As a casual observer with no political axe to grind in this at all, it's pretty bizarre with the cops still saying he's guilty and they have more proof and him saying he hired the two goofs to be personal trainers and not pull a scam.
It could be that the prosecution didn't think they could win and the 2 goofs he hired were unreliable as witnesses. And why forfeit his ten grand bail. I'd want it back. Very strange. More news to come I'm sure. |

OK, the (also African-American) head of Chicago Police still says Smollett committed a hoax. Proving that the real issue isn't race or politics -- it's the totally disparate treatment of the wealthy and well-connected vs. everybody else.

But he forfeits a 100K bond so basically that was his fine instead of jail time.

If there were any evidence proving it wasn't a hoax, we'd have seen it. Smollett, his attorneys, and others would be shouting it from the rooftops. |

Part of my issues from the beginning was the supposed motive by Smollett which was concocted by someone that he did it to gain sympathy resulting in more money/higher salary from the producers of Empire. Generally people who produce content would prefer that people weren't tainted or controversial as it affects rating and people watching, and not for the better. If you want an elevated status in the public's mind, do charity work, donate to non political causes etc. Being a victim is not seen as a great asset. |

I just don’t understand why he is still working. Roseanne posts a bad tweet and is fired and this guy tried to physically start a race war and they are just letting it go.

Lets face it the prosecutors office is a political animal and there are other considerations made on whether cases go forward. And that also has to do with police being charged in killing people. This stuff isn't as above board as it seems to be or maybe should be. |

My initial reaction was the two perps/conspirators would melt on the stand when questioned by the defense or their stories fell apart recently and the prosecutors office thought it better to walk away from it. |

Even if he made it up the charges were ridiculous. And yes, i think he should have gone to jail, but really?16 felonies. No way Charging him with making a fake police report and not going all crazy maybe would have been a sensible option to begin with and everyone is happy, justice is served.

Will never know, but this certainly stinks. Perhaps the witnesses were paid off? Again, we will never know.
