Actor Jussie Smollett, from center, departs after an initial court appearance at the Leighton Criminal Courthouse, in Chicago on Feb. 24, 2020.“Motions for supervisory orders are extraordinary remedies and not usually granted," William Quinlan, an attorney for Smollett, said in a statement."We believed the unique circumstances of this case warranted filing the motion. We will now follow the standard appellate procedure.
The dismissal stunned many in the legal community, especially after Foxx initially recused herself from the case because she said she had contact with one of Smollett's family members about the case.arrest in February 2019Last month, Smollett's legal team argued in an emergency motion that a Cook County judge's appointment of a special prosecutor in August was legally precarious, particularly after all that happened in 2019.
The actor, who is African American and gay, told police last year that his attackers wrapped a rope around his neck and poured a chemical, possibly bleach, over him.He was written off the last season of"Empire" after doubts about his story surfaced.Melanie Kucera and Diana Dasrath

Because you know, “white supremacy “ hahahahaha
Every lawyer's 'dream client'---an idiot with money.
His sentence should be doubled because he's a total idiot. This clown got a get out of jail card and then tried to run another scam on the same people that gave him a pass. He deserves everything he gets.
VLabarum I bet if they make him a deal now he will tell who put him up to this.
That’s great news. You may disagree. Sorry, but I just couldn’t wrap my head around his story. Way too much theatrics, like a TV soap opera.

They want to lynch him. Always a black man. White people don’t go through a trial twice for a dismissed case.
The uneducated MSM does not know that Supreme Courts are not required to and do not 'give explanations' Illinois high court put out terse notices, saying that Smollett's motions to halt the case & to disqualify its special prosecutor were denied. 'No explanations were given'
What happened to that smirk smile of his? Not as funny now hu? JussieSmollet
gotta face it jussie
Poor jussie you are not Hillary Clinton you cannot lie and make shit up and get away with it .
Bwahahahaha
Let's hope whatever sick twisted mind thought of attacking JussieSmollett serves prison time. 😁
