Jussie Smollett is staring at an indictment that could put him in jail for up to three years.
He has denied that he paid for and orchestrated an attack on himself, but Chicago police believe otherwise. Here is the latest evidence they have leaked.
A grand jury will hear the Jussie Smollett case early next week … law enforcement sources tell TMZ.
We’re told when police raided the home of the 2 brothers they found magazines with pages torn out, and authorities are now trying to determine if the missing pages are connected to the threatening letter that was sent to Jussie 8 days before the alleged attack.
The sources say there were red flags from the get go. Cops were extremely suspicious when Jussie took them out to the area where he said he was attacked and pointed to an obscure camera saying how happy he was that the attack was on video. Turns out the camera was pointing in the wrong direction. Cops thought it was weird he knew the location of that camera.
And there’s this. We’re told investigators didn’t believe the 2 alleged attackers screamed “This is MAGA country” because “Not a single Trump supporter watches ‘Empire.'”
Smollett is standing firm that he was attacked and is shocked the attackers were people he knew.
Public opinion is starting to turn against him and now no one is really coming out to support him. It will be very interesting to see how all this turns out.
