The former 'Empire' actor was recently sentenced to 30 months felony probation with 150 days in jail for faking a hate crime.

.

'New York Post' reports Smollett's lawyers are demanding his release from jail following "dangerous threats" he's received.

One such threat was received by Smollett's sibling, according to the actor's representative.

I hope what they do to that guy in jail — here’s what they’re going to do, right.

They’re going to take a broom handle, and take that little [expletive], shove it in there, and he’s gonna go, ‘[shrieking sound].’, Video of phone call to Smollett's sibling, according to his representatives, as reported by 'New York Post'.

"Vicious threats" Smollett has received on social media are also being cited in the argument for his release.

[The nature of the posts] no doubt reflects the hatred and wish for physical harm toward Smollett which he may experience during incarceration.

Smollett was first placed in the psych ward and restrained due to what his brother refers to as paperwork issues.

As of March 15, his brother says Smollett has been moved to a jail cell with a bed.

His former co-star, Taraji P.

Henson, took to Instagram to also call for his release from jail.

I am not here to debate you on his innocence but we can agree that the punishment does not fit the crime... No one was hurt or killed during Jussie’s ordeal.

He has already lost everything, EVERYTHING!, Taraji P.

Henson, via Instagram.

To me as an artist not able to create that in itself is punishment enough.

He can’t get a job.

No one in Hollywood will hire him and again as an artist who loves to create, that is prison, Taraji P.
