Chicago prosecutors are overplaying their hand on Jussie Smollett

When Allahpundit wrote about the laundry list of felony charges dumped on Jussie Smollett by the grand jury yesterday, he noted that there are still plenty of options on the table for plea deals or other maneuvers that could keep the Empire actor out of prison. More to the point, I think, is the possibility that Smollett might lose the battle in federal court but win the war in the court of public opinion. The seeming duplications showing up in the disorderly conduct charges are making this look like more of a dogpile than any message about not tolerating hate crime hoaxes, and the actor probably knows that will play in his favor at work and among his fans.
