Jussie Smollett’s legal team files for release pending appeal in emergency motion
Fox News
Lawyers for Jussie Smollet are asking a judge for a stay regarding his 150-day sentence and/or to grant the actor bail pending the status of his court appeal.
"Mr. Smollett has become the target of vicious threats in the social media forums which no doubt reflects the hatred and wish for physical harm towards Smollett which he may experience during incarceration," the filing reads. On Monday, TMZ shared alleged "harassing" messages to Smollett's siblings aimed toward the actor.
"Mr. Smollett anticipates he will most likely be assigned to segregated incarceration or protective custody, both euphemisms for solitary confinement; a situation which could have extraordinary damage on his mental health," the filing continues. "As a result, any custodial setting poses a safety and health danger to the life of Mr. Smollett."
