JOHNSON: "So let me reiterate again. You know, you all heard me say consistently that we were treating Mr. Smollett like a victim and we did. We might have had some -- some peculiarities with the case as we do with most cases. So it wasn’t until the 47th hour of the 48 hour hold time that we can legally hold him in custody that it -- that it took a change. So we gave him the benefit of the doubt up until the 47th hour. When we discovered the actual motive, quite frankly, it pissed everybody off.”
