Yeah, I'm definitely comfortable just waiting to hear the results of a complete investigation on this one. I have no opinion at the moment (i had never even heard of this guy before this story broke btw), aside from thinking it's all very weird. I need to know the details and answers to the whys.Gern Blansten said:I'm not ready to believe "sources within". I'll believe an official Chicago PD statement. Not saying he didn't do it himself....just not ready to believe the hype over the "victim" yet.

Not you two because I don’t remember what you said back when it happened but I do find it funny that people now want to wait until more is known. We could all learn a valuable lesson from this regardless of the outcomehippiemom = goodness0

If the "sources" are correct he's absolutely screwed. But I don't see how he would be denying it if that were the case.

People having never heard of this guy is his motivation. Now everyone knows his name. He will get charged with filing a false police report and nothing of consequence will happen, then he will no on talk shows and probably end up on some reality tv shows that idiots will watch and he will make more money than he would have in his acting career.PJ_Soul said:

He's on the show Empire, and if I look it up I see that it was the number one rated show in the 18 - 49 demographic for three seasons. Descriptions of it online say "Other than sports programming, the show made more money for its network last year than did any other series, including advertiser favorites American Idol and The Big Bang Theory."
So probably he was already making money.my small self... like a book amongst the many on a shelf0 -
These are allegedly the brothers that were involved. Didn't he say he single handedly fought them off lol. What a crazy story.

I have no clue what his motivation might have been, and neither do you. I am eager to hear the results of the investigation, because it's a very intriguing and odd story.pjhawks said:

Yup. If he's indicted by the grand jury, charged and found guilty, the LBGQT community should vilify him. This type of behavior is super harmful to real, future victims who's claims may be doubted. I also hope it causes him to be shit canned from Empire. He did it for publicity. Well, he got some publicity. And I hope he's rewarded with a career change. Maybe Subway will hire him. They got some press out of this.Ledbetterman10 said:

Fuck this guy. Glad they're charging his dumb ass with a crime. The whole thing sounded shady from the beginning. To fake something like this when there are plenty of real hate crimes going on in the world is so ridiculous.0

Sounds like it related to him being pissed off at his salary.Remember the Thomas Nine !! (10/02/2018)
