2020 Dem hopefuls, Senators Cory Booker and Kamala Harris, rushed to judgment after Jussie Smollett claimed white-racist Trump supporters ambushed him with bleach and a noose. Both Senators called the hoax a “modern-day lynching” and used the phony scandal to pass an anti-lynching bill through Congress. Republicans, who claim to be opposed to federal hate-crime laws, gave their unanimous support to the bill out of fear of being labeled as “pro-lynching.” -GEG
It looks like Jussie Smollett is going to get a mere slap on the wrist for allegedly lying to police and manufacturing a fake hate crime against himself to libel half the country as evil racists.
From ABC 7 Chicago:
“Empire” actor Jussie Smollett has been charged with one count of felony disorderly conduct for filing a false police report, the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office said Wednesday evening.
Smollett is due in court in Chicago at 1:30 p.m. Thursday. Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said CPD detectives will make contact with Smollett’s legal team to “negotiate a reasonable surrender for his arrest.”
Smollett is not in custody at this time. Guglielmi told ABC News police are not actively looking for the actor because “this is not a violent crime,” but said “the longer this goes, the more we have to do what we have to do.”
Smollett faces at most one and a half years in prison. The Nigerian brothers who allegedly helped him stage this fake hate crime are not facing any charges.
