It has been a long time since this story was front and center every single day for weeks on end.
That being said, the police and feds are still working the case involving the disgraced A- list singer/actor from a now defunct hit network show.
The feds have refused to hand some vital information over to the local police department because they are trying to determine if there was coordination between the actor and his camp and the blog that published the racist letter just hours after the “attack.”
The blog took the letter and didn’t ask questions.
The actor knew that, and was close to the site, so sent it there.
That is at least the theory the feds are working.

NASCAR: Bubba Wallace confronts ‘Jussie Smollett’ narrative
NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace addressed the “Jussie Smollett” narrative surrounding the noose situation from Talladega Superspeedway in June.
Bubba Wallace knows how it looked when the apparent noose in his garage stall at Talladega Superspeedway turned out to be nothing more than a garage pull rope fashioned like a noose and that no hate crime had been committed despite NASCAR calling the situation a “heinous act” — and despite the fact that president Steve Phelps had stated that a hate crime was committed.
As the NASCAR world rallied around Wallace, who had driven a Black Lives Matter car less than two weeks prior and called for the sport to ban the Confederate Flag, he even called fans “simple-minded” for questioning what had happened.
After an FBI investigation, it was later determined that the rope had been there since at least the October race at the track in 2019.
Garage stalls are assigned based on the championship standings, and based on that, nobody could have predicted that it would be the #43 team in that stall this past June. The #21 team of Wood Brothers Racing had been assigned this particular stall in October of 2019. – Source
Jussie Smollett: Actor maintains his innocence
In an Instagram Live interview with US author Marc Lamont-Hill, the actor said the last two years had been “beyond frustrating”.
“They won’t let this go, it doesn’t matter. There is an example being made.”
“The sad part is it’s an example being made of someone that didn’t do what they’re being accused of,” he added.
The former Empire actor is involved in an ongoing criminal case with the city of Chicago.
Authorities have accused him of staging an attack on himself for publicity, something he has always denied.- Source
