We talk about conflict-resolution time and time again and this is an escalated dispute so we will work this case through the night and we will find the person responsible,” Lt. Ralph Woolfolk said. “You know who you are so go ahead and turn yourself in.” Based on ballistic evidence and surveillance footage, police said they are close to making an arrest.

    Jussie Smollett Says Judge Sentenced Him to Jail Because He’s Black

    Jussie Smollett has been in the headlines since being sentenced to 150 days in jail for staging a homophobic, race-based attack in 2019. Many tried to come to the defense of the actor, with people like Samuel L. Jackson and his wife asking the judge for leniency in his case. However, the judge ended up issuing jail time along with fines amounting to $145,000, and probation after jail. Now, Smollett has reportedly given his take on the sentencing.

    According to sources directly in contact with Smollett, the actor expected to receive some form of jail time. Smollett reportedly told his lawyers ahead of sentencing that he felt he’d get more because he is Black. The actor also says his situation is more proof of systemic racism in the justice system.

    A representative for the Cook County Chief Judge’s office was asked about the situation, and responded “judges can’t comment on pending cases, and it’s still pending.” As of now, Smollett will be held in protective custody while in jail, while an officer with body cameras monitor his cell.
