Jussie Said They're Out to Get Him... & Some MUCH Needed Perspective

I’m sure by now, you’ve heard former "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett has spent his first couple nights in jail after being sentenced on Thursday to 5 months (150 days) in jail plus 2 ½ years probation (30 months). He also has to pay restitution of more than $120,000 and a $25,000 fine after being found guilty of making false reports to police that he was the victim of a hate crime in January 2019. 

I’m glad this is FINALLY over… feels like soooo much wasted time in our court system. BUT this is what got me at the sentencing: when Jussie said, “…I am not suicidal. And if anything happens to me when I go in there, I did not do it to myself. And you must all know that.” What does THAT mean? Is he trying to say there’s a hit on him or that it’s dangerous?

And there’s also an amazing article in Rolling Stone that explains and puts this whole thing in perspective that you have to read... I understood it a lot better from this point of view because it's something I never would've thought before.
