Person 2- "Yeah, I might have gone too far, I don't want to "Smollett" myself "

To get away with a crime by having attorneys sell their souls for you, by acting disturbingly arrogant while professing innocence, even in the face of overwhelming evidence, and by using your fame as a weapon.
O.J. smolletted, fooled a group of ignorant jurors even though he killed two people, and hid out on a golf course for many years. Jussie smolletted but still thought he'd have a career and be able to show his face in public.
