I gotta wonder if the Obama Crime Family is grooming Smollett for political office down the road. The way this was dropped then his record expunged tells me they have something planned that requires he have a clean record with no felony convictions. Could be they wanted another good looking, clean, articulate, black man to run for senator of Illinois and repeat the farce that is Barry Soetoro.
I think it’s imperative Smollett get that felony on his record in a way that cannot be expunged later on. It’s the only way to make this right. If the law was broken in the deal then the deal is invalid and he goes to trial as planned or makes a plea deal to accept the felony, do his 5-15 years in prison he owes, then get on with his life.
I think they're just protecting Kamala Harris.
