It looks like Jussie Smollett is going to get a mere slap on the wrist for allegedly lying to police and manufacturing a fake hate crime against himself to libel half the country as evil racists.

From ABC 7 Chicago:

"Empire" actor Jussie Smollett has been charged with one count of felony disorderly conduct for filing a false police report, the Cook County State's Attorney's Office said Wednesday evening.

Smollett is due in court in Chicago at 1:30 p.m. Thursday. Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi said CPD detectives will make contact with Smollett's legal team to "negotiate a reasonable surrender for his arrest."

Smollett is not in custody at this time. Guglielmi told ABC News police are not actively looking for the actor because "this is not a violent crime," but said "the longer this goes, the more we have to do what we have to do."

Smollett faces at most one and a half years in prison. The Nigerian brothers who allegedly helped him stage this fake hate crime are not facing any charges.

Reporter Andy Ngo said rank and file officers are "angry" with the decision:

Source tells me that the rank and file officers at CPD are angry at how their PR is coddling Smollett with comments like this. He is wanted for a felony offense & his location remains unknown. https://t.co/0HXLNfVUuz pic.twitter.com/XgAnmKsBZn

This was, allegedly, what amounts to a criminal conspiracy to generate racial animus against around half the country just for the sake of career advancement.

.@JussieSmollett lawyers said, "Like any other citizen, Mr. Smollett enjoys the presumption of innocence”. You know who else deserved a presumption of innocence? The white male, heterosexuals & Trump supporters who their client smeared as racist homophobes https://t.co/JlsD6HLHhd

Smollett may still have to answer for the terroristic letter he allegedly had sent to himself through the mail:

Reminder: Smollett could also face federal charges if it's found he lied to FBI agents or U.S. Postal Inspectors who were investigating that "hate" letter he said he received. https://t.co/mdWPdfIugP

We'll have to wait and see whether the FBI lets him off with just a slap on the wrist as well.
