No plea bargain, prosecute him to the fullest extent and if found guilty the harshest penalty.

I watched the whole newscast live, this is more coverage (still not all, the Q & A was great) than which I posted earlier. 16:17:


Eddie inderectly scolds the media, Hollywood, politicians that hopped on this before the facts came out. We need more public servants like Eddie.

EDIT: disregard, the video switches back to a 10 minute version. Eddie answering questions from the media at the conclusion of the conference was great, but can't capture it here yet. I'm done.

………………………………………………...

Ah, this covers the rest of news conference. 1:23:58:

...the Superintendent of Police never cut him any slack:


Well, after all, this has made blacks look like the real racists, homosexuals look like attention-seeking victimizers, Chicago look like a hate-filled city, Hollywood actors look like brazenly smug liars, the liberal media look like fake news propagandists, talk show hosts look like judgmental race-baiters, Democrats look like crazed Trump haters, etc., etc.; in other words, no real harm done, right?

Jussie's getting caught crying wolf might make it harder for the next hoaxer to get attention, but don’t hold your breath. Let the Green New Deal proponents do that. Besides, though the police are quite confident, he hasn't confessed, and there has been no trial yet.

I thought this was a hoax from the beginning -- didn't pass the "smell test." But I must say I am surprised how it has turned out. I figured the media would allow this to fade into the woodwork and be forgotten, no harm, no foul, you know. Kudos to the Chicago P.D. for staying on it.

I'm still suspicious for exactly the reason you say.

Why is the liberal press playing nursemaid to this story!?

He swore to God today to his fellow actors on Empire that he didn't do it. He can swear to God all he wants, but the evidence seems to indicate that his claim that he is innocent is false.

Let that had been someone not Democrat or a liberal RINO and they would have had him hung before a trial even began.

They keep crying for ppl to not rush to justice, but where was this when Brett Kavanaugh was being confirmed before the SJC? They had him guilty, on a horse, and a switch ready to smack that horse in his rump BEFORE CBF even testified and made herself look the foo....

Smollett was trying to touch off national race riots. He must have cost the Chicago police and the FBI a million dollars in manpower hours to track down his activities. He has a million-dollar a year job and he should be made to pay back the City of Chicago, which is bankrupt.

Jussie Smollett needs to apologize to Trump supporters that he smeared, not just the city of Chicago, Eddie [31:53].

[add]

lol... BREAKING: Trump calls out Jussie Smollett for smearing MAGA supporters!

.@JussieSmollett – what about MAGA and the tens of millions of people you insulted with your racist and dangerous comments!? #MAGA
Just heard about an incident at a Cali university, where all things leftist are rewarded. The leftist screamed at the Trump supporter that ‘he was inciting violence’, before attacking & punching the supporter. Um.....alrighty then.
