Jussie Smollett WILL Talk To Police Again -- As Fox Continues To Have His Back!

Jussie Smollett Police Meeting Empire Role

This Jussie Smollett case has gone off the rails as the evidence stacks up against his story of being the victim of a hate crime.
One increasingly suspicious factor? His seeming unwillingness to sit down for another interview with investigators.
That does sound like something a guilty person would do…

But on Tuesday that apparently changed as TMZ reports his team called in at the last minute, postponing a grand jury in which Nigerian brothers Ola and Abel Osundairo were set to testify, presumably the story we’ve heard from insiders — that Jussie staged the attack with them.
According to police sources, investigators now believe the date of the attack was chosen specifically because the Osundairos were scheduled to leave the country the next day.
It’s unclear whether Jussie himself has agreed to meet with police again, but his legal team definitely have.
Meanwhile, Jussie’s family have his back — as does his Empire family.
20th Century Fox Television told TheBlast in a statement on Wednesday the actor not only was never slated to be written off the show before all this — he still won’t be:

“Jussie Smollett continues to be a consummate professional on set and as we have previously stated he is not being written out of the show.”

That is, we have to assume, unless he ends up going to jail.
We can’t be certain where this case will go from here, but despite statements to the contrary, right now it does not look good for Jussie or Jamal Lyon.
