Thanks, all, for confirmation the letter went through USPS. That was not smart of him (assuming he mailed it to himself). Federal offense!

Are convicted perpetrators of real crimes required to reimburse for detective time and lab expenditures, etc.? If not, why treat this any differently? The CPD investigated this crime and found the perps and they'll be prosecuted just like any other perps, and be sentenced just like any other perps. If that always means restitution for CPD costs, so be it; if not, so be that.

To my thinking, CPD was not "forced" into devoting extra resources on this assault case, they chose to based on We The People who raised such a hullaballoo because it was a case that touched so many hot buttons for so many groups in our super-reactionary society. High profile cases almost always take away resources from other cases; this one seems to be a hoax crime, and that's why false reporting is a crime - so it can be prosecuted just like other crimes.

Criminals are required to and sentence to reimbursing victims all over the US every day. When those victims are private citizens. In some jurisdictions part of sentencing is to reimburse the County for days in Jail. When a hoax and false report is filed, it causes unnecessary damages to the taxpayers of the jurisdiction. That should be remedied in my opinion. This was not a simple "assault case". It was intentionally laid out as many other factors to incite the community and as well nation. It was intentional in nature, and frankly for financial gain as well. "We The People" stood behind the initial outrage of what he reported. He treated "We The People" as fools and therefor should pay dearly, and part with some of that money as well.

They could have one of the Nigerian brothers replace him! He's been coaching them on acting.

Now that would be some type of Cinderella story!! If only Fox could whitewash the circumstances behind it, I bet they'd try it.

Good to know you heard it on your car radio. Is there a chance Jussie will see it on the Chicago billboards on his way to court? :D

By pretending to have gone scuba-diving in Lake Michigan? All it takes is leaving behind a Subway sandwich with DNA at the beach.

Eek - this makes it sound like he is suicidal. I hope that is not the case and he is with someone who is responsible and will bring him to LE.
