0:51Now PlayingThe curtain is closing on Jussie Smollett's hate hoax saga.
The disgraced actor, 39, will be sentenced Thursday at the George N. Leighton criminal courthouse in Chicago three months after a jury found him guilty of lying to police following his eight-day trial in December.
Smollett, who was convicted on five counts of felony disorderly conduct and acquitted of a sixth, is facing up to three years in prison, but it'll be up to Judge James Linn if he gets any time at all.
Legal experts have said it's unlikely Smollett will be given a prison sentence considering his mostly clean criminal record and the non-violent nature of the charges, which are low-level, Class 4 felonies.
