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.

    75 days is conditional on good behavior. He gets one day of credit for each day of good behavior.

    Who knew jail could be unpleasant? This is five days into the 150 he is sentenced to serve and the 75 he might serve if he behaves, which he isn’t. Some folks are slow learners.

    He really IS the Left. No apologies, never wrong, identity identity identity. Send these demons back to hell already.

    When one uses “compromised” when referring to this clown, it’s proceeded by “mentally”.

    So’s he's telling the world he has AIDS.
 Thankfully, his cell mates have access to a lot of free condoms to prevent that from hurting them.

    This jerk pulls a silly stunt and he’s in the news non stop for EVER. Silly stunt? Not quite. 
This habitual liar attempted to start a race war, trying to portray millions of Trump supporters as violent racist.

    Since he’s already played out the worn race card, has to turn to other causes.

    I went to the County Jail once in college. Ended up building its four story replacement later in life. The sheriff remembered the odd incident that precipitated my first visit when I told him about it. He had been a new deputy just a few years older than me when it occurred.

    Who are Smolett’s shysters and who is paying them?
Is it time to make some un-American “foundations” TAXABLE?

    I’d guess Smollett and Obama are very familiar with sore throats.......
