Why do you think Jussie Smollett may have faked a hate crime?

There is another question about the Smollett case, but it is more about the media and I’d like to ask about Smollett himself.
Nothing has been proven yet, but the evidence suggests that Smollett faked the hate crime he claimed happened on January 29th in Chicago. He has now been arrested by Chicago PD.
Why would someone fake a hate crime? What kind of damage do you think this will do to believing people’s accounts of hate crimes in the future? What kind of punishment should Smollett face?
