He'll try anything! 'Immuno-compromised' Jussie Smollett complains about the risk of COVID in jail and says psych ward is harming his mental health as his lawyers ask for him to be freed (again) just five days into his 75 day sentence

Five days into his 75-day jail sentence, Jussie Smollett is now complaining that he is at risk of COVID in jail and is worried about his mental health so should be let out early.

Smollett, 39, is being held in the medical unit of the Cook County Jail.

His family say he is being held in the psych ward and that there's a note on the door of his cell saying he is at risk of self-harm - which they insist isn't true.

They say it speaks to Smollett's courtroom outburst where he insisted he wasn't suicidal and claimed if anything happened to him in jail, it was at someone else's hand.

Now, the family is asking for him to be released again. They submitted an emergency motion in the appellate court on Monday, claiming he should never have been convicted.

Good ole’ Nurse Ratched. What a great story, great movie. Too bad so many younger people have no idea it exists.

“Who knew jail could be unpleasant?”

A neighbor of ours missed/forgot a court date so they showed up to arrest him. I think he had to spend two weeks in jail. But, that wasn’t long enough to send him to an actual prison, so they kept him in the local jail.

He said most folks in there were held for a day or two. So the jail only served three meals. Scrambled eggs and toast for breakfast, PBJ for lunch, and two corn dogs with canned corn for dinner.

“Okay - two to three days I could handle that. But two weeks!? If I never see another corn dog in my life that will be fine by me!”

I don’t think there’s much mental health there to save.

After a few salad tossing and soap dropping events, he’ll feel right at home and will probably want to stay longer than his 150 weeks or whatever he was sentenced to.

He’s protected. The DNC, and most likely Kamala, put him up to this stunt. He’s probably partying it up in a private room, and just putting it out there that he’s in a psych ward. Probably doing the time of his life!

FAKE!

How would anyone get their phone number???!!!

Was it 2 guys wearing MAGA hats who made the call?

They are trying anything - too bad, so sad- every single celebrity asshole stood with clenched fists and holding signs ‘I stand with Jussie’ and smeared all Conservatives as violent racists because of his LIES.

People could have been killed because of that pathetic petulant jackass.

You just know he is crying like a little b!tch baby, sobbing in his pillow like a weak child.

For once, act like a MAN, you little piece of crap.

I tell my 91 year old father to behave himself when in the hospital or I will get Nurse Ratched assigned.

If he had shut his mouth when the cops first told him he had the right to remain silent this would have all quietly gone away.

Refusing to own the bad choices you make is precisely why the black community is so screwed up and destined for poverty and crime infested neighborhoods in perpetuity.

I'd guess throat irritation...from Big Mike and whomever Smollett is servicing...

Smollett might be in heaven or hell...while in jail.

If he’s immunocompromised, he probably caught it as part of a sandwich. He’s only 39, IIRC.
