Jussie Smollett's bail has been set at $100,000 and he was ordered to surrender his passport at a bond hearing where he was supported by his family and prosecutors shared more details of his relationship with the two Nigerian brothers he allegedly paid to stage a hoax attack.
Three of the actor's five famous siblings, Jurnee, Jocqui and Jake, were pictured arriving at the Cook County Criminal Court before his bond hearing wearing sunglasses. They were later joined by their brother Jojo but their other sister Jurnee and mother Janet were not seen.
A judge set the actor's bail at $100,000 - the amount he gets paid for one episode of Empire - and told him to surrender his passport. It is unclear how much he will be required to pay of it but defendants are ordinarily required to pay at least 10 percent of their total bail amount. Smollett will return to court on March 14.
