Jussie Smollett could still face federal charges as the FBI and the US Postal Inspection Service are continuing their probe into a threatening letter Smollett might have sent to himself, a report said.
Federal investigators continue to probe whether Smollett — who was cleared of state charges on Tuesday — delivered the racially charged letter to the “Empire” office in Chicago, according to ABC News.
A source told the network that the dismissal of the state’s case has not impacted the federal probe.
The hate-filled letter arrived a week before his alleged hate crime occurred.
Smollett said the letter stated “You will die black f-g” in cutout magazine letters with a crude stick figure drawing hanging from a tree.
“MAGA” was written in red letters across the envelope, which also had a crushed-up white powder in it that was later determined to be aspirin.
