New Surveillance Video Shows Brothers Linked to Smollett’s Attack Buying Red Hats & Ski Masks

New surveillance video shows the Osundairo brothers buying “supplies” from a store before the fake MAGA assault on Jussie Smollett.

As sources told CBS News, Jussie Smollett told the brothers what to buy and countless phone calls were placed for this.

Ski masks and red hats were among the items purchased by the brothers.

The newly released video from CBS Chicago shows the Osundairo brothers placing various items on the counter as the cashier rings up their order.

On January 29th, actor Jussie Smollett told Chicago Police that two white Trump supporters ambushed him on the streets at about 2 AM while he was walking back to his home following a midnight run to Subway to grab a sandwich.

Smollett said the two white attackers recognized him as the actor from ‘Empire,’ hurled racist and homophobic slurs at him, poured bleach-like substance on him and put a noose around his neck.

The hate hoax began to unravel after it was revealed that two Nigerian brothers, who were also extras on Empire were paid $4,000 to stage the alleged attack.

The FBI and US Postal Inspection Service are investigating whether Jussie Smollett played a role in sending a threatening and racist letter crafted from magazine clippings to the ‘Empire’ studio in Chicago prior to the fake attack.

On Tuesday, CBS reported that the brothers involved in the Jussie Smollett hate hoax were expected to testify before a grand jury.

According to many reports, Smollett’s indictment is imminent.
