CNN's Don Lemon Allegedly Tipped Off Jussie Smollett During Police Investigation
• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Steve WatsonReports indicate that Lemon was pinpointed by Empire star Jussie Smollett who claimed in court that he received texts from the CNN host warning him that police believed Smollett had faked his own attack in February 2019.
Smollett was indicted by a grand jury for staging a racist violent attack on himself and blaming it on Trump supporters.
Witnesses inside the courtroom revealed the details of the testimony:

The next day Smollett called a CPD detective who was handling the case, because "I didn't understand what all of these lies" the CPD spokesman was putting out there, he testifies.

Smollett says police said he'd seen two men in red hats, which he's denying.
