Newly revealed report offers chilling details of alleged Jussie Smollett attack originally appeared on abcnews.go.com
Harrowing details emerged in the Jussie Smollett case on Monday, nearly a week after the "Empire" actor told police that he was brutally attacked in what authorities are calling a possible hate crime in Chicago.
An initial incident report, released by the Chicago Police Department on Monday, revealed that a 60-year-old friend of Smollett called the police on his behalf and said the actor "did not want to report offense however he believed it to be in the best interest to."
Once they arrived, responding officers said they found Smollett at his home with stained clothing and "white rope draped around" his neck, according to the report, which ABC News obtained via a Freedom of Information Act request.
Smollett, who portrays a gay musician on Fox's "Empire," said the attack happened last Tuesday at around 2 a.m. as he was leaving a Subway restaurant. He told police that two attackers gained his attention by yelling racial and homophobic slurs and began to beat him "about the face with their hands," the report said.
They used their hands, feet, and teeth as weapons in the assault, according to the report.
"The primary aggressor was wearing a black mask concealing any facial features and both offenders were dressed in black," according to the report. "The victim does not remember any other distinguishing features of the offenders, or in which direction they fled," it added.
Although Smollett was unable to identify his alleged attackers, he did provide officers with an approximate height and weight for one of the assailants.

I imagine that means he turned over cropped screenshots of his call logs, that cropped out the calls before and after the one that captures the so-called attack, and could also easily be (and probably was) photoshopped.

Efff this guy. I don't believe him any more than I believed Tuwana Brawley, Black Lives Matter, Blasey-Ford, Swetnick, etc. If you really went through such a racial incident, you'd provide full cooperation to the police. He is hiding something, and that something is the conspiracy to create a false narrative for whatever reason douchenozzles like this stage such events. Wasting everyone's time playing stupid games.
He can go choke on a sack of South Carolina fans for all I care.

Jussie Smollett’s neighbors cast doubt on his attack story
“I don’t believe it happened the way he said it did,” said Agin Muhammad, who lives in the same swank high-rise near the Navy Pier as Smollett.
