If he were unhappy with his salary, then he should have done what most actors do in his situation: refuse to come into work until a new deal was negotiated.

 

 

What's there to talk about?  Tell his lying ass that Walmart's hiring and then show him the door!

 

 

+ 1.

 

 

Even culprits on "Murder, She Wrote" never left behind that much evidence!

 

 

That will go down in infamy right next to Whitney Houston and her crack receipts.

Remember that episode of "Designing Women" when Carlene's ex-husband, Dwayne Dobber, told Anthony he had polled all the African-American employees at his car dealership about the Rodney King verdict and asked him (Anthony) how he felt?  

 

The truth is, whenever one of us (meaning, an African-American) ends up in the news -- Jussie, Rodney, O.J., etc. -- white people rush to the rest of us immediately, pretending to care about what "we" think about the situation.

 

Seriously, white people, I love y'all, but I wish y'all would get it through your heads that our skin color does not always affect our way of thinking.  A Black man who gets caught paying off two Nigerians (with a damn check!) to beat his ass, throw a noose at him, and pour bleach (or bleach-like substance) on his head, just because he's unhappy about his paycheck, looks as ignorant to us as he does to y'all.

If this story wasn't so tragic, people would just be laughing at the total ineptitude of these three. The criminals on Scooby Doo were smarter than them. 

 

To answer a post upthread, I too remember On Our Own. The oldest sibling, dressed in drag to try to keep the family, looked a bit like Madea, years before Tyler Perry's movies came out.

They've already put out a story about how they were Jussie's personal trainer (implication: Jussie paid them for their services), but that still doesn't explain the phone calls and texts.
