Jussie Smollet was sentenced to 30 months probation withn the first 150 days in the county jail.

I await Dave Chappell’s view!
I loved the Judge’s ass chewing.
Could have giving him more time but 7 days
make a hole weak!

[RetiredTexasVet]

He’s probably not concerned. He can probably make more turning tricks with inmates and guards than he ever made as an actor.

[falcon99]

Definitely. 150 days for doing much more than the J6 political prisoners who have already spend over a year in jail. Our legal system does not exist any more.

He must be mentally ill. Clinically insane. His outburst was out of control and he has not admitted to his lies in any way.

[RushCrush]

All of it. Sounds like he already paid $10K and now the judge today ordered another $120k

[SpaceBar]

Five months is just enough to establish street cred without doing hard time.

[cgbg]

Of course some of the inmates may think gay sex is different than Jussie thinks it is....

;-)

[acoulterfan]

Yes, narcissism is a form of mental illness.

[SpaceBar]

His outburst may result in an evaluation by the jail shrink.

[roving]

I stomached about 15 minutes of his lawyers reading letters of praise for him before sentencing.

[God luvs America]

yup- meanwhile people who were escorted into the Capitol by police have rotted in jail for over a year.

"Soap on a rope to the cook county jail."

To some that's not punishment.

[Ken H]

I’ve heard the oatmeal at the Cook County slammer is terrible.

[griswold3]

Is there video of that?

[Rebelbase]

Video of Smollet “I am not suicidal”. He is afraid he’s gonna be found that he kilt himself in jail.

[GnuThere]

Just now saw this. Despicable and disrespectful - he should have had a contempt charge thrown in. He and his family are all about social justice and being victims, implying that this is racism.
In the long run he’ll end up profiting from this.

[Dogbert41]

Probably Kamala’s only accomplishment in the Senate was an anti-lynching bill immediately after the story broke. They weren’t strangers either.

[M1903A1]

Can’t be as bad as the cabbage rolls at the Terre Haute Federal Pen....

[Secret Agent Man]

And lets sentence Kamala too for all she did with this.
