  • Happening in Court:
    HAPPENING IN COURT: Before sentencing, the defense and prosecution have the right to present people to plead to the judge for a lighter or stronger sentence.
    Actor Jussie Smollett, 39, is scheduled to be sentenced for faking a hate crime attack. Court is scheduled to begin at 1 p.m. CT / 2 p.m. ET in Chicago, Illinois.
    Jurors convicted him in December of five out of six counts of disorderly conduct. He faces three years in prison for each of the five counts.
    Smollett, who is Black and gay, recruited brothers Abel Osundairo and Ola Osundairo of staging the fake racist, homophobic hate crime where he was the apparent victim, prosecutors said. He claimed his attackers yelled, “This is MAGA country,” and put a makeshift noose on him and poured bleach on him. Authorities said that he made it all up as a publicity stunt because he was unhappy with his pay on the show “Empire.”
    Special Prosecutor Dan Webb articulated Smollett’s orders to the brothers like this for jurors, saying, “I want you to attack me, but when you hit me, I want you to kind of pull your punches a bit because I don’t want to get seriously hurt.”
    Surveillance footage showed Smollett’s car circling the intersection of the faked attack to show the brothers where he wanted it to happen, Webb said.
    Smollett denied in testimony that he made it all up.
    Defense lawyer Nenya Uche argued that no physical or forensic evidence linked the actor to the alleged hoax. He asserted the brothers made up the hoax story for their own benefit. It was out of character for Smollett to stage the assault, putting himself in that position, Uche said.
    “Jussie was not a person who liked attention,” he said. “Even his publicist was frustrated at him for that. It’s fantasy.”

      Some people are genuinely shameless. In private, he'll laugh at the comedians making fun of him, instead of putting his face in his hands, because he lacks the ability to feel humiliation, he is a sociopath, an opportunist, and a manipulator. He should be getting the maximum time behind bars. I'd personally sentence him to 15 years, knowing full well he won't serve anywhere near that amount, but he will at least serve 1.5 years upon his appeals, he needs more time in there. I heard that there is some sort of law that 1 day behind bars is equal to two on probation or something, so he's really doing 75 days.

    When I saw his outburst, I just...sighed.
    Like goodness dude, you've already been busted; in all honesty, this was his last chance to make himself look better here, and he just...blew it. What he did was wrong, and I personally believe the sentence he recieved was fair, but even then I hoped at least he'd have it in him to own up to it. Alas, once a narcissist, always a narcissist I guess. Truly sad, the man could've used his platform for something good, and instead wasted it on obtaining clout. Welp, he got what he wanted I guess; I already see "I am innocent, and I am NOT suicidal!" becoming an ongoing meme for some time.
    It's almost comical the way this played out, or at least it would've been if it wasn't honestly quite sad. I'm not even a fan of the guy and I was still wishing he'd have some sort of redemption story. Hopefully he changes his ways and becomes a better person after serving time...you know, assuming he survives...

      Doubling down as a scumbag. It's inconsequentially great that you are not suicidal about being convicted and sentenced in regard to your fraudulent staged premeditated crimes that you committed by faking a hate crime as a means of promoting your own ends. You stand there at he last hour refusing responsibility for your actions, and playing the victim. If you were suicidal, and I am glad you are not, it would be due to your own abject moral and personal failures. Buck up Sunshine and think of all those you have adversely affected due to your horribly undeveloped character. Repent and seek Jesus.

    Can't even apologize at the end. This guy is so self entitled. This judge was great and said all the right things. He must have thought his acting skills were better. Well not so much. As someone who lives in Chicago, we normally don't go shopping at 2AM for eggs at Walgreens or Subway if it's sub zero outside.

    Good god what an actor he is. Holy dramatic! Those lawyers are completely unprofessional also. Talking while the judge is talking, shaking their heads when he was talking, Wow all of them are immature brats. 150 days isn’t nothing. He should have gotten more for being a turd 😂

      0:01 If Jussie Smollett at the very last moment had confessed, shown contrition, and apologized for his harmful behavior, the judge may very well have omitted any jail time in the sentence he handed down.
