Judge Lets Bad Actor Jussie Smollett Walk Free
17 Mar 2022
CLAY: Jussie Smollett has been allowed to be released. He spent less than a week in a Chicago prison as his appeal is being considered. So, a judge allowed him to be released to allow his appeal to his convictions to process.
I think it’s the wrong call. I think that Jussie Smollett belonged in prison. The chances of his appeal being granted and found to be with merit, I believe — and this is me putting my lawyer hat on here — very slim. And Jussie Smollett, who claims that the entire world is rigged against him, boy, he sure is getting an awful lot of white privilege, huh, Buck, for a gay black man?
BUCK: I’m sitting here wondering what exactly is the appeal even going to be based on? I mean, to say that they have this guy absolutely, clearly —
CLAY: Dead to rights. Yeah.
BUCK: Yeah. They got video of the guys he paid getting the noose and — I mean, the whole thing it’s so crazy. But I’ll tell you something. I think Jussie Smollett — I think he has problems — like, real mental.
CLAY: You think he might be psychologically — if you come up with this idea, you’re psychologically —
BUCK: I think he’s basically gone crazy. Either that, or maybe this is the greatest acting job of his career.
CLAY: He’s not that great of an actor.
BUCK: I’ve actually never seen him.
CLAY: He’s not that good of an actor, in the grand scheme of things.
