Jussie Smollett has been found guilty of staging his own racist and homophobic attack in Chicago. The former "Empire" actor, who is Black and gay, claimed he was attacked in January of 2019 by two men yelling racist and anti-gay remarks, wearing MAGA hats. The jury deliberated for more than nine hours. He faces up to three years in prison, but most legal experts say it's more likely he'll be placed on probation and be ordered to perform community service.
