Jussie Smollett Conviction Upheld


Last year actor Jussie Smollett was sentenced to 150 days in the Cook County Jail after he was convicted of disorderly conduct for staging a hate crime hoax in Chicago [click here if you missed that]. 

Today the conviction was upheld after Jussie appealed the ruling...

From Fox 32
An Illinois appeals court upheld Jussie Smollett's disorderly conduct conviction Friday.
The panel voted 2-1 to affirm the conviction.
Smollett's lawyers can appeal today's decision to the Illinois Supreme Court, which will have to decide whether to hear the case.
If the conviction is not overturned, Smollett will be required to finish his 150-day jail sentence that he received in 2022. Smollett was in jail for six days before his release due to his appeal.
Smollett's attorneys have said his right to due process was violated because he was prosecuted a second time after reaching an agreement with the Cook County state’s attorney’s office that led to his initial charges being dropped in 2019.

@2:14 he’s not the Tupac cause Tupac did his time. Look like he would go on ahead and do the time. He just doesn’t want to admit he lied trying to keep getting roles. Him and Jason Mitchell are some stupid negroes. But at least Jussie can get all the peen he wants behind bars

What kind of man is this loud and wrong? A fruitcake narcissist who thinks he's got anyone fooled. Go do the 5 MONTHS and stfu! That's no time at all given his crime. He's a fool and he deserves all the backlash he gets. Maybe if he just admitted that he lied his ass off we could all forgive him. Till then πŸ™
