Jussie Smollett testifies
2021-12-07
CHICAGO (AP); Former "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett denied Monday that he staged an anti-gay, racist attack on himself in downtown Chicago, testifying at his trial that "there was no hoax."
Smollette claims:

the money paid the brothers was for drugs
the brothers hoped to extort $1M each from him
one of the brothers was his sex and drug buddy

#7  In the fabulous but impenetrable novel Infinite Jest, the character Tiny is working in a prison halfway house and amuses himself by collecting images of jailhouse tattoos. One individual passing thru has a tattoo that is misspelled, "F*ck Nigers."

#4  action for today as defense rests

tomorrow (Wed) will be prosecution and defense summary and jury instructions

maybe jury deliberations in the pm, maybe deliberations start thursday

I suspect that Jussie is an embarrassment to most of the leftists and a contemptible phony to most everyone else but who knows.

#3  The media take on all this, of course, will be that it's "gay bashing" to make this guy discuss the milieu that presented the ingredients for this event.

#2  smollett testimony continued this am

an amusing incident happened during cross examination - the prosecutor read verbatim some of Smolletts texts in which Smollette uses the N word

Smollette asked if the prosecutor would elide it and the prosecutor said, 'no - these are your words and if I change them they aren't your words'

Perjury, filing a false police report,inciting Racial Disturbances resulting in numerous injuries, private and public property damages, wasting 100's if not 1000's of hours of Law Enforcement time needed by real victims, falsifying a Hate Crime for personal profit or gain.

If done by by 70+% of America.
They would be looking at likely 3 to 20 years.

When done by a Famous Liberal Black Homosexual Actor that is BLM and Democrat.
What? A large $$$$ fine and a couple 100 hours of community service "related" activities (usually PSA's).
