Jussie Smollett reacts to jail sentence for staging hate crime: 'I am not suicidal

Judge James Linn also sentenced him to 30 months of probation, and said the actor will have to pay restitution of $120,106 to the city of Chicago, along with paying a $25,000 fine.

After delivering his decision, the judge asked Smollett if he had any questions.

"I would just like to say to you, Your Honor, that I am not suicidal. That's what I would like to say," said Smollett. "I am not suicidal."

Smollett's voice began to rise, saying once again, "I am not suicidal."

"I am innocent, and I am not suicidal," the actor said.

"If anything happens to me when I go in there, I did not do it to myself," said Smollett. "And you must all know that."

High level democrats put him up to this, including kamala.

Yup. That was the word. Cory Booker, too. As I recall, there was supposition that the "attack" on Jussie was supposed to get the media ball rolling for a proposed "anti-lynching" bill.

What a complete little bitch he is. Just one question, though... are you suicidal, Juicy? Cuz you sure tried to kill your own career.

“I am innocent, and I am not suicidal.” Yeah, right buddy. If that was true, then there is not reason to mention it. Suicide is for selfish losers who don’t care about the five people that would miss them.

Jussie Smollett got the last laugh on Subway.
He just won 5 months of free foot longs.
