      >Jussie Smollett‘s conviction in an alleged hate crime hoax was overturned on Thursday by the Illinois Supreme Court.

      >The “Empire” actor was convicted in December 2021 of five felony counts of disorderly conduct for allegedly staging a hate crime against himself and was sentenced the following year to 150 days in county jail. In December 2023, his bid for an appeal was denied.

      >“We are aware that this case has generated significant public interest and that many people were dissatisfied with the resolution of the original case and believed it to be unjust,” the court’s opinion reads, according to the Chicago Tribune. “Nevertheless, what would be more unjust than the resolution of any one criminal case would be a holding from this court that the State was not bound to honor agreements upon which people have detrimentally relied.”

      Doesn’t do a thing to change public opinion. The damage is done.

      A complete joke but it can’t matter *that* much. If anything this only compounds the perversion of justice he committed and people will think worse of him for even longer.

      Either way it’s over bro. The public damage is done. Go apply for a realtor license or something.

      This was one of the most unnecessary lies a celebrity has ever told.

      He should’ve ran for president. Even the most heinous of his crimes would’ve been brushed off.

      I remember Dave Chappelle going after him, saying if you are racist and homophobic you don’t who this guy is as you can’t watch “Empire”

      Hopefully his future success will be limited to minimum wage work. I hope to never see his face or think of his name again.

      This fuckwad gets way too many breaks and he thinks he’s entitled to more. Takes away from people legitimately being targeted and attacked because he’s a whiney bitch

      I will boycott whatever stupid movie or show he appears in forever.

      Oo they won’t like this over at r/conservative. This was like their favorite story ever because they think one hate crime hoax equals all hate crimes are a hoax.

      Not only did he fabricate a racist hate crime against himself he now gets off scott free after claiming back people get the book thrown at them.

      Almost like every point he wanted to prove was proven in the opposite.

      ⚖️We must protect Jussie! He’s famously the first ever American to ever defraud Nigerians!

      Goddamn I remember hearing that whole story and being like, ‘huh, why would any of that happen at the time and place it happened and why was he going to Subway?’ But I didn’t want to victim blame because people can be assholes. But I was surprised and also not surprised that it turned out to be fake. What a deeply weird thing to do to … boost your career somehow?

      There’s a difference between a case being overturned because of legal technicalities / blunders by the prosecution and you being found innocent.

      Dude is a slime ball who staged a hate crime for God knows what reason.

      Narcissist and hypocrite. Nothing else to see herw

      Do he have a new record coming out? Christmas in Shitcago?

    30. richman678 on

      Well the damage was done. He’s not gonna be a thing after this either way.

      As an actor, I’d be ashamed that I’m known more for this role than any other that I’ve ever played.

    36. Uncle-Cake on

      Good for him! If a convicted felon can avoid prison and get elected, then nobody deserves to go to prison for anything short of 1st degree murder. Why should this guy go to jail while a convicted felon goes to the White House:?

      WAIT his name is actually Jussie? I thought his name was Jessie and Dave Chappell was calling him Jussie because he “didn’t want to name names” lmao
