This highly appropriate comment was posted anonymously after Jussie Smollett was sentenced to jail time- pretty much sums the situation up:
Ladies and Gentlemen, this is what greed gets you. He wasn’t FAMOUS ENOUGH. He wanted more. And well, he sort of got it. Just not in the way he wanted. It’s almost like a “Twilight Zone” or “Black Mirror” episode if you really think about it.

That headline works two ways. He also wasn’t famous (or white) enough to prance through our corrupt judicial system and get away Scott free.
This man used racism in a most ugly way. While we are trying to heal the divide in our country, he lied over and over about a non-existent attack and blamed it on race.
The judge called him out in spectacular fashion. This turd deserves everything he gets and I hope he never gets another acting job.
Even as he was leaving he made a spectacle of himself obviously this man has no shame.
This fool is calling the race card? Who is he kidding? He did this to himself, pure and simple. I hope he never acts again. He’s too stupid to get it.
Lock him up.
