So why are they keeping the ten thousand dollars in bail money?
Why did they say that forfeit and some sort of "community service" made this a "just outcome"?
Why did Michelle Obama stick her oar in?
Is this just "friends in high places"?
Because there's no word of the police resuming investigation of the alleged attack in order to find "who really did it".
Smollett was then labeled as a suspect in his own alleged assault and arrested in February.
Prosecutors and police said Smollett allegedly paid the Osundairo brothers $3,500 via a check to attack him and also gave them money to buy the supplies they would need to carry out the hoax crime.
He was released from jail after posting $10,000 of his $100,000 bond.
The Cook County State's Attorney's Office said Tuesday that after reviewing the case, Smollett's volunteer service and his willingness to turn his bond over to the city, "we believe this outcome is a just disposition and appropriate resolution to this case."
Rahm Emanuel and the police insist at about 3:00 pm this is not on the level, this is a whitewash, this is a coverup, Jussie got off because of privilege and influence, the state's attorney betrayed justice, and Smollet is guilty.
In a trial all the evidence would have come out.
Because of this deal all the evidence has been sealed by the judge and no one will ever see it.
From top to bottom, this is wrong.
Emanuel and the police are really angry.
One standard for the privileged, says Emanuel, and another for the rest of us.
No accountability for the powerful.
Oh, and the cost to the city of the investigation and proceedings to date is way, way more than ten thousand, said Emanuel.
