And sorry to all the conspiracy theorists, but I don't think it's very likely that the CPD would have faked 700+ pages of documents and videos just so they could accuse a single guy of faking a hate crime. Nobody has time for that poo poo.

What other places are reporting is that the documents show the case was closed for weeks before the charges were formally dropped and Smollett was given the option to pay $10,000 in restitution and do community service. The detectives investigating were told about this but never passed it on to their superiors. So the most likely explanation is that yes, Smollett faked a hate crime, and he was given a potentially scummy deal to get out of it without charges.

this is an insanely bad take, stop doubling down and defending the CPD

or at least take it to the cop thread instead of here

I loving hate cops and try to never deal with them because they’re useless. That doesn’t mean crime and staged hate crimes suddenly don’t exist.

I've got a beef with someone who undermines every effort at getting people to understand how serious racism in America is by giving chuds ammunition to accuse all hate crimes of being fake.

Torture sites take a lot less effort to set up than hundreds of pages of fake documents and videos. You can have Guantanamo Bay done by the same government that didn't fake the World Trade Center attack.

I'm going to have to follow this loving idiot all over, aren't I?

Some people just gotta hate on a gay black man. Hmm, maybe that's why Smollett agreed to pay $10k to try and make this go away. He knows there's no justice in situations like this, which is probably why he never called it in himself and tried to stop his friend who did.


The cops have already released over 500 pages of documents on the case and not one single line in any of them connected Smollett to the crime, outside of the confession by the Osundairo brothers after 47 hours of interrogation.

Link to the latest drop.

It's late here and I'm going to bed, but I'll go through the files tomorrow, just as I have with the last two drops.

When the DA dropped charges against Smollett the white moderate and MAGA set lost their loving minds in a fury over it and that made me pretty happy.

some rear end in a top hat racists in the cpd nudged the machine in just the right way, and everything else followed just as it’s designed to

I have 4 sisters, and my ex-wife has two, with no brothers, so until my much-younger sisters started marrying my daughter’s only uncle was Uncle Toby, my dad’s golden. she made him a “best uncle” trophy to go with the “best aunt (tied)” ones she gave my sisters when she was about 5.

uncle Toby’s getting pretty old, but even with two of my sisters having married lovely guys, he is still Best Uncle.

yeah like everyone thinks their dog is special but honestly this dude is extremely weird, we have no idea what his history is. the shelter says they'd had him for 6 months and he was nearly feral when he showed up, but mostly he just seems like he lived in an old ladies house or something. he's very sweet and mild and just doesn't really act like a dog.

he's probably part chow, the rest is maybe some combination of shiba and bulldog. we've met a few shiba owners who say he looks and acts a lot like a shiba. his legs are hosed up and he makes weird noises all day. he refuses to stay inside, even in the heat (which he hates) and the rain (which he hates). he'll come in for 20 minutes every night to eat his dinner and say hi and then demand to go back out. he rules.

we could probably pimp him out online but this post is about as much as i have a stomach for
