      A judge has set a $100,000 bond for "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett. The 36-year-old actor said little other than giving his name at the beginning of the hearing.http://apne.ws/noqEXdx

          If I was the judge I would make him apologize to the city and maybe wear one of those sandwich boards that says, "I lied" for a day...

          What about the presumption of innocence and the right to remain silent??? I'm sure he has an Attorney but it has been my experience if you remain silent the police locked me in a padded room after they threatened my life and stripped me naked! No blanket no toilet paper Cold cell

          Idk why everyone is attacking him so much. If trump wasn’t so intolerant he wouldn’t have felt the need to do this. Self sacrifice for the greater good, but I guess trump supporters don’t read the Bible 🙄

          This I terrible, I agree, but it pales in comparison to what the POTUS and his team of liars an thieves have done and are getting away with. This should not be headline news when Trump, Trump Jr, Kushner, Manafort, Stone... (and on and on and on) exist in this world.
