Jussie Smollett conviction in hate crime hoax overturned by Illinois Supreme Court
#MAGACountry
According to the News,
The actor told police in January 2019 that he was the victim of a hate crime, having been brutally attacked in Chicago’s Streeterville neighborhood because he is Black and gay. Two men — brothers Ola and Abimbola Osundairo — were arrested in the investigation.
But the Chicago Police Department later said that Smollett recruited the brothers to help him stage the attack.
Smollett was arrested in February 2019 and indicted that March on 16 felony counts over allegedly filing a false police report. The charges were later dropped, however, by the Cook County State's Attorney's Office.
