Last month brothers Able and Ola Osundario claimed actor Jussie Smollett hired them to stage a hate crime attack in Chicago that was foiled after detectives obtained video surveillance showing the brothers and Jussie were working together [click here if you missed that].
Yesterday the lawyer for Abel and Ola quit after they refused to make a public statement after all charges against Jussie Smollett were dropped...
From TMZ
Moments after Jussie was cleared by the State's Attorney, the lawyer for Abel and Ola urged them to make a public statement, standing by their claim Jussie faked the "attack." We're told they refused, and ultimately their lawyer, Gloria Schmidt, bailed on them, saying she didn't want to rep them anymore.
The question ... why would Abel and Ola go radio silent, especially because Jussie essentially pointed the finger right back at them, saying he never lied and the "attack" was real? The police, prosecutors and even the 2 brothers say they were the ones in the street with Jussie ... but everyone other than the actor says it was a hoax.
