Crime All charges dropped against Jussie Smollett

[Gregolian]

The part I don't get is the instant sealing of the Court file. MOST places you have to file a motion and argue why having the file a part of public record is a detriment to you.

Yikes. You really think the Illinois state government (or Chicago municipal government) is corrupted by....the influence of minor celebrities that fake hate crimes? As far as conspiracy theories go, that's pretty silly.

You really think Foxx initially recused herself from the case for no reason, and unrecused herself for no reason? You really think Smollett’s relationship with Dem politicians had nothing to do with the decision? You really believe that the police are livid over the decision because ... I guess because of nothing?

Pretty silly.

Does anyone still believe jussie is even gay? Nothing about this story or any of its actors should be believed.

Do you ever stop posting really dumb shit? I guess I shouldn't expect much from a phile apologist but month after month your posts are by far the stupidest shit I've ever read on sherdog.

Insanity.

- They have the Nigerians on video buying the red hats and masks and rope
- The Nigerians confessed to everything, including the letters
- They have phone records of Smollett in contact with them right before the attack
- They have the check
- Nigerians are all over the video surveillance

One month later: All charges dropped, he did community service before, the records are sealed.

It's utterly insane. And this will be a MSM story for a day. Another thing the Obama's will never be asked about.

Can't have Kamala Harris' buddy go to jail for a "modern day lynching" hoax related to her anti-lynching bill. Might affect her presidential campaign if you know what I mean.

@nac386 , you are one of the more sensible, and non hypocritical left leaning posters here...

what are you thoughts on this?

 

[MIKOM]

See how this works? He's basically gotten a plea deal that allows him to use prior community service as his punishment,

So can I do community service today and "bank" it up to get me out of a parking ticket, a robbery, a rape?
All the peado preists should get off also as they worked for their community their whole life.

This is a revelation.

I’m so tired of rich people not being charged with crimes. I feel like we’re living in some 3rd world country.

What are the chances some black guy from the hood gets his charges dropped like that?

If you are black and in Chicago it might work.

Political corruption? Injustice? Just another day in Chicago. Nothing to see here.

Well as long as he does his community service, he'll be OK.

I guess we should all just pretend that this sort of thing happens in ordinary criminal prosecutions because to think otherwise would be to believe in a ‘silly conspiracy,’ and we all know that Chicago politics do NOT work that way.

Jussie is a gay hero!

Putting the words "gay" and "hero" together is redundant.

 

[SaiWa]

that's some hardcore BS right here... He should do AT LEAST a year's worth of jail time if not more...

faking a crime should be a severe punishment...

 

[KnightTemplar]

As a long term attorney, I’ll say that most conceptions people have about the law tend to be wrong, but in two points they are absolutely right: having money is 90% of a successful defense, and possession is 90% of the law.

Can’t overstate how important it is to be the side holding the money.

Dude, EVERYTHING about this stinks. I honestly can't believe they exposed themselves this blatantly, all for a fucking actor. An actor, who just conveniently has connections to DC elite, and can all be easily traced to influencing this decision.

The Chicago PD is pissed. This is going to get interesting. This cover up is almost as blatant as Jussie's original hoax. It's laughable.

 

[KeepItRealist]

Exact same politicians who intervened to help Smollett: We need to get rid of the Electoral College so that Chicago decides our laws and we copy their values.

Nah, on the scale of this clusterfuck I'm confused how you can bank community service prior to the commission of a crime in order to not have to face any sort of punishment.

But past all that the instant sealing of the file is the biggest "wtf" for me cause I work in the legal system on felony shit.

Yep, the evidence cannot be hand-waved away.

String-pulling, bias and injustice with a nice touch of democrats linked like Obama and Kamala Harris.

I think leftists will get sick of this being brought up in future conversations. Quite funny with Mueller finding no Russia collusion so the "but Trump" will ring hollow.
