    IMO, people like this should receive full punishment for the crimes they they falsely accuse other of, or hoax.

    In reality, he probably won't do one day in jail. If it comes to that, FJB will pardon him in exchange for votes and to keep the militants on his side.

    lets see what the sentence will be....

    6 months probation and a 10K fine. ?
    You are not too far off. Got any good stock picks? :)



    Excerpt in case you don't want to click the link.

    Jussie Smollett was sentenced to 30 months felony probation, which will include 150 days in jail, on Thursday for lying to police about an alleged hate crime in 2019. Smollett, best known for his role in the TV show "Empire," was convicted in December of five counts of lying to police about the attack but has maintained throughout his extensive legal battles that it was real.

    Smollett faced up to three years in prison for each of the five felony counts. He will spend the first 150 days of his probation in the Cook County jail, starting immediately, Judge James Linn said. He will also have to pay $120,106 restitution to the city of Chicago in addition to the maximum $25,000 fine.

    The judge also denied a motion to reconsider Smollett's sentence or temporarily stay his jail sentence while his counsel filed an appeal.

    "The wheels of justice turn slowly but sometimes the hammer of justice has to fall and it's falling right now," Linn said. "I'm not staying this."

    In court on Thursday, Linn spent a significant amount of time addressing the defendant, saying his case has received an "unprecedented" amount of attention, the kind he's only seen for murder trials.

    "Let me tell you Mr. Smollett, I know that there is nothing that I will do here today that can come close to the damage you've already done to your own life," Linn said. "You've turned your life upside down by your misconduct and shenanigans, you've destroyed your life as you knew it, and there's nothing that any sentencing judge could do to you that can compare to the damage you've already caused yourself."

    At another point, the judge excoriated Smollett's behavior, saying, "You're just a charlatan pretending to be a victim of a hate crime, and that's shameful."

    Linn also called Smollett "profoundly arrogant and selfish and narcissistic," saying he had done "real damage" to actual victims of hate crimes. But he reiterated that his sentence was not chosen to assuage public outcry but was based on Smollett's priors, testimony and the response from social justice titans who spoke on Smollett's behalf.

    "You knew this was a country that was slowly trying to heal past injustices and current injustices and trying to make a better future for each other," he said. "And it was a hard road and you took some scabs off some healing wounds and you ripped them apart for one reason: You wanted to make yourself more famous, and for a while it worked."

    "You were actually throwing a national pity party for yourself," Linn continued.

    Smollett exited the courtroom with a raised fist held high in the air.

    "I am innocent, and I am not suicidal," Smollett said, after intiially refusing to speak during the sentencing. "If I did this, then it means that I stuck my fist in the fears of Black Americans in this country for over 400 years and the fears of the LGBT community. Your honor, I respect you and I respect the jury. But I did not do this, and I am not suicidal — and if anything happens to me when I go in there, I did not do it to myself. And you must all know that. I respect you, your honor, and I respect your decision."

    And there is a REASON he screamed REPEATEDLY he “Was not suicidal” because he is going to kill himself in prison to start race riots and conspiracy theories of what his “White captors” did to him, he will become a MARTYR mark my words !!!!

    Smollett won’t do a day in jail instead it will be probation and community service. He should get at least 6 months if not longer for the stunt he orchestrated
    6 months jail time

    Are people in power stupid enough to let this yo-yo know anything about them. Then they deserve anything that results.
