Chicago to sue actor Jussie Smollett via SABCNewsOnline

The lawsuit was being prepared after Smollett refused a demand by the city for $130 000, said Bill McCaffrey, a spokesman for the city’s Department of Law.

“The Law Department is now drafting a civil complaint that will be filed in the Circuit Court of Cook Country.”th But the actor, best known for his role as a gay musician on the Fox Television hip-hop drama Empire, was charged in February with staging the incident himself and filing a false police report.

On Monday, some 300 people, including off-duty Chicago police officers, took to the streets to protest, calling on Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx to resign over her handling of the case.
