    You get the bail money back. I think more concerning for him is he should definitely lose his spot on Empire, and it will take a long time to get another gig like that again.

    I hope they fine him for every penny he wasted from the department, and then double it.

    actually I'd respect it more if you honestly believed "innocent until proven guilty"

    Innocent until proven guilty went away from this board years ago most don't want the facts to come out anyway.

    that might be so (about this forum), but I think in the particular case of Smollette, most of the facts have come out already

    Explain “real racism” because Trump has been called a racist incessantly since becoming President but this event is not, I need to understand for future reference.

    And last night Fox News had 8 articles about Smollett linked on their front page, and not a single one about the Coast Guard terrorist that wanted to kill liberals. Cable news networks are biased, we’re all aware.

    Edit: I just checked again. Now there are 10 separate items about Smollett on Foxnews.com.

    Trump's controversial statements have been condemned by many observers in the U.S. and around the world as racist .Which he was not accused of before he ran for President some have stated but he was accused after he took out a full page ads calling for the return of the death penalty in several New York City newspapers. The ads were published a few weeks after a 28-year-old woman was raped while jogging in Central Park. Five men were arrested for the attack:

    So, Jussie is apparently a bad guy motivated by greed. Props to the police chief and the way he handled the announcement. And props to Chicago for investigating it and finding out the truth. Jussie could have caused a lot more damage than he did, but the citizens of Chicago waited on the truth. Pretty good example from Chicago re: how to deal with potential hate crimes. Not sure what there is for everyone to debate. The system worked.

    "The right this" BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!!

    One of these days you'll WAKE THE F UP and realize people on both sides are F'd up. Funny how there's people like you on both sides who have to put LABELS on freaking everything and at the end of the day are just miserable and all they know how to do is fan the flames.
