Excerpts from article:
..."The Real" co-host Amanda Seales has leapt to the defense of fellow actor Jussie Smollett after his indictment on Tuesday by a Chicago special prosecutor over the police reports he filed in January 2019 for what he said was a hate-crime attack.
..."Like, I'm just at my wits end about us centering situations like this and wanting to make people have to pay," Seales said of Smollett's now-famous claim that he was the victim of a hate-crime in January 2019, for which he was later accused of filing a false police report.
...Seales went on to stress the low-stakes of Smollett's alleged crime.
..."Taxpayers resources are being used every day to imprison people who have done nothing but be an addict. So I don't want to hear about Jussie Smollett."
..."OK, but what do we do about people that feel that, 'Well, what if a hate crime really happens to me, and now because of what Jussie Smollett did, now they don't believe me,"' Houghton asked.
