you weren't kidding. i've been skipping these. thanks ⤴️🎩
"Bro I'm like 90% positive those Smollettbucks aren't legal tender."
I'm one of the people who believed him, because I couldn't believe someone would be dumb enough to risk their acting career like that. Now I see that he is definitely dumb enough.
Man if this turns out to be true they need to revive the show World's Dumbest Criminals just for him.
Source? I don't see anything about that. In fact I read that they don't even have a future date yet because whatever his defense attorney did this morning.
Update: Smollett now a suspect

Damn.....is there even an out at this point. This was pretty selfish because it puts his castmates in a situation as well right? Unless they kill him off screen or something.
So why is Mark Geragos joining Jussie's legal team? If he is in fact guilty, it seems like an open-and-shut case, so why even bother? What could Mark Geragos possibly do to get him off?
Whole thing is just sad man, just a huge waste of time and effort for everyone involved. Wasted his time and his career, wasted the time of the authorities dealing with this bullshit, whole thing was so needless. I need to know if he really was going to let two innocent people go down for this hoax, because that is some cold hearted shit.
The case hasn't been made official yet, so once that news breaks, it's on.
Some lawyers like the publicity and a challenge. Or there's still something we really don't understand about this whole thing....ok there's plenty we still don't understand.
He is a great criminal defense attorney. Could get him a good plea deal.
Mark is a defense attorney, and wants money. Does he need any other motivation?
As for Jussie, he needs a good lawyer to limit/avoid jail time.
Lawyers get paid whether you win or lose. Such a fire hot case will demand a premium for sure.
Haven't people come back from worse? Child molestation if I recall.
You have to be a piece of work to do this to someone in general, but to do it to your little brother? Damn.
Are you implying that the defendant's attorney doesn't get paid when they lose?
You know that defense lawyers still make money even if their client gets convicted, right?
No legitimate defense lawyer works on a contingency where they only get paid if their client doesn't get convicted.
When Cosby got convicted his lawyers didnt have to return the fees he paid them.
Lawyer stuff, probaby get his sentence shortened some I would imagine.
This whole case can be summed up with
Here's what'll happen. After this is over. I doubt he does any jail time. He'll essentially fade away for a bit. Then sometime down the road don't be shocked if you see some sort of "documentary" about him telling his story or some interview. He'll probably claim some sort of mental disorder.
I think this might make him toxic. If they were still around I'd predict he'd be making WCW appearances within two years.
Holy shit that video of the brothers is damning. What a wild ride and it's like it just started. Wonder what his defense angle is gonna be.
