Jussie Smollett, who is Black and gay, told Chicago police on Jan. 29, 2019, that he was attacked at around 2 a.m. by two men who hurled racial and homophobic slurs at him, wrapped a rope around his neck and poured a chemical — possibly bleach — over him. The former"Empire" actor said the alleged attack happened near his apartment in the upscale neighborhood of Streeterville.
Brothers Abimbola and Olabinjo Osundairo were arrested in February 2019 on suspicion that they may have been involved in a crime but were not charged in the attack and released. Police allege the brothers were hired by Jussie Smollett to stage the attack. Jurnee Smollett, 33, told The Hollywood Reporter that she was"already in a very dark space for a number of reasons" and tried to not let the scandal surrounding her brother make her"pessimistic.""We are blessed to have a community of people who know him," the actress told the outlet,"and know that he wouldn't do this."
At the time of the investigation, Chicago police said Jussie Smollett was unhappy with his salary on"Empire" and was attempting to gain public sympathy to boost his career.
I think this case has been SO overdone!!! I’m sure the guy regrets doing it and I seriously doubt he would ever do it again! Just leave him alone!!
That ship sailed already.
She means , Standing by her sister .
Yeah... She should probably give up on this one.
...why wouldn’t she lie for her brother. She is family. Asking her is kinda pointless
I dislike Jussie Smollett so much.
Antifa threatens & harasses an old lady in Portland while standing outside the police precinct, & MSM is silent about it. Instead posting this ridiculous bullshit no one gives two shits about.
Yawn
Oh that French dude
Great, now there are 2 idiots on the loose. Aside from Trump.
If that’s the case he probably file a lawsuit against Chicago PD and anyone else defamed him. We know Covington kid did it. Family stick together that’s all.
Arrest that liar. It has been proven that he lied. What kind of person would stoke the fires of racism by doing such a shameless ruse? An evil one.
😂😂
The evidence against him is overwhelming.
This is revisionist history, and willful ignorance on her part.
I wonder how big her cheque is from her brother
Lol
White men that work everyday sit around at lunch break trying to think of all the different ways they can keep minorities less superior ! They rub their fingers together and grin while doing so !
What do you expect her to say.
You’re the only one who believes him.
Jussie Smollet is guilty of faking a hate crime. In fact he should be charged with a hate crime for his attack on White American. Smollet should spend years in jail for his crimes, these fake hate crime that hurt those trying to justice for real hate crime.
Brainwashed liars
These 2 ss 🤡 need to go back to hell
What would expect her to say, and why would you even ask her? Don’t harass family members.
Ahaha he light skin anyway
Then she is either ignorant or complicit. My vote is ignorant.
Clowns
Wait that’s Bubba Wallace, no?
Subway......sandwiches?!
Remember when this was news? Yeah, at least the pandemic is good for something Aside: his sister is a 🦊
The only thing that is painful is listening to your and your brother lie. And the only hate crime committed here was committed by Jussie Smollett. Where is that Justice?
Family stick together he’s a great actor hopefully forgiven he will have more opportunities as an actor 🙏🏽♥️
Of course you do! He’s your bro right!
Looks like jessie and sister are try to get his face back In The media . When is this liars trial? Enough of giving this liar free media coverage. America sick of this liar just go away to prison already.

Jussie is a peice of 💩
Good sister got his back even though he’s guilty as hell.
Well, at the end of the day it's not like he was pushing a false narrative? He's just a actor with no ties to any politicians at all 😐. QAnons WWG1WGAWORLDWIDE HisNameWasSethRich
The left is so desperate that they have to fabricate their own hate crimes to get material
What was it you were buying at 2 AM Jussie? And wjo carries a noose in the middle of winter in the inner city? 2 losers no waiting
Jussie lied. Everyone knew he lied.
How about we talk about how she’s a dope actress and not an old as New Headline

nbc thinks this is important now you should understand the reason for low ratings
With that BS, she could get a job in the White House.
He’s GUILTY AS SIN...., SO SHUT UP AND NBC, you can STOP TRYING TO PUT ANITHER RACE CARD IN THIS
What else is she gonna do.. Pulling him down would be pulling the family name down and would not be good for business. Plus it’s family. She’ll stick by him. Doesn’t make him less of a liar, though...
She believes R Kelly can fly
Damn, right to the very end. She's not too bright, but then again, look what her RACIST brother did. sad pathetic
This was how long ago? What's the purpose of posting this?

Lying runs in the family, I guess.
Your brother created the scandal . Ask him why?

She should've beat him up herself after that BS stupid stunt he pulled.
I guess lying runs in the family.
