You should. We created multiple threads on it, there was wall to wall national media coverage, sustained social media public outrage, and the president called for an investigation into the hoax.

Yeah no charges were brought at all. That’s a good point, thank you.

First time I'm hearing about this He's a bitch just like Jussie. Do you think that people who are opposed to what Jussie did are unwilling to say the same about other people? This says more about your bias than the people you're aiming this thread at. You don't have to be a conservative or anyone else on the right to be against what Jussie did. Quit trying to act like you're the mother of all black people or something, it's weird.

Also what I don't get, is why he would even fake this anyway. If you want to blame Antifa for getting attacked, just go where they are and say something they don't like. Simple. A bike lock or a firework inside a glass bottle or some mace will come out at some point.

this is my first hearing of it, but a cursory glance gives the impression that he originally filed the report about a black man stabbing him
and the antifa narrative got pinned on after the fact

the picture of him buying the knife himself minutes before is kind of interesting



have not been closely following the Smollet case, but have a vague understanding that he apparently dropped his claims after images of his potential attackers being black showed up
were there ever charges of a homophobic hate crime pursued?
to my comprehension, issues of homophobia and transphobia are relatively frequent, and quite severe in the black community

honestly, as much as either is a fuckwit for faking a crime and attempting to fan racial hatred

the tragedy of this particular story seems, to me, to be him being 'yet another forgotten veteran'

Quote:

Witt told investigators, however, that he was recently discharged from the Navy and concocted the hate-crime story with hopes that the Department of Veterans Affairs  would pay for his medical bills, Denver’s CBS News affiliate reported.
