He most likely won't be sent to jail. That would be a violation of the 8th amendment of excessive punishment. He might get a fine that will probably be dismissed. It's more like, one of those test cases that establishes boundaries of what people can and can't do.
Not only that, but if he loses, which he most likely won't, that doesn't effect public rights to free speech.
