Hail Mary Phone call for Smollett

[zelmo]

How many of these stories has the media snapped on only to be found out to not be true. This guy should be in jail. Probably end up with a new TV show out of it. Only in Merica.

Well he will at least get a show on MSNBC. They can put him on right after Al Sharpton.

Lying for an agenda should be a crime, no matter what office you hold or how famous you are.

Am I the only one who had never even heard of this guy until the story broke?

There is an old Hollywood saying "Any publicity is good publicity". I truly believe they live by it.

Never heard of him, but he needs to pay for his elaborate stunt. Rosanne was shamed for a comment she made, this fool pulls this stunt causing many hours on police behalf for a wild goose chase. He should be charged and issued fines for court cost, police man hours.

He should get the beating he claimed he got as punishment.

Honestly we are kidding ourselves if we think anything is going to happen. Ive seriously lost faith in our justice system and agencies to do the right thing (not political thing). We have a formal candidate that is walking the streets that broke several laws (and you know why), we have the FBI that absolutely was politicized (see the latest news about Macabe ie treason), the Covington kids were proven to not be the instigators in the story recently (cricket). Regardless of party affiliation, this should scare the shit out of every red blooded American. Political parties be damned this is the biggest threat to our Republic.

The news at noon said they are still pursuing a grand jury. He has some new hot shot lawyer that has taken up his case now though. Might be why everything was put on hold yesterday. Still don't think anything will come of it.

The Washington Post is being sued on behave of the covington teen.

maybe the feds wont plea they are in on the investigation too and the US attorney is a Trump appointee.

Thought i saw a blip that the prosecuter recused herself, wouldn't give a reason. Also this is not Smollett's first false reporting as he had one in California some time back.

Thinking there's a better than even chance that his name morphs into a verb in the lexicon; much the way "Grubered" came into being.

That story simply says that the brothers did not testify before the grand jury today because of a phone call. I saw earlier today that the grand jury testimony would happen if he refused to submit to an interview. It could be that the phone call is just setting up that interview.

Don't jump to conclusions yet.

This is a prime example of how the MSM twists a statement to fit a narrative. Harvey Levin of TMZ specifically stated this morning on Fox that “the only way Smollett would come out of this hoax without a grand jury being convened was IF his defense team was able to present some sort of Hail Mary”, and then that he didn’t think it was possible. Two hours later some of the news outlets had twisted that into the narrative that the Smollett defense team had done just that.
It’s all complete BS to punch the “conversation” along. And I just read the CPD has a dozen detectives assigned to this case. Ridiculous, and a waste of time when they could be solving one of the 18-19 Maurer’s committed since this ruse began in January.

Yeah, I stopped watching 60 minutes when they started spending most they’re time interviewing the lastest book whore on tour. After last Sunday’s interview I’m definitely not a fan anymore. Sensationalism without journalism. Pathetic.

To address a few, i never heard of him either, they threw Roseanne under the bus for this. R Roberts deserved it after pouting to liam neeson about how that hurt her, wonder if she called this pus and ate his az for playing her. And today DA recused, she has political aspirations. So she chickened out , Dems should have pressured her to stand her ground and do the right thing. Prosecute.

[Gaston Mike]

Story lead off tonight’s nightly news(NBC). They said he will be arrested. FYI

[local16]

Looks like they are going after this idiot. I had never heard of him before this and hope he gets burned for it.

[Beast]

He needs to be charged with a hate crime plain and simple .. if this did happen that’s what the charge would be to the offenders

I’m sure Sharpton told him not to worry .. he got away with the same scam

I agree
