More damning details, this from TMZ.
Jussie Smollett rehearsed the "attack" against him days before the incident and it was all staged for the camera, this according to what the 2 brothers told cops.
Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, Abel and Ola Osundairo told cops they got in a car with Jussie and scouted a location, settling on the one right outside the actor's apartment. The brothers said Jussie chose the spot because he believed a camera would have captured the action.
Our sources say the brothers told police Jussie said he wanted to make it a "physical thing," but not to the point he'd be seriously injured.
I initially thought that he didn’t want the attack captured on camera. As it turns out, he apparently did, as other posters believed.

All of this makes me feel so very, very, very sad, and so angry too.
From the beginning I wanted so much to believe Jussie was telling the truth, and nothing,but the whole truth.
I'm not naive by any means, I knew things weren't adding up. The main thing that bothered me is his refusal to turnover his phone willingly.
I knew then, I had never heard of any victim who wasn't helpful in anyway they could be in order to bring the suspects to justice.
Yet, I wanted to believe he had a valid reason, even if I didnt understand the 'why.'
The main reason I wanted to believe he was being totally honest throughout is any claim of any kind of hate crimes can incite such dangerous emotions/situations that can lead to people being seriously hurt, and property being destroyed not even belonging to the targeted suspects.
Jussie had no way of knowing how others may react.
I wanted to believe no one would ever make such false hate claims willing, and purposefully, because it is such a horrendous crime, and affects us all emotionally, no matter who the victim are or the race of any hate crime.
Jussie knew his claim would get night, and day coverage by most MSM who always covers these kind of claims. He had to know before premediating his hoax it could further divide our country where innocent others may wind up being severely hurt.
It wouldnt be the first time racial claims were made, and before the evidence even became known to anyone, cities were on fire, and towns were under siege, with many police officers hurt.
All too late, once the actual facts finally became known, the facts told a far different story, yet millions of dollars had to be paid by the taxpayers in those cities to repair all of the massive destruction where a false narrative had started it all.
Knowing now that it was all a choreographed script all along , sickens me to know he could dare do such a vicious, heartless, and very selfish self centered act.
This was never about a hate crime. This was all about JUSSIE, and being in the limelight, so he could stir the pot. It was about him being an attention seeker, who had no intentions of ever telling the truth.
Every time a false claim is made by ANYONE, it hurts all of those who are true victims of a hate crime, no matter who they are or the color of their skin.
Now I feel nothing put pure disgust, and such disdain for this selfish individual who has lied to everyone from the very beginning.
I hope he is arrested, and receives a harsh punishment to send a strong message the hate crime hoax he did, will not be tolerated...never.
