It’s not double-jeopardy, since he never faced charges the first time.

“ The new charges involve Smollett having allegedly made four separate false reports to the police,”

Jussie Smollett, a now-former actor on the show Empire??

Somebody on FR had assured my nothing was going to happen to Smollett and all this would make him a big star.

Trying to recall who told me that, without going into the archives.

Indicted, and [ yawn ] not going to spend a day in jail!

He paid for a racial attack to occur, and lied about it. How is that not prosecutable?

The President cannot pardon state crimes, only federal crimes. State governors can pardon state crimes.

But it doesn’t matter, because this article is from 2/11/2020 — it’s over a year old.

That wasn’t me, but you’ve got to admit that’s the normal path of things.
