The January 2019 Self-Inflicted Hate Crime Hoax Former Empire Actor Jussie Smollett Planned And Carried Out With The Help Of His Personal Trainers [Part 2]

**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**
This is the 2nd part of a 3 part series on the fake hate crime carried out by actor Jussie Smollett.  In the early morning hours of January 29, 2019, Empire actor Jussie Smollett was attacked by 2 masked men outside his Chicago apartment as he walked home from getting some food. The men shouted racial and homophobic slurs at Smollett, told him this was MAGA country (a reference to support for President Trump) and they punched him.  As they fought, the men would pour bleach on Smollett and loop a rope fashioned into a noose around his neck before running off into the night.  Love and support poured in from around the country for Jussie Smollett, some even calling this hate crime a modern day lynching.  The ensuing investigation would eventually reveal there was much more to the story than first thought.

**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**

On March 10, 1928, single mom living in Los Angeles, Christine Collins had to go to her job at the phone switchboards.  So, she gave her 9 year old son Walter money to go to the movies.  He was never seen again.  After an exhaustive investigation the LAPD, 5 months after Walter went missing, was told the boy was found in Illinois.  He was sent by train to LA, but when he got off to be reunited with his mom, she took one look at him and said - this is not my son.  But the LAPD forced her to take the boy.  This is the story of the Changeling.

The 1998 Murder Of Gay University of Wyoming Student Matthew Shepard Perpetrated By Aaron McKinney And Russell Henderson

**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**

On October 6, 1998, 21 year old University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard encountered 2 men, Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson, on a night out of drinking beers and shooting pool.  The two men soon realized Matthew was gay and came up with a plan to attack, rob, and rob his house.  They ended up leaving Matthew tied to a fence on a desolate road where he wasn’t discovered until 18 hours later, barely alive.  He was transported to the hospital and would remain in a coma for 6 days until his battered body gave up.  While the men who murdered Matthew insisted the crime was motivated by the intentions to rob him and burglarize his house, however, many more people felt as though it was motivated by homophobia.  While Matthew was not the only gay person to be attacked and/or killed in the United States, his story resonated with people all over the world and to this day remains one of the most heartbreaking cases that cast a spotlight on  homophobia in  America.

The 2016 Shooting Death Of  28-Year-Old Donald "DJ" Fickey, Jr That Was Ruled A Suicide Despite Mountains Of Evidence It Was Anything But

**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**

UPDATE:  As of August of 2020, the Medical Examiner has changed DJ's manner of death from Suicide to Undetermined.  It's not perfect, it's still not correct, but it's a step in the right direction finally. 

On October 3, 2016, father of 3 Donald ‘DJ’ Fickey, Jr. was killed by a shotgun blast to the left side of his face in Flintstone, Georgia.  A number of conflicting stories emerged from the onset from the various witnesses at the scene, but one thing was certain among all of them - DJ did not shoot himself.  Yet, the assistant medical examiner with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) ruled his death a suicide, when clearly all of the evidence pointed to this being anything but a self-inflicted gunshot wound.  So, as it stands, DJ’s case is considered closed and is no longer being investigated.  DJ’s sister, Amanda Shirley has been working tirelessly to get anyone and everyone to understand - DJ’s death is a homicide and a killer is walking free.

The 2008 Shooting Death Of 15-Year-Old Lawrence King By Classmate Brandon McIreney Because Lawrence Was Openly Gay

**KD IS NO LONGER WITH ORBITAL JIGSAW OR BLUBRRY**

On February 12, 2008, 15 year old Lawrence King was seated in his computer lab in class working on an English paper when 14 year old Brandon McIreney pulled a gun from his back pack and shot Lawrence twice in the back of the head.  Lawrence died 2 days later.  The tension between the boys had been growing the the days and weeks leading up to the shooting, as Lawrence had been subjected to incessant bullying and taunting from not only Brandon, but several of the boys in his class.  In his attempt to turn things around on his tormentors, Lawrence began teasing and taunting Brandon back, which enraged Brandon.  The school seemingly did very little as the problems between the boys continued to escalate.  Please note that I chose to refer to Lawrence by his given name in this story because he had not had the chance to transition before he was murdered.
