The jury of six men and six women deliberated for more than nine hours over Wednesday and Thursday.Live UpdatesA disorderly conduct charge for a false crime report is a Class 4 felony and punishable by up to three years in prison and a $25,000 fine. Cook County Judge James Linn will have discretion in imposing a concurrent or consecutive sentence for each count at a later date.
These are the key moments in the case"Who was in charge of this thing?" special prosecutor Dan Webb asked. "Jussie was," Bola Osundairo told the jury. Defense attorneys also called seven witnesses to testify, highlighted by Smollett himself. Over eight hours on Monday and Tuesday, he laid out his version of the incident, attempted to cast doubt on the brothers' true motivations and explained his distrust for police.
hahahahahahahahahaha!!!!
Smuliyeeeooo needs to calm the fuck down...
Hehehe
What about convicting the Lying King?
Good
Lol
I feel bad for those really hurt by hate. Jussie is a disgrace

Smart chicago jury
He wanted attention and he found it
Hhaahahhahhaa
Will Don Lemon be fired as well with tipping off Jussie Smollett?
Still support Jussie, what did he do to me? Nothing! if he did lie, he lied on terrible people, im ok with that lol
Juss in time for the holidays AND Juss doing time for the holidays
He should be made an exampleof pint blank. There are peopledoing 20 years for these type of lies. Who were not celebrities
Chicago PD offered him an easy out by just apologizing and paying for cost of Investigation. But he decided to double down and now he's facing jail time and he will still have to pay. Plus money he spent for defense lawyers. Stupid.
Good. Now let’s charge DonLemon appropriately for his proximity to this. CNN should’ve been terminated him a long time ago. He race bates. Incites controversy and tension. And is a low key bigot. And his interaction in this is that much more evidence.
You were All Duped😂
Just another example of how CNN gets things wrong and rushes to judgement. I don't know why anyone would watch or pay attention to their fake news stories.
donlemon
Thats just a shame, there are enough real ones to report on, if he had chosen to. Still, daily.
Smollett should be jailed for 10 years minimum - inciting hate around the nation! Like yelling fire in crowded theater! Pure evil!
What have they said after the verdict? Crickets.
Hit after hit, injury after injury, bruise after bruise, pain after pain, fear after fear, tears, every day, throughout my pregnancy 💔 and now my Son is paying all the consequences ❤️JUSTICE4US ❤️justice4noahisaacandamandagarcia
Good
Wow! You're actually covering this despite having spent so many calories pushing the racist narrative? You guys are at best a novela with little to zero news worthiness. But those Billionaires will keep you afloat despite your dismal viewership.
'What happened today to Jussie Smollett must never be tolerated in this country,' . . . President Biden.
He didn't kill anyone, I really don't believe he did such a thing. Why would he risk his reputation, his success on that, those brothers concocted that up on their own. It's a shame cook county would waste tax payers money prosecuting Jessie for something so insignificant please
Why some celebrities are supporting this lying douche bag is beyond me
CNN covered the fake attack as if they knew it was fact. CNN is partially responsible. I can’t wait to see don lemon go down as well.
Ol juicy was lying. Shocker
Good!!
I’ll bet he’s kicking his own ass this morning. 😠
Amazing issues Hitman in South Korea is lawyer he was hit one people but lawyer still work he's job. It's incredible situation. How can do work for lawyer. Hitman South Korea Lawyer.
Huge waste of money !
Calling out the spread of hate, division, and lies to divide our country.. I hope he sees jail time for many years...
Me was like
He needed to be found guilty
A CNN Business article appeared in my feed taking the right-wing media to task for being “propagandists”, AFTER stating they’re “bad-faith personalities” “(predictably) attack the news media” & they say “everything is a hoax”. Propaganda covering propaganda? Spideymeme
Joe Biden JoeBiden United States official What happened today to must never be tolerated in this country. We must stand up and demand that we no longer give this hate safe harbor; that homophobia and racism have no place on our streets or in our hearts. We are with you, Jussie
justice prevailed...
Juicy Smollier ran outta juice.
He will get community service ill bet you the house on it.!!! P.O.S.
He needs help. Someone check on him.
Media orgs which favorably embrace political and celebrity social issues will 'always' get egg on face long-term. CNN is a perfect example. FOX will soon learn, as well.
What a complete failure.
POTUS AOC VP have commented on this or retracted their earlier tweets?
Not exactly the masterplan in retrospect
He could’ve just dated a kardashian if he wanted to be popular.
Truth prevails!
Imagine if it was a white guy falsely claiming he was a victim of black on white crime which in reality is higher per capita wise then the other way around. He would be accused of racism and would be told right away we live in a racist society
He committed a hate crime by trying to frame the Caucasian population….. breeder of race hate….. make an example of him!
የዛሬው ቀን ስም 'በቃ አይጣፍጥም' ይባላል። የበሰለው ወይን ላይ ዘላ ዘላ መድረስ ያቃታት ቀበሮ 'በቃ አይጣፍጥም' ብላ ተመለሰች። የጌች መግለጫ ስታይል።
Celebrities sometimes like to play as victims for their bases.
He’ll probably get a stiffer sentence than those actually convicted of hate crimes.
Ok.
He must blame marijuana
who cares he's not gonna go to jail
SHAME
NoMore
It’s not the “guilty verdict” it’s what he did that makes it harder. He falsified a hate crime and had the gullible media, MSNBC CNN and others support the false narrative he created.and he’ll get off easy.
😂😂😂
Good
Don Lemon must be heart broken that his lower has been found guilty.
And to think even Biden was a fool to support him originally!!!
Open auditions for 'West Block Story'. 😜
Justice
Imagine getting attacked by someone you know & your attackers tell the police you paid them to do it & the police believe them & charge you with the crime. JussieSmollett
Love watching people twist in the wind finding out this guy is actually a liar and fraud and fake. He set bacon our ability to really hold people of real hate crimes accountable by doing this just to get publicity. Well he got - and good riddance. We don’t need people like this
Wow!
I hope his sentence is not as severe as lying about a real treasonous coup (attempt).
Lemon …
Kim Foxx needs to resign
You mean ex-actor Juicy Smoolet?
👏🏾👏🏾 that took way too long.
Now it’s CNN’s turn, lol.
The hurt, the guilt, the misconstrued sentiments given be CNN must hurt, right?
CNN APOLOGIZE PLEASE TO ALL TRUMP SUPPORTERS!?
Good to justice work again. He was guilty as hell
When is CNN going to apologize to all the 'Trumpsters' for, yet again, promoting a false narrative? Shouldn't the F.E.C. begin investigating main stream media for its blatant election swaying propaganda?
Guilty Juice? Juicy Guilt?
YET CNN BOUGHT IN HOOK LINE AND SINKER INTO THIS FAKE HATE CRIME A YEAR AGO CNN COULDNT GET ENOUGH OF JUICY
FoxNews is covering the Smollett verdict like he was Lee Harvey Oswald and covering the Trump ruling as it were a parking ticket.
Christi_Paul They lied to America
Jussie.....the first American to scam Nigerians. Hahahaha
Sandwiches!?
They lied to America
MAGA!!
I bet ya he’s kicking himself for this
Placing bets on how long it takes for him to get butt fucked in jail. Anyone want to place one?
If he were white, he would have been found not guilty DefundThePolice
Being in the media means never saying, “Im sorry”. Lied About Russian Collision. Lied about Kyle Rittenhouse Lied For & About Jussie Smollett!! They just act as if it never happened and think you are supposed to continue to accept their reporting as “informed”.
He deserves and should be. Justice is served!!
Cue the 'white supremacy' in 3...2...1
Someone check on donlemon
Hey CNN how you guys gonna twist this one to help your narrative? Just blame it on Trump supporters.
This has got to hurt
Once again, the media (in particular CNN) and our government leaders (in this case, Kamala and Biden) can no longer be trusted... You should be ashamed.
Imagine that. CNN abs everyother liberal “news “ we’re promoting this obvious hoax as legit.
He’s gonna get more time than Kyle rittenhouse lol
I'm from the old school, and the words that they would use back then, Jussie, Jussie, you know better, lord have mercy. Time to paid the piper brother. SMH
Crazy
Good! Damn liar....he's not even good at lying
I knew it! I wish he wouldn't have dragged this sh!t saying he's innocent. 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 Hate crime is not a joke.
He now qualifies to run for office as a Republican
Damn Jussie, not only are you going to jail and have ruined your entire career but you have now made it significantly harder for ACTUAL hate crime victims to get justice. All for what? The possibility of more film roles. What a shame. jussiesmollet jussiesmollettrial guilty
I have no problem with the verdict because harassment should be taken seriously no matter what color or sexual orientation of the person and this clown actions may tarnish a real problem that someone is having
Cant wait what tfg and company will get for staging insurrection?
Jussie will get a slap on the wrist. . . Time for CNN to fire Don Lemon!
Black Excellence 😂😂
Now he needs prison
wolfblitzer The main thing is that Smollett said the assaliants were wearing MAGA hats and it was targeted towards Trump ! This is a LIBERAL HATE CRIME!
I just want to know who paid him to do it...
How a person with such great taste in clothes could be so stupid...
im still tryna figure out what all of this was for…
Monegrosvs
Who cares?
Good.
Lock him up!!!!!!
3 years minimum
I still believe him.
