He'll be sure to tell us when he's arriving at the jail, walking with fist upraised, wearing a mask again, not because of virus concerns, but because he wants to hide his face.

His family will then hold an impromptu press conference, and whatever their spokesman is saying, they'll all be in the background nodding. "Racism" and "injustice" and how whitey is keeping the black man from getting ahead. Then, they'll all get in a limousine and go out for a 3000 dollar dinner at a premier restaurant.

He has no credibility now - if he gets attacked in jail, he's already cried wolf.

Yep, Para, he is so predictable as to have become a cliche’. What an embarrassing disgrace.

His attorney said today they will appeal to the SCOTUS. That will be his final appeal and if he loses, he will serve his time.

Doubtful that the court takes up the case since it's local and doesn't have national implications.

I'm no legal expert but I think it's apparent that SCOTUS will not hear the case.

I think SCOTUS will hear just enough of the case that they unanimously deny certiorari, stating for the first time ever “Go. Fuck. Yourself.”

The sad part is that of the 3 judge panel 1 sided with Juicy.

"Appellate Justice Freddrenna Lyle would have thrown out the convictions. She said it was 'fundamentally unfair' to appoint a special prosecutor and charge Smollett when he had already performed community service as part of a 2019 deal with Cook County prosecutors to close the case.

'It was common sense that Smollett was bargaining for a complete resolution of the matter, not simply a temporary one,' Lyle said.

Special prosecutor Dan Webb was appointed to look into why the case was dropped. A grand jury subsequently restored charges against Smollett in 2020, and Webb concluded there were 'substantial abuses of discretion' in the state’s attorney office during the earlier round.

Smollett was not immune to a fresh round of charges, appellate Justices David Navarro and Mary Ellen Coghlan said in the majority opinion.

'The record does not contain any evidence that (prosecutors) agreed Smollett would not be further prosecuted in exchange for forfeiting his bond and performing community service,' they said."

Jussie Smollett completes a five month rehab program for substance abuse... after appealing his conviction for hate crime hoax kidnapping


Jussie Smollett has completed a five month stint in rehab for substance abuse.

The former Empire star, 41, finished the outpatient program earlier this month, according to a source who spoke with TMZ.

While in rehab the actor is said to have focused on his health and being consistent with his workouts.

Jussie checked himself into an outpatient treatment facility back in October after what his reps called an 'extremely difficult past few years.'

Smollett is currently trying to get his December 2021 conviction for faking an anti-gay, racist attack on himself, and then lying to Chicago police about it, overturned again.

A source also told the publication that Jussie's new management team is working hard as they gear him up for the release of his new film and other projects.

A spokesperson for the actor said in a statement back when Smollett checked into rehab: 'Jussie has had an extremely difficult past few years. He has quietly been working very hard for some time now and we are proud of him for taking these necessary steps.'

It's not known what exactly Smollett was in rehab for, but testimony during the trial hinted at heavy drug use.

Last month it was reported that Smollett is trying to get his conviction for faking an attack overturned again - this time claiming he should never have been prosecuted in the first place.

He is arguing he shouldn't have been charged with felony disorderly conduct in December 2021 because prosecutors made a deal to dismiss the first indictment.

Smollett's attorneys filed legal documents with Illinois Supreme Court detailing the deal, which involved him doing community service and forfeiting his bond in return for charges being dropped.

The actor is taking his appeal to the state's highest court after it was previously denied by the Appellate Court of Cook County.

Smollett was jailed in 2021 for staging an anti-gay, racist hate crime on himself and filing a false police report in January 2019.

'What should have been a straightforward case has been complicated by the intersection of politics and public outrage,' Smollett's attorneys wrote in their filing with the state's highest court.

During the police probe into the incident, Chicago cops concluded that Smollett had hired brothers Abimbola and Olabinjo Osundairo to carry out the crime.

-More at linky.
