    no one is cheering him on

    I think Trump will get away with all his alleged wrong doings too, especially sense he is the President and very rich, he will never be charged or serve a day in prison regardless of the crime ... doesn't mean I am cheering him on... just being realistic

    many alleged wrong doings, but I doubt Trump will ever be brought to justice even if guilty

    Yes, but it shouldn't be the case since it is a genuinely good thing that when blacks (whites, Asians, Hispanics, Muslims, Jews, Christians, the aged, handicapped, homosexuals or anyone else) make a similar claim (that they were a victim of a hate crime) this not be presumed to be true.

    This is common sense, borne by all of our daily experience as we go about without perpetrating or ever witnessing hate crimes, we know these sometimes are reported, and sometimes are hoaxes. I think this is what the critical left is unable to accept, for them it should be presumed that anyone who claims membership in any group that has ever suffered any sort of discrimination, should be presumed to be the victim of hate crimes. They believe this is a big problem, that it happens all the time and that only the perpetrators of such crimes deny the magnitude of the problem.

    very true and not only that many wont be believed in the future when it is true

    but politicians need to take a step back from these things and not try to be the first to respond, just comment, "it sounds horrible if true, but I am waiting for more details to emerge before commenting"

    yeah, the brothers are guilty without a doubt, all police need to do is show Jussie was the one that hired them and not an enemy of Jussie... but at this point not looking good for Jussie - I think Jussies bank or phone records are already known by police and that is why arrest issued, but we will have to wait and see

    About that -

    You may still be right regarding his plea-bargaining down to a misdemeanor. Can't have the locals rioting and all.

    Yes, we all should have waited for more facts, some saw troublesome inconsistency right away, others took longer, some quieted down their denunciations, others waited too long to admit what has become obvious.

    Here is the opinion of a Local TV Legal Analyst.

    "This is known out of 26th and California as a heater case,” said CBS 2 legal analyst Irv Miller.

    Miller says the charge carries the possibility Smollett could serve one to three years in jail if convicted.


    “Do I think that he's that he’s going to end up getting some jail time if in fact he’s convicted of it? And he is presumed to be innocent. Well, it’s hard to say because he really has no felony background.
    I understand he did have a little problem out in L.A. with giving false information and a DUI, but under Illinois law there’s a presumption of probation in cases like this

    And persons, such as yourself, would have called him a racist if he had done so.

    A citizen reported a crime and people responded to that report saying that the assault was horrible. There is nothing inherently wrong with that. The problem occurs when Trump is blamed for the attack with no proof. And as it turns out the attack was staged to place blame on Trump.

    One would think that it you would care enough about credibility to at least try to make some not so erroneous predictions but I guess not. There are two investigations going right now. There is one in front of a grand jury and there is one that is being done by the feds for the letter that went through the mail.


    Felony criminal charges against Jussie Smollett approved, Chicago police say

    Authorities in Chicago on Wednesday approved felony criminal charges against "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett, hours after he was "officially classified as a suspect in a criminal investigation" for allegedly "filing a false police report" in connection with his Jan. 29 attack claims, police said.

    The update in the case was provided by the department's Chief of Communications Officer Anthony Guglielmi on Twitter, who said the Cook County State's Attorney's Office approved the "Disorderly Conduct / Filing a False Police Report" charges.


    "Detectives will make contact with his legal team to negotiate a reasonable surrender for his arrest," he continued.

    So far, Smollet has not surrendered, Chicago police told Fox News. His attorneys were made aware of the charges.


    Earlier Wednesday evening, Guglielmi tweeted that detectives on the case were laying out evidence to a grand jury in Cook County.
