Chicago sues actor Jussie Smollett for $130 000
Chicago - The City of Chicago filed a lawsuit on Thursday against Jussie Smollett, saying the actor owes it over $130 000 for police costs incurred in the investigation of a hate crime that authorities allege was phony, according to legal documents.
Chicago officials previously said they would sue Smollett after he refused a demand by the city for $130 000 to cover police overtime costs. Smollett, 36, who is black and gay, ignited a firestorm on social media by telling police on January 29 that two apparent supporters of President Donald Trump struck him, put a noose around his neck and poured bleach over him while yelling racist and homophobic slurs on a Chicago street.
