Actor Jussie Smollett on Thursday was found guilty on five of six counts of felony disorderly conduct for staging a hate crime hoax and blood libeling all white people by paying his alleged Nigerian gay sex partners to dress up as white Trump supporters and attack him while shouting racial epithets.

WATCH:

From AP, "Jussie Smollett convicted of staging attack, lying to police":

Former “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett was convicted Thursday on charges he staged an anti-gay, racist attack on himself nearly three years ago and then lied to Chicago police about it.

In the courtroom as the verdict was read, Smollett stood and faced the jury, showing no visible reaction.

The jury found the 39-year-old guilty on five counts of disorderly conduct — for each separate time he was charged with lying to police in the days immediately after the alleged attack. He was acquitted on a sixth count, of lying to a detective in mid-February, weeks after Smollett said he was attacked.

Special prosecutor Dan Webb spoke out about the case after the guilty verdict came in:

The entire Democratic establishment threw their support behind Smollett after he staged his anti-white blood libel and cowardly sellout Republicans led by South Carolina Senator Tim Scott even got on board to help pass an outrageously broad "anti-lynching" hate crime bill off it.

What happened today to @JussieSmollett must never be tolerated in this country. We must stand up and demand that we no longer give this hate safe harbor; that homophobia and racism have no place on our streets or in our hearts. We are with you, Jussie. https://t.co/o8ilPu68CM

.@JussieSmollett is one of the kindest, most gentle human beings I know. I’m praying for his quick recovery.

This was an attempted modern day lynching. No one should have to fear for their life because of their sexuality or color of their skin. We must confront this hate.

The reported hate attack on my friend and brother, actor Jussie Smollett is despicable and outrageous. The guilty must face the maximum.

Racism, homophobia, & all forms of bigotry & hate have no place in this country. The fight for equality isn’t over – no one should have to live in fear of being beaten on the street because of who they are. https://t.co/CF0G95CkTc

The racist and homophobic attack on Jussie Smollett is a horrific instance of the surging hostility toward minorities around the country. We must come together to eradicate all forms of bigotry and violence. https://t.co/2accVEJrCG

The vicious attack on actor Jussie Smollett was an attempted modern-day lynching. I'm glad he's safe.

To those in Congress who don't feel the urgency to pass our Anti-Lynching bill designating lynching as a federal hate crime– I urge you to pay attention. https://t.co/EwXFxl5f2m

This is a sickening and outrageous attack, and horribly, it's the latest of too many hate crimes against LGBTQ people and people of color. We are all responsible for condemning this behavior and every person who enables or normalizes it. Praying for Jussie and his family. https://t.co/eylvxhLT0u

There is no such thing as “racially charged.”

This attack was not “possibly” homophobic. It was a racist and homophobic attack.

If you don’t like what is happening to our country, then work to change it. It is no one’s job to water down or sugar-coat the rise of hate crimes. https://t.co/QAi0IYtSeR

[UPDATE: AOC just deleted the above tweet.]

What happened to Jussie Smollett is vile and tragic; thankfully, he will recover. But hate crimes like this are happening more frequently, egged on by careless hate-filled rhetoric. We start reducing these crimes by rejecting the speech - neither can ever be accepted as normal.

It came out in court that Smollett did drugs and went to gay bathhouses to have sex with one of his alleged "attackers."

BREAKING: Jussie Smollett testified he did drugs and masturbated with one of his attackers https://t.co/X1rznhrRDK

From VICE, "Jussie Smollett Testified He Did Drugs and Masturbated With His Attacker":

Jussie Smollett finally took the stand in his bizarre trial Monday and testified that he once masturbated with one of the men he’s accused of hiring to attack him for attention.

Smollett said it all went down during a visit to a bathhouse with Abimbola Osundairo, one of the two brothers Smollett is accused of paying to beat him up, yell racist slurs, and pour bleach on him in January 2019.

"We went alone, we got a private room again," Smollett recalled in the courtroom Monday, according to Chicago Tribune reporter Jason Meisner. "We made out a little bit, and this time we masturbated together.”

Smollett also testified that after he met Osundairo at a club, they made out and did drugs during a different bathhouse interaction in Boystown, the Chicago Tribune reported.

"Judge James Linn set a post-trial hearing for Jan. 27, and said he would schedule Smollett’s sentencing at a later date," the AP reported Thursday evening. "Disorderly conduct is a class 4 felony that carries a prison sentence of up to three years, but experts have said if convicted, Smollett would likely be placed on probation and ordered to perform community service."

Chicago Police had "roughly two dozen detectives" spend some "3,000 hours" investigating this "hate crime" and yet we're being told Smollett isn't going to spend a day in prison for staging this blood libel.

This is what real "privilege" looks like!
