Jussie Smollett now claims he's 'real victim': New details | LiveNOW from FOX

Jussie Smollett's trial is underway in Chicago, as prosecutors told jurors that the former "Empire" actor recruited two brothers who worked with him on the show to help him carry out the fake attack. Meanwhile, Smollett's attorneys claim the two brothers attacked Smollett because they didn't like him and that there is not a "shred" of physical and forensic evidence linking Smollett to the crime prosecutors allege. Smollett is charged with felony disorderly conduct and could face up to three years in prison.

He's as guilty as they come. He should be brought up on federal charges as well.

[chadbrick]

Penitentiary is the only solution what he did is vile beyond words

[leonardsmith]

BuBba Wallace should be in the courtroom for support.

[drasticfisher]

Another “Victim” of the TRUTH!!
🇺🇸LETS GO BRANDON!!🇺🇸

[whoknows]

He should have to not only pay back the police department, but make annual donations to the police department along with a donation to the Republican Party and last but not least, NASCAR. About the only white sport I can think of. Since he claimed this was all racial driven and later found out it wasn't, he should have to pay the price. BUT, being a jogger in this day and age with the administration this country has as well, sure he'll be invited to the White House (can I still say that), and Brandon will tell the country to protest quietly. Bunch of bs is what it is!!! If a white person had done this, yeah, blm, black panthers and any other jogger domestic terrorist groups be burning the rest of this country to the ground.

[colehara]

Makes me wonder how often this type of thing happens.

[Randy-mdxl]

He needs prison time for a hate crime.

[jasonwebster]

Exactly who will Smollet call as a witness? The guys he paid said it was all manufactured and no one else was involved.
