We will take a look at and discuss recent news concerning the actor Jussie Smollett who stood accused and charged for allegedly staging a hate crime in Chicago. According to Chicago news media outlet WGN,
Cook County prosecutors dropped all charges against actor Jussie Smollett Tuesday. He had been charged with 16 counts of disorderly conduct after Chicago police say he staged a racial and homophobic attack in the city in January. Those charges will be now be wiped from Smollett’s record. Smollett performed recent community service, Monday and Saturday, with the Rainbow Push Coalition.
