The prosecutor’s summary of what happened. This is from when they were actually going after him. They basically had a perfect case.
TLDR
Jussie frequently bought drugs from one of the bros
Sounds like they used to sleep together (this is my interpretation)
The FBI has the letter he received (sent???) on Jan 22nd, and is doing forensic analysis.
He was angry nobody seemed to care about the fake letter
On Jan 25th he asked the bros to attack him
On Jan 27th he showed them where it was supposed to happen
Videos of him driving them around the area of the attack
Video of the brothers buying supplies used in the attack
He asked them not to hurt him and to make it look like he was fighting back (he believed the cameras would catch the attack)
He called them twice before the attack happened (first to let them know he was running late, and later to tell them the new time)
There was a witness to the attack, an NBC News employee, she said there was no shouting, no MAGA country, no cursing. Nothing
The police was notified of the attack only after the bros had returned home (video surveillance confirms this)
Less than 18 hours after the attack Jussie called them
A few days later he called them again
Bros were detained by US Customs, they were returning from their previously booked trip to Nigeria. Scared so they decided to talk.
