They definitely do care. They’ve been out en force trying to convince everyone that this was a hoax. They want to use the incident to paint liberal “social justice warriors” as trigger happy nutcases always using rightwingers as phantom boogeyman. So fuck you for your failure to understand that.

Chicago probably has more security cameras than anywhere outside of the Pentagon, yet the only thing they can can come up with is two random people out walking about the time of the "attack.". Even if Smollett's story didn't sound ridiculously implausible, and even if every other hyped hate crime didn't turn out to be a hoax, you'd think at least someone noticed two white guys in MAGA hats at 3 AM in a majority black neighborhood, even if they managed to evade all the cameras.

[QUOTE]The woman -- who asked us not to use her name -- tells TMZ, she walked out of the building at 12:30 AM Tuesday to take her dogs out and saw the man near the door, pacing between the parking garage and entrance, looking agitated and smoking a cigarette. She says, "He looked out of place." He was a white man with scruff on his face wearing a blue winter beanie, a blue zip-up sweatshirt with a hood and blue jeans that were too short, exposing "thick, grey hunting socks" with camel-colored dress shoes.
[QUOTE]She says she noticed what looked like a rope, or a clothesline, protruding from the bottom of his sweatshirt, made of white and blue material.
[QUOTE]She says he was staring at another man about 300 feet away, who was standing near another entrance to the building.

With such a vivid description, the cops should have no trouble identifying the "redneck" from the footage from cameras that are almost certainly mounted all over that parking garage. A white guy so underdressed for the subzero temperatures would stick out like a sore thumb.

R35 According to Jussie, there were specific remarks about his being a cast member of Empire.
If he was actually attacked, by the two,shadows or the rope-bearing "redneck", doesn't it seem likely it wasn't a random attack? Too bad for us doubting folks that a fantasy attack is still on the table as a possibility. Assuming he really was jumped, and the letter he got recently is related,, throwing out "MAGA country" (what a bizarre phrase, never heard anynTrumpaloons use it) seems to me more like a way cover tracks and hide motive (and therefore identification)
Did he owe money? have a music deal go pear shaped?
Why did Jussie tweet "frauds are everywhere" - had he had some dealings with people that didn't go well?

My vote's something happened. Whether it was a hate crime as described or something less obvious masked as a hate crime, I don't know if we'll ever know. But I don't see how it's a hoax (aka total fabrication).
OK, I've never heard anybody use MAGA Country as a shout out, either, but, hand to God, I've never heard anybody actually yell Allahu Akbar, either. And that happens. Maybe it'll be the new yell since Lock Her Up's likely to be retired this election cycle.
R32 R34 R36 I don't know where I read it, but someone mentioned Smollett had voiced anti-Trump stuff online and became a sort of anti-celebrity in the alt-right. Which could explain how he even got on their radar.

The online reaction to this story proves the Internet was a mistake. The immediate denial from alt right trolls is expected but the eagerness from other black and gay people to dismiss this story is totally bizarre. You skim over the basic facts of the case, spread misinformation that was never reported (the attackers wore MAGA hats, he spent 3 hours in a noose before calling police etc) then turn around and say "hmm... this seems fishy to me".
You could be given clear footage of the attack and I'm sure you'd still call it fake. Its so transparent what you're doing here and why you don't really give a shit why he was attacked.

No, it’s really not, R50. There’s a reason that this story is being met with a healthy dose of skepticism, and it’s because it doesn’t ring true. Just because he’s an actor on a fading Fox show doesn’t protect him from the scrutiny any other wild claims would receive. If it turns out it was true then it’s horrifying, but the police and officials are preparing people that it may not be true because it doesn’t pass their smell test.

Some clarification on the noose from the Chicago Tribune (in case these details mean something) -
Guglielmi (Chicago Police Spokesman) said footage from the apartment building is sharp and shows Smollett walking in with a white rope around his neck. “We can confirm that, yeah, it was a rope, tied as a noose. It was tied that way,’’ he said. “You can tell it’s a rope tied as a noose.’’
Forty minutes later, as officers responded with their body cameras turned on, Smollett still had the rope around his neck, but it was untied.
“It was draped around his neck still, but it’s not fashioned as a noose,” Guglielmi said. “It was loosely dangling rope.” Officers took the rope and some of Smollett’s clothing as evidence.

It was early reported that he had a broken rib. Then the CPD said there were no medical reports of such thing. And now his camp says he'll be performing this Saturday in WeHo. So no broken rib nor "brutal attack", all we've seen is a scratch on his face. Still no details about the rope or the "liquid". He was allegedly off-camera for aprox. 1 minute. He was reportedly on the phone with his manager during the attack but no call to 911, from him or from his manager. He went back to his friend's building, didn't say a thing to a security guard on his way there or something either. Then after calling the police he didn't want body cams and refused to turn over his phone. He'll have to talk to the media eventually, and a media availability event will be held tomorrow by the CPD (of course everyone will be there to ask about this case).

I don't think it's cut and dried that this is a hoax. Video shows that he enters the apartment building with a noose and rock salt on his jacket. He was only off camera for a minute. That doesn't sound like a Grindr hookup gone wrong. It's pretty unlikely he's just walking around with a noose waiting to stage this. Also, if this were a complete hoax, it would have collapsed much more quickly.
That said, I'm skeptical that MAGA fans are roaming the streets of Chicago in subzero temps with bleach and rope looking for B-list stars. I think these were two drunken yahoos with whom he got in a scuffle and pushed him down (rock salt). He grabbed a drawstring off their hoodie/sweatpants or it came off him. And he tied it around his neck for some reason. He or his manager concocted everything else for publicity.

It would kill his career and platform. There aren’t many mainstream openly gay black male celebrities, and we don’t need him discredited. Also, this is one of the first timed I’ve seen society rally behind an openly gay black man. It’s great to see black people loving and accepting a black gay man.

It’s also weird that two racist, homophobic MAGA assholes would have enough knowledge about a black show to recognize a relatively minor actor (not Terrence Howard or Taraji Henson) in it and know that he and the character are gay.

He didn't call the police until almost 45 minutes after the alleged "attack." Numerous cameras in the area have come up with nothing but a dark image of two individuals simply walking along the sidewalk. You can't tell if they're black or white, male or female. He refuses to turn over his cell phone to the authorities in order to expedite the investigation.

If he was attacked where did they go? Did they DIDSAPPEAR into the mist? They have him on video going to the building, an alleged 60 second blind spot, but then see him going into the building.
Where did the attackers approach the blind spot from? Where did they go AFTER? Not into the building, and not the way he came.
That’s why I don’t believe this and won’t. It’s common sense.

(If you aren’t familiar, Sherri was a pretty petite blonde who was “abducted” by two masked Latinas! The whole thing stunk to high heaven and there was quite a circus about it for awhile. Two “Latinas” were just cruising around rural bumfuck (actual MAGA country; it’s all white folk there) at 11:00am, hoping to catch a pretty little blonde out jogging on the country roads.

Reminds me of that case in Vancouver WA about 10 years ago, where a white woman claimed a black woman threw acid in her face. She also gave a excessively detailed description of the alleged attacker, who mysteriously didn't appear in any surveillance footage or was seen by anyone else. That alone raised suspicions, as Vancouver is one of the whitest towns in America and a black woman there would be noticeable just by being unusual, but the acid burns didn't look like they resulted from the kind of attack she described and the whole thing fell apart pretty quickly.

Jussie Smollett was blunt, emotional and defiantly determined Saturday night at a Southern California concert some urged him not to play, telling the crowd before singing a note that he had to go on with the show because he couldn’t let his attackers win.
“The most important thing I can say is ’thank you so much, and I’m OK,” said the “Empire” actor and R&B singer from the stage at the Troubadour in West Hollywood in his first public appearance since he reported to police in Chicago on Tuesday that two masked men had assaulted him and put a rope around his neck while using homophobic and racial slurs.
“I had to be here tonight, y’all. I couldn’t let those (expletives) win,” he said to screams and cheers from the packed room of about 400 people. “I will always stand for love. I will only stand for love.”
by Anonymous | reply 269 | February 3, 2019 12:39 PM |
Smollett kept the tone mostly celebratory through his hour-long set before addressing the attack head-on toward the end of his hour-long set, when he told the crowd he wanted to clarify a few things.
He said he was bruised but his ribs were not cracked. He went straight to the doctor but was not hospitalized, and physicians in both Chicago and Los Angeles cleared him to play but told him to be careful.
“And above all, I fought the (expletive) back,” he said to cheers.
Then he paused and said, emphatically but with a laugh, “I’m the gay Tupac.”

For sure, it wasn't an elaborate hoax. At most, it was a spontaneous hoax, which would still get him in a lot of trouble.
This was not a big-time hoax that was well planned. But it could have been a minor scuffle or slight that he embellished. So technically, it "happened." Maybe he got sick of being the target of death threats, and then someone on the street that night said something to him (f*ggt, n*ggr) or touched him in a way made him feel threatened, but did no real harm to his person or his sandwich. He goes into a rage when he gets home and reports an assault which he embellishes with details to make it clear that he's the suffering hero.
So something could have happened, and it's a horrible injustice, but only in his mind and not to anyone else who might have witnessed it, including the security cameras. That wouldn't make it okay or make the embellishment less criminal, but it would make it understandable. Maybe he didn't make it up from whole cloth. Maybe he used real sandwich wrappers.

They may have been racists (although "Empire" watching, TMZ following racists, to be sure), but they know a well constructed sandwich when they see one! They did deploy the noose they conveniently had on their persons to demonstrate their dislike of his race, and they otherwise did commit some violence upon him to evidence their disapproval of his sexual orientation, but all the while they were careful not to disturb the sanctity of the hero sandwich. Kudos for that at least.

R354 To be fair, Jussie has given very few details himself, which makes it very disingeuous for him to complain about misinfornation coming out about the attack. Maybe if he had told the full story a week ago instead of hiding, there wouldn't be so much rumor and conjecture going on,

I'm sure he was reluctant. Smollett would have still gotten a lot of traction if he'd claimed to be the victim of a hate crime without getting the police involved. Without police involvement, the invisibility of the "attackers" wouldn't be known to the general public. Smollett could have milked this thing to kingdom come with no risk of the hoax being found out.

Quotes from the SJW at Ohnotheydidnt comment section...
'At this point it’s easier to believe half of those comments are from trolling Russian hackers but I know it’s all just bitter hate that’s been waiting in the wings since the civil rights movement and even way back to the civil war that’s all just been swept under the rug under the guise of social acceptability and “progression”....
'Are you really surprised, though? White people jump at any opportunity to gaslight people of color and insist that racism doesn't exist.'...
"Between the rise in hate crimes, the gaslighting, and these shooting sprees that have gone unreported by the media because this shit is so normalized now, I want to get out of this country so bad."...
'As if I, as a black gay man, need even more reasons to never want to leave my house except when going to my mom's, work, my grandmother's nursing home, or grocery/supply stores'...
'This crime is so blatantly racist and homophobic that it sounds like it's from a movie scene, but, it's one of those things where it's sadly (I feel) way more common than what is being reported. All the non-famous Jussie Smollett's in the world who have suffered makes my head & heart hurt. (ALSO, the CPD, no matter how famous you are, won't do shit. Especially under Rahm's rule and his fucking pointless wasteful "policy academy" budget, it is a perfect example of a group who support white supremacy. Laquan McDonald for example (despite his murderer's conviction)).'...
' I am fucking over people always casting doubt over a victim's statements. Enough already. Do your goddamn job right CPD and "journalists". ...
'we need to do better than expect the master propagandists of racism and homophobia "denounce" this.'....
'Fuck every person, regardless of race, sexual orientation, gender identity, or political affiliation, that says he's lying. Fuck them all.'
'I absolutely am not bringing kids into this racist world, I cannot consciously subject others to something I don’t enjoy myself...'
'i think about this fact too. every police department in this country is full of white supremacy. I don't think this is going to be a high priority for CPD....'
'White people are always afforded so much doubt. It’s why they know they can do whatever they want. So many failsafes setup in society for them. On every. level...'
'Yeah, the CPD are corrupt pieces of shit so no surprise there...'
'Fuck off with that possible bullshit. They had a noose....
'fuck this country and fuck white people. you guys fucking did this. white people are 100% responsible for Trump. ya'll are some bitch ass cowards who can't even delete your racist aunts or friends from high school, why the fuck would I expect any of you to do your part and stop your stupid ass white brethren from ruining the rest of our lives? I'm so sick of this shit. WHITE PEOPLE DO SOMETHING OTHER THAN MAKE COMMENTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT HOW SAD YOU ARE THAT THIS HAPPENED!...
'I love that they will be responsible for the destruction of the country they claim they love. Look at what you allowed to be entered into history books across the globe for the rest of eternity. Enjoy your legacy....
'SAY IT LOUDER FOR PEOPLE IN THE BACK!!!!! White people made sure the idea and image of black organized group carrying around guns out in the open during a time when extreme violence against them was still socially acceptable was a threat to national security. That you were a terrorist if you were a black panther but the KKK still exists. It’s still socially acceptable for white people to march in a group toting their guns despite it being THE TRUE IMAGE OF TERROR. White people have been terrorizing this country and the people of color in it since the day they landed here. This presidenancy has literally unraveled any progress that big movements and leaders like MLK LOST THEIR LIFE FOR. It’s sickening. Black history month is nearly here and we get to start it with this bullshit.'...

I don't know what I could have done to stop two Trump supporters 1,000 miles away from doing this. I try to speak out as loudly as possible whenever I see racism and discrimination, and I know many other white people who do the same. We do everything we can to oppose Trump and his supporters whenever we can, as vocally as we can. Is it enough? Obviously not, since they are still making life scary for a whole lot of people. But we are trying. My family aren't Trump supporters, but I have two former friends who did vote for him, and I did cut them out of my life.

He was a victim, TRUE, but the whole thing happened because Jussie was duped to meeting up on Grindr. He most likely was catfished and thought he was going to meet a nice muscle god with 10 inches/total top. He was lured in by the perps, but he still should be upfront on how this all happened and ASSIST the police with all his GRINDR info to better catch these people.
Jussie does not want his reputation to be known as a GRINDR SLUT, that is what the deal is. That is why he doesn't want to give up his GRINDR password or assist with the information. Meanwhile it is making a capture that much harder and more expensive for TAXPAYERS, Thanks Jussie.

If I'm in a hookup gone bad, and I come out with my wallet, phone, and a little scratch, I'm not immediately going to cry racist or even homophobe attack, it's calling attention to something I don't want to call attention. I'm not saying it couldn't have happened, this is so weird that anything is possible --but it's not the obvious explanation everybody makes it out to be.

The biggest indicator (to me) that the public, black and white, have accepted this as a hoax is that there are absolutely no advocacy groups screaming bloody murder for the perp/s to be caught and dealt with in the criminal justice system.
I have not heard a peep from BLM, GLAAD or any of the usual suspects. That(again to me) signals that everyone wants this to die a quiet death in order to save him and them for embarrassment. They don't want this to be another Jazmine in Houston situation.
I want it to become public knowledge because he has fomented racial hate where it did not exist. However, I do not wish to see him punished in any way...just an admission that the story was bogus.

Subpoenaing records from companies is so common in criminal and civil cases that they have specific departments to handle the requests. Of course it was important for CPD to verify the facts that they could, esp when Smollett and his mgr suddenly refused to provide access to their phones. It is only a probable cause standard.
It would be expected in this case, and per sources, the records were subpoenaed. So now they have his redacted version and also have or soon will, a complete record.

Was the letter part of a separate plot and he or his friends decided to take the bad date punch in the face and make it related? Seems like the punch in the face would have had to have been planned, he had the rope with him and all. There are only 60 seconds he is not on camera and to think he fought off a violent attack in that short time, whilst hanging onto his phone and sandwich seems a bit far fetched.
He was not just spinning a bad date, the letter factors in. Wonder if he will get a criminal sentence or if he will get off on a mental health claim? Now he is going around saying he is the gay Tupac. Tupac was not straight, so WTF is he talking about? Dude seems to like the higher profile.

It would be expected that law enforcement subpoena the records from the cell carriers in this matter when the parties did not allow access to the phones directly. A probably cause standard is all that is needed for a warrant and it is routinely granted for something like this.
Did Jussie not expect that or for forensics to be used on the letter? Once a victim reports to the police, they have very little control over what happens and efforts to verify details will be undertaken.

Lying about things like his ribs or withholding his phone really diminished his credibility. With the only time off camera just 60 seconds, it would be quite difficult for all that to occur, esp since his hands were full of a phone and a sandwich. The record cold, well below zero, makes it even harder to imagine that people just happened to be out and about. Maybe they were all on drugs and not thinking clearly. What kind of reputation does his manager have?
I really think it will be the letter that brings him down. They may have linked him to the purchase of the rope as well.

The Chicago Tribune has more detail on the phone records.
He seems to be hiding something.

"...But police described Smollett’s phone records as a heavily redacted document file and his manager’s records as a screenshot of phone calls that provide limited information to investigators. Chief police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said police were “appreciative” of Smollett’s cooperation in providing the records but said detectives will likely need additional data from Smollett to crack the case.
A representative for Smollett wasn’t immediately available for comment."

Sure You Did These goofs must have gone to the "Flint Taylor School of Evidence Manufacturing" The New York Post has dispatched several reporters to Chicago to retrace Smollett’s steps in the minutes before the alleged attack. Last week, one of them discovered a hot sauce bottle that smelled like bleach near where Smollett said he was attacked.
The bottle was turned over to Chicago Police for analysis. Investigators have already conducted several canvasses of the area and Guglielmi on Monday said it was not clear if the bottle was “connected or not connected” to the alleged attack. The D-Unit has been retracing his steps for two weeks now, looking for evidence and video, all of which have popped up as negative. We're to believe that a coupe reporters, unfamiliar with Chicago, especially of the environs of Lower North Water Street and just happen upon a bottle of hot sauce that smelled like bleach weeks after the alleged incident. Ten bucks if it exists, it was planted in the last few days.
By the way, the initial word from the lab is not one single usable print. Who would have thunk it?

R570 he’s too smug and too much of a narcissist to kill him self. He’ll blame mental illness and say he felt in fear of his life because of the white devil in the White House. The media will give him a pass because he’s black and LGBTQGGSHYIOVDEXXMJ.

Wow, I just read the piece in The Grio linked above. Even though the author's intention was to raise some ire that CPD was threatening prosecution IF it was found to be a hoax(the author's point was that there was zero reason to think it was a hoax) the replies were 100% anti-Jussie as a real victim.
He has clearly lost the straight black community.

The bottle of bleach was likely used by a junkie to clean needles.

R578 thinks black people are too weak and fragile to be called out on their shit like everyone else is when they do stupid shit. Why do you hold blacks to a lower standard, R578?
Meanwhile, if you want to see actual racism, check out any Asian-related thread on this site.

Who did Jussie pay to "doctor" his phone records?
And that wasn't bleach, it was semen.

I think the police know semen when they see it. 🙄

Addicts use bleach to clean their needles. Doubt the bottle was any more than that, or it was planted. Given the cold, few prints could be gloves, but no prints is suspicious.
He lied about so many easily disproved things - like broken ribs. When you are going to sing, gonna have to walk that back. The phone call but then they withhold the phones. They can subpoena the records from the carrier. Sending the letter through the mail is a federal thing, the studio buying off cops to sweep this all under the rug will not fix that.

The fact that Jussie's pinned tweet at the top of his Twitter page is promoting his debut album which is released next week says it all. PUBLICITY STUNT!

If he’s lying then it’s not a “publicity stunt,” it’s a crime.

Some of his friends are even now questioning the legitimacy of his story. And the police can find no solid evidence of any kind, not even a tad on any surveillance video.

Sixty seconds out of camera range is plenty of time to yank a "noose" out of your winter coat, throw it around your neck and give yourself a cute little scratch on the cheek with a hang nail.

Don't forget the salad, R592.
Try to picture Jussie talking on the phone to his manager with one hand and holding his tuna sub and salad in the other all while busting his best Van Damme moves on his invisible (to the cameras anyway) attackers. And all in exactly sixty seconds. He's so fucking butch!

R538’s linked story was written by Gabrielle Fonrouge. She also wrote about the Sherri Papini hoax - the pretty young white mommy who was ABDUCTED BY TWO LATINAS and had her beautiful blonde hair chopped off. Ahem.
Ms. Fonrouge knows from hoaxes.
