Is “Empire” star Jussie Smollett about to be charged with lying about alleged ‘MAGA’ attackers?
The National Sentinel ^ | 2/6/19 | J. D. Heyes

In the days since “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett claimed he was physically assaulted as he ventured out in sub-zero temperatures around 2 a.m. in Chicago to get a Subway sandwich, there have been elements of his story that have either been questionable or have not added up.

Smollett, 35, one of the actors on the Fox television hit, told police the morning after the alleged attack that he was set upon by two people who yelled racial and homophobic slurs during the assault and wrapped a rope around his neck while dousing him in bleach.

As The New York Times reported, Chicago PD said they were investigating the alleged assault as a “possible hate crime.”

He’s in a very special protected group. He checks all of the boxes.

So...nothing will happen to the scumbag.

I hope the article is right and you are wrong, but I expect the opposite.

I have very low expectations on this sort of thing.

That would be amazing if a fake hate crime celebrity got arrested.

He’s sort of like the Democrat politician, who is not resigning despite the blackface photo in the yearbook.

Could just be, we’ve bottomed out.

I dunno. I’ve had a funny feeling that this thing is going to turn out differently than Jussie planned...

you can pretty much tell that it was a hoax, it is already disappearing as a story. Next week it will be denied that he made such charges.

Chicago Police have been badly bloodied by accusations of racism, some warranted, some not. They will have no hesitation to calling this hoax out for what it is, but only after having plowed the ground repeatedly, and gradually introducing the element of reasonable doubt as details continue to fall apart.

Once the facts are established, I think they will want some skin from this fraud.

Charge him to the fullest extent of the law and then convict and sentence him.

Sure hope so.

Plus inciting violence between groups, hate crime against whites, hate crime against Trump supporters, defaming a city, conspiracy with his manager, and anything else they can charge him with.
