More like an untreated mental disorder, but whatever.

quote:

Now, Smollett is saying he has an untreated drug problem, which some see as a way for him to mitigate chances of jail time should that become a possibility with the legal fallout:

Jussie Smollett told cops he has an untreated drug problem — raising questions about whether he might try to use the claim to at least get any potential prison sentence reduced, according to a report Friday.

Prosecutors said Abimbola “Abel” Osundairo, one of the brothers who helped Smollett allegedly stage the Jan. 29 hate attack, served as Smollett’s drug dealer, selling him Molly several times since the spring of 2018.

The 36-year-old actor, in claiming to have a drug problem, could be paving the way to use it as a “mitigating factor” when it comes to sentencing, the site said.

Let’s all pray that Jussie can heal and get to a better place. Let’s use this to have a conversation.

Understandable. Whenever someone dips into some molly they immediately want to sit down with Robin Roberts on national television and make up stories about being the victim of a made up hate crime while crying. It’s a well known side effect.

Good thing drugs are very difficult to obtain in maximum security prison. He should be totally clean by the time he gets released in a few years.

Dude's posturing in order to 1) get his charge reduced to a misdemeanor, and 2) salvage what's left of his career.

Mark my words, the race-baiting little bitch will have both the media and Hollywood back in his corner pretty soon.

That doesn’t change the fact that at his core he’s a narcissistic liar and racist.

Recreational drug use when he’s out dick shopping doesn’t change that fact.

It will fail miserably. One must prove that due to intoxication or insanity that he knew not the difference between right and wrong at the time of commission of the offense. There was much preparation in this case, not to mention the DA surely will attempt to bring in evidence of other crimes, specifically the letter hoax. They should try, and it could easily be admitted. In that case there would be shown an ongoing criminal enterprise over however long tht period was covering the letter up to Chicago hoax. The likelihood of convincing anyone that there was not a moment in that timeframe in which Jussie should have known of the criminality of his actions due to drug fueled insanity....throughout that entire period....good frickin luck. About 90% of all defendants in fed and state courts could use this with success if it werent damn near impossible to execute. Tl;dr

Pardon me, ETA
....the standard is actually not able to know the diff between right and wrong and was "utterly incapable" of forming the necessary intent as required by law. Lol naw.
