Police investigating whether Smollett and two other men staged attack: reports
By Aris Folley - 02/14/19 07:28 PM EST

Chicago police are reportedly investigating whether actor Jussie Smollett fabricated the story about his alleged assault in Chicago by two men last month, according to multiple reports from Chicago news media.

A local CBS affiliate reported based on sources that police are investigating whether Smollett and two other persons of interest “potentially staged the attack."

Sources made similar allegations to Chicago's ABC7, which reported that sources allege the attack was staged because the star was being written off of the show "Empire." ABC 7 also reported that Smollett did not appear for an interview with police earlier in the day.

Chicago police told ABC 7 they "cannot confirm any of those reports."

Smollett has maintained that his account of the attack is true.

Empire’ Star Jussie Smollett Orchestrated Attack, Sources Say. Updated.

The MSM just turned on him....

CHICAGO (CBSLA/CBS CHICAGO) — Investigators believe Jussie Smollett and the non-cooperating witnesses in the alleged attack of the “Empire” actor last month “potentially staged the attack,” sources say.

Chicago police raided the home of two “persons of interest” Wednesday night, a relative of those men says.

Police took bleach, shoes, electronics, receipts and other items from the home.

The men, who are both of Nigerian descent, have appeared as extras on the show and their attorney, Gloria Schmidt, says they do both know Smollett.

“They do know Jussie,” she said. “They have worked with him on Empire. My preliminary investigations show that on set it’s very tight. They’re all very cordial with each other, so they’re baffled why they are people of interest.”
