BREAKING NEWS.
Fox 32 reporter Rafer Weigel said Saturday afternoon that Chicago police sources confirmed detectives were able to show that the Nigerian brothers who were “persons of interest” and questioned by police, bought the rope found around Jussie Smollett’s neck at Ace hardware.
Jussie Smollett alleged two white Trump supporters violently attacked him at 2 AM in the streets of Chicago when he was walking home from Subway with a sandwich in his hand.
Smollett told police the attackers were white and hurled homophobic and racial slurs at him while they beat him, poured bleach on him then put a noose around his neck.
Strangely, Mr. Smollett still had the rope around his neck when the police arrived to his apartment to take a report of the attack.
According to Rafer Weigel, the Nigerian brothers agreed to cooperate with police after the police threatened to charge them with battery.
“There are unconfirmed reports that Smollett paid the two brothers to perform the alleged scheme,” Rafer Weigel reported.

Now, who could sue this guy for defamation of character of Trump supporters? I guess being charged with a hoax crime will have to suffice - and he sure as heck better be charged!!!
Been there. Just passin’ through. LOL!
Did the Nigerian Bros. then give the rope to the white, redneck Trump supporters who beat up Jussie, or did the white, redneck Trump supporters take it from them?
The city of Chicago has spent a lot of money on this hoax. In addition to prosecuting Smollett, he should be made to reimburse the city for the cost of the investigation.
I missed that. Do you have a link?
Apparently the faker also sent a letter and made a claim he received a threat via the mail.
The feds are involved.
Rahm would have just dropped it. FBI involvement. Look for federal charges.
“This is MaGA country!”
Wonder if we will get apolgies from all the leftist politicians and actors?
Yep..an insurance policy..they probably also have the receipts from ACE hardware for the rope and bleach too..some were speculating yesterday, since the cops found bleach in Smollett’s apartment, so what, EVERYONE has bleach, yeah but if these two nigerian brothers told the cops exactly WHERE in his apartment to locate the bleach, it means they were IN his apartment
Yep isnt it a federal offense to send a fake threat in the mail

Follow this person on twitter he’s been spot on since day 1
Or charity work for the Kamala Harris election campaign. :)
The suspect alleged more than than bleach and the noose. This SOB alleged they also physically assaulted him. I’d charge that Smollett moron with the maximum penalties.
And it will be interesting if the scum in Hollywood put this lying AH back to work.

that’s one i hadn’t heard. thanx.
I wonder why the Chicago PD let the Nigerians go ?
If they go back to Nigeria, no corroboration ?

Not the best source, but the reporters tweets are over at Twitchy
Yes.
I guess the nigerians haven't seen a TV show since the '70s.
Letters cut out of a magazine and glued to a note?
Gee, I think that was pretty much "stale" by the time Quincy, M.E. came out.
And BTW, this is how Smollett will actually have to pay for his crimes.
Chicago won't do jack squat.
But terroristic threats sent by mail makes it a Federal case.
Throw *that* into Rosenstein's lap and watch his flop sweat.
What do you mean, Rod, you're not prosecuting?
Don't you CARE about victims of hate crimes?
Ace Hardware
Well, there you have it. There can be no greater proof of white nationalist MAGA racism !
So why did he leave the noose around his neck? To impress his BFF?
It would have been more realistic and dramatic to use a hemp rope prop instead of clothesline.
Could be the lighting, but those two Nigerian boys sure look white to me.
