EMPIRE FALLS: The actor learned his long-awaited fate after being convicted last year of staging attack against himself.
When Smollett returned to Cook County court on Thursday – after much back-and-forth by his defense team and prosecutors over four hours – he was sentenced to thirty months felony probation, restitution to the city of Chicago in the amount of $120,106, a fine of $25,000, and 150 days in the Cook County Jail.
Smollett’s defense team, helmed by lead defense attorney Nenye Uche, tried to get the conviction thrown out by pointing out what they allege was a bevy of"flagrant errors" that worked against the actor during the course of the Smollett trial. "Anyone looking at this jury could tell it was not a jury of Mr. Smollett’s peers in Chicago," she orated in defense of the actor and singer.Court testimony on behalf of Smollett heard many from the performer’s personal life speak out in support of his character and charity efforts.
"We’ve known Jussie since he was a baby," the memorandum stated and added that Smollett"has already suffered."Prosecutor Sam Mendenhall also read a signed statement from Chicago Police Chief David Brown that requested Smollett pay restitution in the amount of $130,106 to the department given the resources deployed in order to properly investigate the legitimacy of the alleged hate crime.
