Jussie Smollett sues city of Chicago for malicious prosecution<\/h3>\n

Jussie Smollett says the $10,000 he was mandated to pay after the criminal case against him was closed should prevent the city of Chicago from seeking reimbursement for the police investigation following his claim, back in January 2019, that he was a victim of a racist and homophobic attack.<\/p>\n

Attorneys for the former “Empire” actor filed a response Tuesday to Chicago\u2019s lawsuit in federal court. They also filed a counterclaim against the city, saying Smollett was the victim of a malicious prosecution that caused humiliation and extreme distress.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“This is MAGA country.”<\/p>\n

In January, Smollett told police he was attacked by two masked men as he was walking home from a Chicago Subway sandwich shop at approximately 2 a.m. The openly gay actor alleged that the masked men beat him, taunted him with homophobic and racial slurs and yelled, “This is MAGA country.”<\/p>\n

In February, police determined that Smollett’s masked assailants were brothers Abel and Ola Osundairo, who trained Smollett and worked with him on “Empire.” Authorities also identified the brothers as those on surveillance video purchasing the rope that was reportedly hung around Jussie’s neck during the alleged attack.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Guess that comparison to a twelve year old girl stung. <\/p>\n

\nJussie Smollett hit back at a social media user who compared his alleged hate crime hoax to a 12-year-old girl who recently admitted she made up a story about how her dreadlocks were cut off by her white schoolmates.<\/p>\n

Journalist Derrick Jackson posted a comment on Instagram that read, “Jussie really is a trendsetter,” insinuating that the young girl, Amari Allen, took a page from Smollett’s alleged book of lies.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Jussie can dish it out, but doesn’t see the humor when he’s the joke. Hat tip to our ninja for the link.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
