Neither does there appear to be any mention of Smollett sending threats and hate mail.

It's historical and a separate charge.  He is being charged with sending racist hare mail to himself on the set of Empire.  Have yourself a google.

There was a thread on it. Unfortunately it had to be closed down because prejudiced people on this forum used the opportunity to make offensive remarks.

That's a real shame.

Why do you accuse me of intention to be prejudice?

The allegation is that Michelle Obama helped Michelle Foxx intervene to get the charges dropped.

 

 

Based on the fact the case involves an ex-chief of staff to Michelle Obama sending texts / emails to a relative of Smollett.

Well, they're black - that's as good as guilty to Trumps "send 'em back" supporters.

Smollet "may" have done the wrong thing. As far as im concerned he is innocent until proved guilty in a court of law but if he has done wrong then ask yourself why he felt the need to do what he did. He probably wanted to shine  light on the discrimination and plain old fashioned racism many people of colour face on a daily basis in the US.

For that he should be commended.

He should be commended for faking a hate crime? What an odd thing to think.

No he wanted to earn himself a pay rise by being the centre of this all.

 

Odious, foul, revolting creature.

Ill repeat. Until Smollet has been found guilty in a court of law then as far as im concerned he is an innocent man or do you feel trial by social media to be a good thing?

You said you think he is innocent until proven guilty, but 'if he has done wrong' it was probably to shine a light on discrimination and should be commended. So, in other words, if he did fake the hate crime, he should be commended for it. 

 

How are you now claiming that that isn't what you said?
