    Prosecutors drop all criminal charges against Jussie Smollett

    Holy SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Attorneys for Jussie Smollett said Tuesday that all criminal charges against the "Empire" actor and singer have been dropped. Smollett had been charged with falsifying a police report by claiming he was the victim of a racist and homophobic attack.

    "Today all criminal charges against Jussie Smollett were dropped and his record has been wiped clean of the filing of this tragic complaint against him," Smollett's attorneys said in a statement. "Jussie was attacked by two people he was unable to identify. He was a victim. He was vilified and made to appear as a perpetraitor as a result of false and inappropriate remarks made to the public causing an inappropriate rush to judgment."

    He mailed a fake anthrax letter to himself. Feds could still nail him for that. I hope he gets the counseling / therapy that he needs

                    It is strange, especially after a grand jury and alleged accomplices confessing. Going to be interesting to hear exactly what happened.
                    My speculation? Chicago is aware of impending federal charges and is more than willing to drop the whole shit show in their laps. Or the accomplices recanted their story ($), which would likely mean charges for them. Not sure what else it could be.

                        Good. I think he has learned his lesson.
                        No need to spend any time or money punishing him for doing something stupid.
                        He's ruined his career. That's punishment enough. Now he needs to figure out what is next in his life

                            I never heard of anyone getting federal charges for a false police report.
                            False reporting charges are local not federal.

                            And what charges? If he lied about the attack being real, then there was no crime except
                            a false report.

                                How do you even form thoughts like this?

                                No fucking way they dropped the charges because "he learned his lesson" and they want to save money.

                                    The federal charges are for would be for the letter hoax, not filing a false police report with Chicago police. But maybe they won't charge him either. Won't know until full story comes out.

                                        Looks like he dealt his way out of it.

                                        Here's what prosecutors said in a statement:

                                        "After reviewing all of the facts and circumstances of the case, including Mr. Smollett’s volunteer service in the community and agreement to forfeit his bond to the City of Chicago, we believe this outcome is a just disposition and appropriate resolution to this case."

                                          Obviously Trump wasn't indicted to save time and money.

                                            I have seen zero proof that he mailed anything.

                                              They aren't talking about the "attack". They are talking about him mailing himself a threatening letter to the studio filled with white powder. THAT is a federal offense.

                                              No fucking way they dropped the charges because "he learned his lesson" and they want to save money.
                                              I never said "they" did anything.

                                              I gave MY OPINION of the situation. Nothing more, nothing less.

                                              I'll type it slower for ya (lol): IN MY OPINION he has learned his lesson and I am glad they dropped the charges.
                                              It's a waste of time and money to continue on over something he did that just dumb.

                                                  Trump supporters literally make shit up and say it's true and then shake their heads back and forth when you tell them they are lying again.

                                                    But you are aware he was under federal investigation, right? I didn't say he was getting charged, I speculated Chicago knew something about impending charges. I didn't say he was guilty of a mail hoax. Don't be so defensive, brotherman.

                                                          Kim Foxx made the decision. She has the right to do so, as the elected official with purview. She may have taken a number of factors into account, such as the public nature of the matter, the disproportionate number of felonies charged, or the fact that rapists routinely get off with 2-3 year sentences while the crime of filing a false report is technically non-violent. She also may have considered that her constituency would want her to prioritize other prosecutions. Regardless, what is done is done.

                                                              Bottom line : People call in fake shit all the time and don't get charged.

Or the accomplices recanted their story ($), which would likely mean charges for them. Not sure what else it could be.

She thought Chicago's gun laws were too strict (in terms of sentencing criminals) so she started dropping or lessening charges. Now thugs commit gun crimes and the gun portion of the charges is often dropped.

                                                                        FOP accuses Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx of interfering in Jussie Smollett investigation

                                                                        CHICAGO (WLS) -- The president of the Chicago police union has sent a letter to the Justice Department alleging that Cook County State's Attorney Kim Foxx interfered in the police investigation of "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett.

                                                                        Foxx had recused herself from the case, but Kevin Graham, Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) president, said that was insufficient and wants the feds to determine whether she broke any laws.

                                                                        "That recusal is wholly insufficient. In order for Ms. Foxx to properly charge and try this case, her entire office should have recused itself and a special prosecutor been appointed," Graham said in a statement.

                                                                        Smollett, who faces 16 felony counts of disorderly conduct for allegedly filing a false police report, claims he was the victim of a hate crime in Chicago's Streeterville neighborhood in January. However, police say it was a hoax and that Smollett hired two brothers to carry out the fake attack.

                                                                                        Not exactly. Bail Bond companies charge an upfront service fee of 10-15% of the bond amount. Likely the 10k is what originally Smollett paid the bondsmen.

                                                                                        The bondsmen essentially have a line of credit via a bond policy they maintain. Receiving their service fee from Smollett they execute paperwork with the court, assuring Smollett will appear in court. If Smollett doesn't appear, it causes the bondsmen to then pay the court the 100k.

                                                                                        The 100k bond is paid up directly by Smollett or through the bondsmen, which Smollett would need to immediately reimburse.

                                                                                          If that's not the case, then someone is just letting this guy off because he donated his bond and the charges were excessive?

                                                                                          Which is it?
