Watch: Jussie Smollett Back in Court Appealing His Conviction for Lying About Racist ‘Maga’ Attack

Simon Kent 13 Sep 2023

An Illinois appellate court heard Tuesday it should toss the disgraced former Empire star Jussie Smollett’s convictions for staging a racist, homophobic attack against himself in 2019 and then lying about it to Chicago police.

Judges heard arguments for less than an hour contesting Smollett’s 2021 convictions with the actor’s legal counsel proposing anger over the case led to properly dismissed charges being improperly restored.

AP reports Smollett slipped into court for the hour-long oral arguments and sat on spectator benches. He reportedly watched proceedings intently, leaning forward to follow the debate before the three-judge panel.
