who is present at an event or incident but does not take part.

Sigh.....

Withholding any final decision until all evidence presented.
But my take on this situation comes down to MAGA hat wearing, white assailants cruising with bleach and hangmans’ noose who watch ‘Empire’ being able to identify/ know who Jussie at 2am in Chicago doesn’t add up.

You are correct - they always manufacture a serious charge against Trump and his supporters, run hard to taint public opinion and then let it fade because they know it energizes the Dem base and facts have no effect on them when they become available..

No, it will be Trump’s fault for creating such a hateful environment that this poor della had no choice but to use his celebrity status to force a national discussion. He’s a hero! Meanwhile, I think it’s safe to update the list:

I think they looked hard to find two that could never be fully identified.

They figure that way the hoaxer will never have to recant.

If they find out the whole thing is a hoax, Smollett will be booted off Empire so fast he wouldn't know what happened.

Just bystanders? I don't think so. Here's the photo of the two suspects (really). As you can easily tell, they are white racists up to no good.

No one reports on the roving groups of blacks beating whites in the Chicago area and downtown.
