Jury selection begins on Monday (November 29) in the trial of former “Empire” star Jussie Smollett.
The actor, singer, and filmmaker is accused of making false reports to authorities claiming he was the victim of a racist and homophobic attack in 2019.
Remember his interview on “Good Morning America” with Robin Roberts where he detailed the attack?
A Cook County, Illinois grand jury indicted Jussie Smollett on six counts last year despite him denying he orchestrated the attack and maintaining his innocence.
Judge James Linn denied a motion by Jussie’s attorneys to have the case dismissed.
The judge also said no cameras will be allowed in the courtroom.
Cook County wins the award for beating a dead horse.
This entire ordeal has been a circus from the beginning until now. Don’t believe me?
Just cruise through the headlines and happenings that resulted from this “attack.”
At this point, they are trying to squeeze blood from a turnip in the name of vengeance.
