“Empire” actor Jussie Smollett has been found guilty on five counts of felony disorderly conduct for making false reports to police about being a victim of a hate crime in January 2019. His lawyer says they will appeal. Each guilty count is punishable by up to 3 years in prison and a $25,000 fine. The judge will have discretion in imposing a concurrent or consecutive sentence for each of the five counts. What should his sentence be? Given that Smollett's false accusations stirred up racial hatred, should he also be charged with a hate crime? Should he be required to pay back the city of Chicago for the resources wasted in investigating his faked assault?
