Not that I know of. Around here they definitely aren't.

Maybe in Chicago they are.

The Chicago Police Department said 36-year-old Empire star Jussie Smollett told authorities he was assaulted early Tuesday morning by two suspects who yelled out “racial and homophobic slurs” before the attack. Smollett told police that the suspects hit him in the face around 2 a.m. and “poured an unknown chemical substance” on him, according to the statement. “At some point during the incident, one of the offenders wrapped a rope around the victim’s neck,” the police statement says. “The offenders fled the scene.” Smollett took himself to Northwestern Hospital and is in “good condition,” authorities said. Police say they are investigating the “possible racially-charged assault and battery” as a possible hate crime. Smollett has yet to comment on the alleged attack.

A Chicago Police spokesperson told The Daily Beast that the attackers’ genders are unknown, and that their faces and hands had been covered. TMZ reported that the attackers shouted “This is MAGA country,” but police told the Beast, “There is no report of that being said.”


How did he know they were white?


genders unknown?

Many of the posts on this thread are revolting. What happened to believing the victim? I could maybe understand a call to wait until further facts are disclosed but to take the facts as they are and conclude that they are just made up is ridiculous. I’m ashamed of you guys.

It is not disbelieving the victim.

It is not believing the reporting.

TMZ made up things. According to the police report, there was no "MAGA" statements or clothing. That little tidbit is a fabrication by TMZ, most likely to sensationalize the story.

Most posts are trying to figure out what happened, not disbelieving the victim. That's not the same thing. Should it be?

Wooh hoooo.... there was no MAGA comment. Yay! Yay! Yay! Seriously? So what? A man was horrifically attacked. Who cares if they didn't say the
"MAGA". What exactly makes knowing that tidbit so comforting to you about this situation.


I'm disgusted!

^^ I'm the pp poster. I meant to quote the person who said "I knew the MAGA statement was bogus!". Proclaiming it as if that fact makes all the wrongs, right.

A police report is not a police investigation.

A police report is just the basic facts. The investigation will have more information.

Btw, Harvey Levin himself is a huge MAGA Trumptard so don't act like TMZ is a liberal news outlet.
