Jussie Smollett's attorney allowed to remain on case but can't question Abel and Ola Osundairo, judge rules
Fox News
Court documents obtained by Fox News on Friday heard a judge say he would not remove one of Smollett’s lawyers from the matter despite the fact he believes the attorney did, in fact, speak with brothers Abel and Ola Osundairo.
The Osundairos came forward soon after the purported incident and told police that the actor had paid them $3,500 to jump him on a Chicago street in an effort to raise his profile because he was unhappy with his role on "Empire." In the ruling, Cook County Judge James Linn simply said that he would bar a member of Smollett’s legal counsel, attorney Nenye Uche, from questioning the brothers should the actor’s case go to trial – pressing that another member of the defense team would have to be the one to examine the acting pair if they were to take the stand.
