Members Juliajms Posted February 15, 2019 Members Share Posted February 15, 2019 This is really sad. First he was attacked and now these rumors are all over the internet smearing him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 15, 2019 Members Share Posted February 15, 2019 I think it’s possible that he was genuinely attacked, but that these Nigerian dudes (whom he knew) betrayed him. According to the Sun-Times, one of the guys was charged with attempted murder in 2011, pleaded guilty to aggravated battery, and got two years of probation and a fine. But who knows? We don’t have all of the facts yet. A lot of assumptions have been made based on hearsay from all angles, both from the left and the right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted February 16, 2019 Members Share Posted February 16, 2019 ^ I'm with you. It's not clear what happened, but I wish these media outlets hadn't put out that hoax story until the facts emerge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Soapsuds Posted February 16, 2019 Members Share Posted February 16, 2019 So did the guys spill and say it was staged? And why would Smollett need a lawyer? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 16, 2019 Members Share Posted February 16, 2019 We’ll see, but if you’re under investigation, it’s smart to get a lawyer, innocent or guilty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Taoboi Posted February 16, 2019 Members Share Posted February 16, 2019 Wow. This sounds crazy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted February 16, 2019 Members Share Posted February 16, 2019 One thing that I’m only seeing a little talk about: there are federal criminal ramifications if the powder in the envelope sent to Jussie on the Empire set was staged. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Soapsuds Posted February 16, 2019 Members Share Posted February 16, 2019 This is not looking good for him. They were the only ones seen on camera and had worked with him on Empire. It sure looks like he made the whole thing up....or planned it with their help.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Juliajms Posted February 16, 2019 Members Share Posted February 16, 2019 I just don't understand why he would do it. His statement didn't make sense though, I admit that. The part where he said he would be believed if he weren't accusing white guys, but then the "suspects" are black men that he knew? And he said he always knew it was them...what? Please register in order to view this content Fox seems to be denying that he was going to be written out, so I don't know. This is all very odd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
