Had Jussie Smollett's case gone to trial, it's unlikely that any of the results would have included time in prison for the 'Empire' actor, the top prosecutor in Chicago said
Had Jussie Smollett's case gone to trial, it's unlikely that any of the results would have included time in prison for the"Empire" actor, the top prosecutor in Chicago said Wednesday.
State's Attorney for Cook County Kim Foxx told CNN affiliate WLS on Wednesday that even if the celebrity had been found guilty of filing a false police report, the punishment was more than likely going to be what he eventually paid. Chicago police release a portion of Smollett investigation reports after his charges are dropped"If he's found guilty on a Class 4 the likelihood was he was going to get some type of, perhaps, restitution, community service, not prison," she said.
