“Empire" actor Jussie Smollett was attacked in the early morning hours on Tuesday in what Chicago police are calling a possible hate crime.

Smollett was attacked by two people "yelling out racial and homophobic slurs" and "poured an unknown chemical substance on the victim," police said.

According to police, one of Smollett's alleged attackers also put a rope around his neck. Both fled the scene.

Smollett took himself to Northwestern Hospital and "is in good condition," police told CNN.

Later Tuesday, CNN's Don Lemon spoke to Smollett and a mutual friend who was at the hospital with the actor. Smollett confirmed the incident took place.

He was shaken and angry that an attack like this could happen. Smollett told CNN he fought back at the attackers.

"Given the severity of the allegations, we are taking this investigation very seriously and treating it as a possible hate crime," the police statement said.

Smollett has starred on Fox's "Empire" since 2015. He plays Jamal, a successful singer in the musical Lyon family. Like his character, Smollett identifies as gay.

"We are deeply saddened and outraged to learn that a member of our 'Empire' family, Jussie Smollett, was viciously attacked last night," a representative of 20th Century Fox Television and Fox Entertainment said in a statement to CNN. "We send our love to Jussie, who is resilient and strong, and we will work with law enforcement to bring these perpetrators to justice. The entire studio, network and production stands united in the face of any despicable act of violence and hate -- and especially against one of our own."

A representative for GLAAD told CNN the organization has reached out Smollett to offer assistance and support.

"Jussie is a true champion for LGBTQ people and is beloved by the community and allies around the world," a GLAAD spokesperson said in a statement.

So I realize we're at a potential climax in this story, but I can't help but feel like we're glossing over the cum flavored hot sauce bottle. The police are obviously devoting a lot to this case, and for a blatant piece of evidence to go overlooked like that is a little iffy to me. I don't know the area, but I'm assuming since working actors live there, it's probably not riddled with trash to an extent that a glass bottle would be overlooked in an evidence sweep regarding a chemical attack.

So can we charge the two Nigerian Dudes for Whiteface?

The BBC are going to follow up this story exactly the same way they followed up CovCath. BBC reporters whine about being pushed when they deserve to be chopped up like Khashoggi.

Jussie Smollett: 'No evidence' Empire actor attack was staged

As time has passed and no progress has been made with the investigation, some have cast doubts about Jussie's version of events.

Recounting the night publicly for the first time, Jussie told American network ABC that he hesitated to call police after it happened because of pride.

"We live in a society where as a gay man you are considered somehow to be weak. And I am not weak. And we as a people are not weak."

When police came he says he left the rope around his neck and was still wearing clothes that smelled of bleach.

"I went down to where it happened and I walked them through exactly what happened."

British Press are banned from prejudicing cases under pain of prosecution and imprisonment. They have to toe this shit line while the investigation is on until they charge Smollett with wasting Police Time and perverting the course of justice or whatever the US equivalents are.

They jump on every anti-Trump story as fast as CNN.

The rules surrounding the British press cover UK court cases, not potential cases in the USA. This has absolutely nothing to do with reporting guidelines and everything to do with Fuck Trump.

The main US BBC Reporter was detailed in giving his events of the vicious attack/minor shove of the BBC cameraman at the El Paso rally earlier this week, won't that have prejudiced the case if charges were made against that guy?

Too bad somebody stole their noose-tying and bleach-throwing technologies...

Cops can actually smell out a bad liar pretty easily. That's why you never talk to them unless you can get an attorney present for anything more serious than a traffic ticket. Even if you haven't done shit, they are good at making you flub and admit to shit. People falsely confess to crimes all the time because they have the interrogation thing down like pat.

Cops or an active police investigation aren't involved there though. In Smollet's case, it is.

So when Smollett first took this hoax to the media and the BBC were promoting this as another example of Trump's America that wasn't prejudicing the case at all. Running defence for Smollett when the whole of the Internet is calling him a hoax hater isn't prejudicing the case at all.

The BBC jumped in with both feet against the Covington kids. Now that their lawyers are serving papers on the hundreds of famous people the BBC dutifully stay away from that story because they don't want to influence US court cases.

At the same time they jump in with every bullshit story that says the walls are closing in on Trump.

Fuck off with your bullshit that the BBC are following honourable rules by reporting the way they do. I hate the lies from the fake news in America, but at least I can understand it because most of them are following the money. I help pay for the BBC bullshit and them covering for fake news makes me sick.

This shit is better than reading any Dan Brown novel. If anything, this story proves American police are actually somewhat competent, because they played this dumbass like a fiddle.

Chicago PD have alot of experience with giving upstanding Negros enough rope to hang themselves.

This is ~12h old, but does anybody know if it is true? They are reporting that Jussie is in DFE mode and trying to scrub the interwebs of his claims

Bloody hilarious if true considering the man filed a police report and did multiple televised interviews on the subject, one in which he identified two men as the attackers.

If we're lucky they'll be fishing his body out of Lake Michigan by the weekend.

 

[Francis E. Dec Esc.]

I'm guessing he's going to play the Mel Gibson defense, blame wipipo, and check himself into rehab.

That was a horrible pun.

(Mad I didn't think of it.)

 

[not william stenchever]

If the police actually move on this it's going to be fucking hilarious. Not only was the hate crime faked, his accomplices were two literal fucking Nigerians. Truth is stranger than fiction, indeed.

Maybe Jessie was meeting up with them to help out that poor prince who emailed him.

. I help pay for the BBC bullshit .

Why? Seriously there's no reason to pay the licence fee.

 

[Mikoyan]

Your average SocJus blogger/clickbaiter probably can't even identify those two entries as being firearms, the only one they know is "AR-15"

The funny part is that .22 is an AR lookalike, and in standard configuration, not Chicago legal.

The video with the advice on not talking to the police. I think that's a Jew trap. Niggers have been trained that they should never trust the cops, they end up refusing to give their name, the cops obviously take that as a sign the dude is guilty and want to arrest them, the nigger gets all angry and acts like he's going to beat the cop and then we have one dead nigger on the floor.

The fucking Jews want whites hating the cops as much as the niggers do so we get shot like the Dindu's.
