GMA's Robin Roberts Addresses Jussie Smollett Interview

Good Morning America‘s Robin Roberts sat down for an interview with Jussie Smollett, which aired on Thursday (February 14).

The interview is the subject of some controversy. Some apparent new information has been revealed regarding the case where police allegedly suspect Jussie paid two brothers to stage the crime. No official information has been released by police at this time, and all information being leaked has come from unnamed sources.

“When I sat down with Jussie it was Tuesday night [February 12] in Chicago, at the time to give his first account, publicly give his first account of what he said happened,” Robin said on the air on Monday (February 18). “At that time, on Tuesday, police officers were saying that his account was consistent, it was credible, and that he was being cooperative. This was all before the interview aired on Thursday, and then we found out about the brothers.”

If you don’t know, “the brothers” in question spoke out for the first time just yesterday.
