Also, there is the federal legal angle since the hoax threat letter is reportedly being investigated by the FBI. Jussie probably sent it to himself, but can they prove anything? Who knows, but federal investigation and charges are at least a possibility.

Here’s hoping he lied to the FBI about some points and the federal attorney chooses to prosecute.
Yes, there must be relevant federal statutes about false reporting and perjury etc. since he would have been telling FBI investigators the fake story about the letter (and would have committed some kind of crime by sending the hoax threat letter through the mail, reportedly with some white powder!!). But what can be legally PROVED is different from what we can see is obvious/likely to have happened. Unless Jussie falls apart and confesses (unlikely) he may be able to brazen his way through, or at least disappear into the usual “celebutard rehab” story to recover.
Still the federal aspect may prove to be what really does him in, if he did manage to bring in any serious counter-terrorism investigators with the white powder angle (I recall reading that there was white powder in the hoax letter, although haven’t seen more about that).
