The"Empire" actor is facing felony charges for allegedly faking a hate crime against himself and reporting it to police.A grand jury indicted “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett on 16 felony counts for allegedly faking a hate crime against himself and reporting it to police in Chicago, according to reports.Smollett, 36, was arrested two weeks earlier and charged with a felony of disorderly conduct for falsely reporting to police that he was a victim of a racist and homophobic attack.
As police and the FBI launched an investigation into Smollett’s attack, the focus shifted to the actor. In late February, Chicago Police Superintendent Eddie Johnson accused Smollett of lying about the attackPolice also accused Smollett of sending himself a letter filled with homophobic and racial slurs, then paying two brothers $3,500 to stage an attack.. They also accused police of carrying out an “organized law enforcement spectacle” against Smollett.
What an absolute fool all this in the name of fame, well if you didnt know who he was before, you do now and it's not a good look.
Any bets he gets a longer sentence than Manafort. What a system.
Well he has been falsely pretending to be an actor for years so it’s selfish business as usual I guess.
